OSD ACE800, 8" Contractor Series In-Ceiling Speaker (Pair)

8" 120W Trimless Thin Bezel 2-Way In-Ceiling Speaker Pair

Interior designers love our ACE (Architectural Ceiling Element) Series in-ceiling speakers and it's easy to see why! The ACE series combines elegant, modern style with outstanding audio performance and is stealthiest speaker you'll ever see (or not see). The ACE800 can handle up to 120 watts of high power handling which is super useful in areas you don’t want large speakers invading your space but want great sounding audio in your home. Featuring a 8” fiberglass cone woofer and a 1” titanium dome tweeter, these speakers are perfect for any home audio setup.

What Is Butyl Rubber Surround?
With almost double the shelf life of foam, butyl rubber has been the choice of speaker designers looking to optimize the sound based upon materials that go together. The Surround is just one of the integral parts of the speaker's motor structure. Butyl Rubber gives the speaker more excursion capability featuring a deeper bass with a wider frequency response, and its shelf life is closer to 25 years compared to the foam at 12 to 15 years.

Testing the Sound Quality of In-Ceiling Speakers
Many customers like to test the sound quality of their new OSD Audio in-ceiling speakers before they install them. Keep in mind, however, that these flush-mount speakers are designed to be used in the wall or ceiling. Uninstalled in-wall/in-ceiling speakers will sound weak and tinny because without the proper enclosure (in this case your house wall) the speaker can’t produce the sound pressure level it needs. If you want to try them out, we recommend mounting the in-ceiling speakers into a box of about 3 cubic ft. or larger; or simply mount them in the ceiling and then listen. This will give you an accurate measure of the sound quality.
