Mounting ceiling speakers in a wall?

I have a 7.1 surround sound receiver. I bought a 5.1 speaker set and am buying 2 additional speakers for the middle satellite speakers. I need in-wall speakers for logistic reasons. Most of the in-wall speakers are too big for the location I need but the round shape of the in-ceiling speakers would work.

Are there any issues with using in-ceiling speakers in a side-wall?

I did the same thing using a 9.1 system. Basically make sure of the depth of the wall. Some inner walls are not deep enough to accommodate the speaker. I used Polk, a little more expensive but the end result was satisfying considering that you don't want to be cutting into your drywall and running cable more than once.

how can I hook my in-wall speakers to my computer so I can play Mp3's throughout my house?

I'm going to put about 4 speakers mounted flush in my ceiling and about 3 outdoors on my back patio. This is what I want. I want to be able to play Mp3's from my computer and it play through those speakers. Is there a better way of doing this? What will it cost? Any recommendations? Are there any ALL-IN-ONE type packages for this? I don't have the speakers, wire or anything yet. Just trying to get it all together. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Most speakers will be able to plug into the headphone jack in the audio card. Wires are dirt cheap, and speakers cost what they do. It depends on the speakers. Just make sure they have a 3.5 mm headphone jack.

There are many good in wall speakers. Paradigm is a good speaker for the price. Stay away from the mass market brands (pioneer, sony, etc) if you want real quality. Klipsch, definitive technology, schnell, M & K are all very good as well. I suggest you visit as many audio/home theater stores to listen for yourself. Everyone has their own preference.

A recent trend in home cinemas is the use of both "in wall" and even "in ceiling speakers" that offer the listener the benefit of an extra dimension in their audio listening experience, while storing the satellite speakers themselves out of sight and out of mind. The appeal of having speakers mounted in wall cavities is particularly appealing in modern apartments where a minimalist approach is applied. The fact is that without encroaching on space, some fantastic results are possible and are well within the means of the average home cinema owner.

Unlike a normal speaker that is mounted in a cabinet, the diver of an in-wall or in-ceiling speaker is mounted in a frame that is set into the wall directly. What often happens is that you receive additional bass from the wall itself that would be missing from a speaker of the same size. The only difference between an in-ceiling speaker and an in-wall speaker is that the in-wall speaker is positioned in the wall and the in-ceiling speaker, the ceiling above. For some reason in-ceiling speakers are generally round and in-wall speaker rectangular in size.

When installing wall speakers, the most fundamental factor is the rigidity and size of the speaker cavities. It is important to get the job done properly or the frequency response of the overall system may be adversely affected.

The speaker technology itself should be carefully considered too, although other than choosing a speaker set of a good size, mounted speaker sets are compared in exactly the same way as any other speakers. Factors to consider are: frequency response, power handling, efficiency and features.

Probably the most crucial factor when installing ceiling speakers is their positioning as this can directly affect the quality of the sound. While this may be true of just about any speaker system, it applies more so for a ceiling installation as it is difficult to change the position of the speakers once they've been set up. To provide for positional changes, many systems have adopted a pivotal bass unit and tweeter. While a conventional in ceiling system will only direct the sound in a downward direction, the ability to pivot speakers allows you to focus the sound to suit your position in the room.

Whichever actual speaker system you end up choosing, the advantages of a surround sound wall and ceiling speakers are clear, enabling you to enjoy top quality audio output within a minimalist design blending seamlessly with your decor. The most visible hint is a wall mounted grill that looks very discrete and is barely noticeable.

Plasma TV Owners: How did you brace your wall to hang the unit?

I recently got a 50" Panasonic Plasma TV (TH-50PX60U) with a Sanus Flat Panel TV Mount (VMSAs) that tilts, swivels, and pans. The instruction manual with the tv mount says the wall should be able to handle 5 times the weight of the plasma tv plus the weight of the actual mount. That is roughly 550 pounds. How in the world do I beef up my wall to safely handle that? We live in an old house with plaster walls and I would like to hang it above the fireplace. Can you give me any advice? Thank you!
Thanks for the comments so far. Just to clarify, we do not use the fireplace - the tv would look very nice in this location!

First things first, I seriously doubt that the mfg. of the TV will warrant the TV if you hang it over a fireplace. I know you see all those pretty pics of TVs over fireplaces but they cannot handle the heat, most have an automatic shut off when they reach a certain temp.

The const of the wall around your fireplace may not have wood studs, hopefully it does, you must locate those studs and the weight you are talking about you will need to hit three studs with a wall bracket and that bracket will need to be bolted to the studs with at least two 3" lag bolts on each stud.

The lath on the wall is probably wood lath over which the plaster was spread, I've seen situations where the homeowner opened the wall to expose the studs and then attached 3/4" plywood to the studs to this they could bolt the mounting bracket distributing the load over the studs. This plywood could then be finished out to match the wall.

Again- carefully consider the mfg. recommendations regarding fireplaces.

Those who have put in the expense to build a "theater" in their home need to be sure the sound and visual and placement of seating is just right before they'll delve into decorating, but when that time comes, there are some tips to add to the room aesthetically without taking away any of the functionality.

A room of this sort is bound to have floor speakers, and speakers that surround your peripherals and centrally located speakers for both the front and back of the sitting area. In some of the newer homes or the more expensive remodels, some, if not all, of these speakers may be placed in the walls of the home. Yet usually the floor speakers will remain out and near the television. The tops of which may be a prime opportunity for knickknacks when decorating. There may be shelving on the walls in this room for speakers or for remote controls. Those shelves are also a great place for decorative touches.

A typical theater room is designed something like this: The television is centrally located either mounted on the wall or standing just in front of it. There are floor speakers on either side of the television and another smaller speaker centrally located above the TV. There will be more speakers either mounted or on stands placed on either side of the seating area and one more speaker centrally located behind the seating area. Finally, there will be a special speaker called a subwoofer placed somewhere to the side of the seating area. The seating area is located around what some refer to as the "sweet spot" because during the action scenes in intense movies when the music swells, the vibrations of that sound are felt in the seating area. All of this is necessary for the functionality of the theater room. What's left is what you have to decorate.

In order to keep the functionality of a theater room, you must realize that the room needs to be dark. This is no room for growing plants or bright colors painted on the wall. Rich earthy tones will work here. Along with this, keep knickknacks to a minimum. This room is for viewing the television, not your china collection. Do not place fragile things in this room. There will be much vibration in this room and that may cause a fragile item to fall from its perch and break. Keep your decor simple here. Use rugs to add color to the room and hang pictures to add depth to the walls. Do not clutter up this room with much more than this.

Before anything else, a home theater needs to be functional. If you'll also entertain in this room, keep your decor to a minimum and use unbreakable items. Add color through the means discussed above and be okay with a sparsely decorated room. It will provide much enjoyment and sometimes simple really is best.

Home theater in-wall speaker wire??

If bought a Harman Kardon 6.1 surround system and I got wiring through the walls but the wires run in the same pipe as the A/C wires, I've read many articles, ones say there shouldn't be any problem as the speaker cables carry strong signals a thus are not affected by the interference from A/C wire but others say they are affected and in order to avoid interference they must be placed at least 16 inches from each other. I'm really confused, I would like to know what can I do, is there going to be any problem, should I run new ducts through the wall or can it be fixed just with switching to shielded wire??

Thanks in advance.

I'm curious why your speaker wires are running inside pipes in your walls, that's strange for a residence. Generally you want your speaker wires to cross any AC lines perpendicularly to reduce any interference, but the best judge of whether there is a problem is your ears. It won't hurt your new system to try out the speakers, so long as you are sure you are plugging in the speaker wires and not an AC live wire (but you'd probably figure that out long before you got it near your stereo!). Take a listen, if there is a noticible hiss or distortion you'll probably want to re-run the wires inside the wall away from any AC lines, you can tell this by looking for any outlets or switches nearby.

A video tape degrades with time because it is made of magnetic media. What you see ten, twenty years later is nowhere as sharp as when the tapes were first created. So, what is the shelf life of a magnetic tape (which includes Betamax, VHS, 8mm and mini-DV)?

If you ask a professional or a photo studio that question, the answer you get can range anywhere between 5 to 10 years. This is because it depends a lot on how 1) you handle it, 2) how you store it and 3) how often you played and rewound it - as opposed to letting it sit for years and years. Here are some tips to extend the shelf life of your tapes:

How to Handle Your Video Tapes

Â• Never touch the tape itself. Hold it by the side of the cassette

Â• Rewind the cassette before storing it.

Â• Keep away from curious kids, avoid dropping or banging the tapes.

Â• Keep cassettes away from magnetic fields

Â• Don't leave a cassette in the car where it will be exposed to heat and cold

Â• If using a new cassette and it's still cold, let it warm up to room temperature first.

Â• Occasionally fast forward and rewind a tape that's being stored a long time.

Where to Store Your Video Tapes

The conditions in which magnetic tape is stored and used can extend its shelf life. Observe these video storage tips:

Â• Store in conditions that are stable, cool and dry.

Â• Stay away from hot, humid and dusty.

Â• Store cassettes in the cassette case.

Â• Store your tapes vertically and not flat (see picture) to distribute the gravity pull equally and stably.

But why wait in the first place? The best transfer quality you can get is YESTERDAY. The longer you wait, the more chances you are taking about the tape magnetic media degrading Not to mention video transfer costs don't go down, they only increase.

Ceiling / wall speakers acoustic performance?

I heard that when mounting ceiling or wall speakers you'll get better sound acoustics and speaker performance if you insert insulation or some other type of baffeling material to help tune the speaker. Anyone ever tried this? Does it help?

Yes, In most cases it should help. Check the recommendations of the manufacturer. Some speakers are designed to work in open spaces. Most in walls are designed to work IN walls.
If it is new construction I usually build a box 1ft X the width of stud or joist out of MDF (medium density fiberboard) Then I caulk the box and put insulation inside it. This will dampen resonance and inhibit the sound from traveling up into the attic or walls, and coming out into nearby rooms.

You will also want to put a protective cloth around the speaker if it is going to be exposed to any loose insulation. Better yet is to use a rear baffle. This is a must if you have blown in insulation in your ceiling. Many inwall/ceiling speaker manufacturers make these. You can find them online at Partexpress.com. or check with the manufacturer of the speakers you are buying to see if they make them.

It is important to know how to get the most out of your speakers. Speakers are an integral part of your home's media equipment. They provide audio outputs such as ambiance sounds and dialogues. Speakers give an edge to clarity, pitch, and depth of sound. A quality speaker enhances the quality of any musical experience.

If you are interested in getting the most out of your speakers without breaking the bank, then here are few tips on which areas ensure a better speaker performance.

Speakers are the keystone of audio output. In a home theatre system there are basic types of speaker placements: The right and left front speakers, the direct centre speaker, the surround sound speakers and the sub woofer system speakers. It is important for all of the speakers to provide the optimum output to ensure a realistic audio experience.

Front speakers produce the soundtrack and the effect sounds. There are different types of front right and left speakers categorized by their placement in the room. The most common types of front right and left speakers are floor speakers, book-shelf speakers and the satellite speaker system.

Floor speakers - These speakers are used with a home theatre system. They are usually large and the sound quality of these speakers is superb. The form, color, and material of the floor speakers can be planned to match with the decor of the room. A decor with traditional furniture and tapestry should have floor speakers with wood finish. Black colored speakers are good for a room with modern furnishings. The floor speakers can also be custom made for your requirement. On the downside, they are usually expensive and can take up lot of space.

Bookshelf Speakers - These speakers are smaller than floor speakers and work very well in a limited space. They are less expensive than their larger counterparts. There is a disadvantage with them, bookshelf speakers cannot produce low-pitched frequencies very well, but there is a solution, you can attach a powerful subwoofer system to enhance the bass.

Subwoofer and satellite speaker systems - These speakers are little geniuses. Tiny yet superbly equipped to give you the experience of full sound. The subwoofer is little bigger than the satellites but can be placed anywhere in a room and their performance will not be hindered. The satellites are small enough to fit anywhere, from walls to ceilings, tabletops to shelves. The most important advantage of the Subwoofer and satellite speaker system is that it matches different types of interior decorations.

Direct channel speakers do the majority of the work of producing the audio output, as it provides the dialogue and almost half of the soundtrack.

Surround sound speakers provide the ambient sound of an audiovisual presentation. These speakers give the experience of a movie theatre. The surround sound effect provides a 360-degree sound experience. The most popular types of surround sound speakers are in-ceiling and in-wall speakers. These are no different from the other speakers. In-ceiling and in-wall speakers as the names suggest, are installed within the walls and the ceiling. These speakers have been used for commercial purposes for a long time and now they are used for residential purpose. These speakers blend easily with the decor of the room as they are available in a variety of colours. It is important for in-ceiling and in-wall speakers to be installed properly to enhance the output of the speakers.

Not only the speakers themselves, but also other factors such as the placement of the speakers and the quality of the accessories help to enhance the output of the audio system. These factors are,

Inter-connections and Cables - It is crucial for the audio signals to be transferred from the source to the speakers for an audio output. As the signals go through different components there is degradation in the quality of the audio output. Therefore it is important for you to ensure that the cables used for connecting the various pieces of equipment are of very good quality and you can also use contact enhancers to be sure of a good connection. It is also important to use the best quality audiovisual equipment connection that is supported by your system.

Acoustic Improvements -Making the rooms more acoustic by the use of acoustic materials can be a good solution to get the most out of your speakers. The acoustic treatment of the rooms effectively enhances the bass response and clarity of dialogue. It is also important to cut out the noise emitted from the other components of the multimedia console like projectors and other components. Sometimes such noises hamper the performance of the speakers. There is a simple solution to this problem. Build a hush box around the noisy equipment out of special acoustic material to contain the unwanted noise.

The strategic placement of acoustic panels in the room can also enhance the audio output. To ensure that the panels are placed at the perfect position, you can run a simple test. Sit down where you would usually listen to the equipment e.g. on the sofa (the listening position) and place a mirror on the wall. Move the mirror until you are able to see the speakers' reflection. Mark that spot and there would be the perfect place to position your acoustic panel.

The placement of the subwoofer system is also important. Though the low bass is non-directional, the volume of bass and its tonal quality is affected by the improper placement of the subwoofer. To get rid of this problem use a simple trick. Place the sub woofer in the listening position outlined above. Move around the room listening for place with best quality of bass. Place the sub woofers in that position.

These hints and tips will help you if you would like to know how to get the most out of your speakers.

We have all entered into offices or homes and been entertained by soothing musical melodies that seem to be emanating from invisible speakers. Because of the surround sound effect, we get to hear music in all its effects but cannot pinpoint the exact location of the said speakers. This is done deliberately by using in wall speakers. These are the next generation speakers that are well concealed either in the wall paneling, inside the roof ceiling or even behind furniture. This gives the office or room a comfortable aura that serves to relax and welcome guests.

In- wall speakers have a variety of advantages. One the advantages are that they are small. This means people with space constraints do not have to worry about where to put speakers. This is especially true because many people have been trying to reduce clutter not only in regards to paper but also in regards to paper but also as far as furniture is concerned.

Another advantage that is accrued from in-wall speakers is the fact that they are also convenient. While many still have wiring running inside the wall paneling from the tuner or receiver to the actual speakers, we now have wireless speakers meaning when installing, one need not mess with complex wiring and the speakers can be placed anywhere.

We also see an increase in in-wall speakers because they allow they reduce clutter. We mentioned this earlier. More and more offices are starting to reduce overcrowding because clutter is really a sign of disorganization. This is something that many do not want to admit. The battle to reduce clutter extends all the way to furniture. That means it is not only paper that is the culprit when it comes to clutter but excess and misplaced furniture. In-wall speakers resolve this problem quite easily.

There are some aspects of in-wall speakers that may be problematic and that are why some people avoid them. One of the issues is installation. In order to install and set up a speaker system behind your walls, you would have to take a portion of the wall apart. This means that unless you are an expert, this is something most people will simply avoid. Another disadvantage is the fact that if there is something wrong with the speakers and it becomes necessary to remove them, then it may result in you re-arranging your furniture because the speakers could be located next to major office furniture.

All in all, expect to see in-wall furniture in many offices in the future. These speakers can easily be purchases in any home theater store or electronics store. The chances are if the store stocks electronic products, it will stock in-wall speakers. There is an increasingly large number of people who buy the speakers online at places such as ubid.com, ebay.com and others. This is because when shopping online you can read reviews and you can also do a price comparison, something you cannot do with regular shopping.
