Ceiling speakers - KEF or Monitor Audio?

[teoman73]

Hi there,

I'm thinking of fitting pair of ceiling speakers:

Monitor Audio C-165 T2

With a SONOS solution. But having seen this deal:

Home AV Direct: LCD TVs | Plasma TVs | Blue Ray & DVD Players | DAB radios and more

What are your thoughts?

Cheers

I have the older version of the MA speakers you are looking at and they sound very good to me. I have no doubt the Kef will sound good too so unless you can demo each which will be difficult then I would go for the one you like the look of. I do not think you will go too far wrong with either option to be honest.

Query, those MA speakers, are they single stereo speakers?

Teroman73, can you give us any update, please? Am interested in the same setup you purchased.

Hi all,

Speakers have been mounted. One word:

FANTASTIC!

It's obviously no match to my VA Hi-Fi speakers, but just to play shuffle digital music does the job.

Will post some images soon...

Excellent looking forward to the pics.

Just curious as to where you found the ceiling speakers for that price, just about to get some for my extension but haven't been able to find them at that price.

Thanks
