Ceiling Speakers

BuddyList

Hey John and co

We are looking at a house renovation starting in June and would like to put in some Ceiling Speakers, the goal of which would be to connect to them with our phone via Bluetooth and play music/radio as needed through it, we are thinking in Kitchen/Diner and Bathroom and also in the Sitting room, we have a Sonos sound bar with the 55" LG OLED we bought off ye 2 years ago so it would be nice to get some sound out to ceiling speakers too when watching a movie.

Do you have any ideas, or suggestions that would work for us?

Thanks!

Gary

Hi BuddyList.

Thanks for coming back to us.

There isn't really too many Bluetooth in ceiling speakers that we stock.

We do the lithe Audio range.

Or for the bathroom there is an IP44 rated one:

You do need to have a power supply near one of the speakers to plug it into unfortunately.

These are special order products (I've had to link to our ,.com site to show you them as they are not listed on our .ie site).

If you stuck with normal wired in ceilling speakers them we have a great deal on the Monitor Audio Pro 80 priced at just €99

You would need an amp/amps to run these speakers though as they would need hard wired from each speaker to the amp.

To tie in with your Sonos soundbar you could use Sonos amps to run each Zone. it would require 3 amps. One for each Zone and the one in the room with the TV can be paired with the Sonos soundbar to create rear speakers for movies and a stereo pair for listening to Music.

They are priced at €749 Each.

If you moved away from Sonos there are the excellent Wiim steaming amps but again you would require 3 of these but they are much cheaper than the Osnos. Priced at €349 Each

These would not integrate with the Sonos soundbar unfortunately when watching movies.

Let me know your thoughts.

Thanks a lot for these, lots to look at, so I will review and come back. Yeah Sonos stuff is expensive and considering we are gutting the house and starting again want to keep costs here in line. Getting power to ceiling speakers will be no issue as house is getting a full re-wire.
