Ok Audiophiles I need your help.
Im going to be doing some in ceiling installs in my new home with a 18x16 living room & 9 foot ceilings.
After everyones advice, Im focussing on Speakercraft Aim8's so I can properly pivot them (and have proper woofer & tweeters).
Today I have Boston HSi's in ceiling to let you know the level of audio Im used to.
And before you start: No, I HAVE to do in ceiling, and YES it kills me a little inside, but Im over it.
Where I need help:
1. Speakercraft: Can anyone confirm if there is a noticeable difference in sound from the different tiers of Aim8's? ie: the Ones, Threes & Fives. I am targeting Threes, but are the Fives noticeably better?
2. Wides: Anyone have experience with SpeakerCraft wides? The concept is intriguing, ie: dispersing sound better from on high. Please comment.
3. Boston: Ive been an HSi guy as stated. Is there an appreciable difference going to the VSi level of product for in ceiling?
4. Cheapos: OR, am I overthinking this whole thing & I should just to with Monoprice or HTD. Would I be able to tell the difference in audio from the others? (Im thinking yes, but want opinions).
All help is appreciated, Thank you!
