Hanging In-Ceiling?

[hchytd]

Hello all,

I need to find a decent "white-colored" speaker (exclusively for music) that hangs from ceiling and points toward listening area (6 feet away). Specifically, the wiring for it is in the ceiling already, but speaker cannot simply point downward (due to listening area). I also have a budget (under $200 per speaker) and found this. Any thoughts?

Any other suggestions would be wonderful too!

Thank you,

Are you looking for an in-ceiling or something that will just hang on the outside like that Orb?

Many, many companies have in-ceilings with woofer/tweeter that pivot so you can point them to the listening area.

I have Sonance and SpeakerCraft and they both pivot.

Thanks PD,

Unfortunately, an in-ceiling with angled tweeter will not work for my usage.

So, I do need something (very small and white) that will hang and point.

Has anyone used or heard of/reviewed these "orbs" on this forum?

Their website has many links to solid objective reviews from audiophile sources - http://www.orbaudio.com/index.asp?PageAction=Custom&ID=22

Just wondering if it's the best answer within my needs/budget...

I will be ordering something this week.

Thanks again,
