SpeakerCraft ASM93811

New SpeakerCraft AIM8 One 8" AIMABLE INCEILING SPEAKER (EACH) Beautiful Speaker, Beautiful SoundBy TateBefore you read on, I want to note that I have not experienced an entire sound system made up of SpeakerCraft speakers, I was only given this one 8" ceiling one to try, but if you're questioning the quality of sound from these guys I can at least put that fear to rest - it sounded stunning.The first thing to mention, even before the sound quality, is that these speakers look, feel and scream professional. It isn't lightweight, but not heavy. Whatever material it is made of feels very sturdy in your hands and doesn't look cheap, especially the speaker grille and paint masks, which I suppose is the most important since that's what people will be seeing. Plugging it is was also surprisingly easy, just connect your wires and start going, although you'd probably have a professional install it for you anyway.Now for the sound. I've listened to a great deal of surround sound speakers and other speakers in general, and I won't lie and say this one ceiling speaker topped them all, but it did sound really, really good. There wasn't a lot of one pitch (some speakers tend to either be all treble or all bass) and it could also pack some thump. I played a variety of music on there including everything from bass-heavy rap to the orchestral pieces from film scores and it all sounded movie theatre quality.Overall, without sitting in a room surrounded with these guys and watching a Blu Ray of Transformers, I can't dedicate my heart and soul to how great they sound, but based on my experience with this one I'd say it's worth the price. And the price is pretty expensive, but you only have one home and you only have one home theatre to experience (usually) so why not get the best? I love that you can paint the speakers to match whatever color scheme you might have and I love the size of the speaker and everything about it. My biggest advice, though, would be not to take my word for it and find some place to listen to these yourself - but DO put SpeakerCraft at the top of your list of sound systems to listen to for your home, because they are probably even better than Bose and JBL and all the other big dogs.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. » More Information about SpeakerCraft AIM8 One 8" AIMABLE INCEILING SPEAKER (EACH).
