8-inch 2-way ceiling speaker pair

The Monoprice 118588 is a pair of new 2-way in-ceiling speakers built for whole-home audio or home-theatre surround duties. Each unit uses a long-throw 8in Poly+Mica woofer and a .5in PEI tweeter to deliver full, articulate sound. They suit owners who want discreet, paintable grilles that blend into the ceiling.

Passive design requires external amplification

These speakers have no built-in power supply and must be driven by a separate amplifier or AV receiver. The 100W rating indicates maximum input power, not an internal amplifier. Buyers who want a self-powered solution or wireless streaming without extra hardware cannot use this pair as-is.

Flip-out mounting ears simplify ceiling installation

Precision cut-out templates and flip-out dog ears let you secure each speaker through a hole in drywall without specialised tools. The paintable grille and baffle can be coloured to match the ceiling. Installers without attic access or those mounting into concrete ceilings will find the standard cut-and-clamp method impractical.

Questions about this item

Which version of the Monoprice 118588 should I pick if I need a pair of 8-inch ceiling speakers?

The 118588 is sold as a matched pair of 8-inch two-way ceiling speakers, so a single order provides both units required for stereo or surround use.

What does the 100 W power rating mean when the speakers are driven by a typical AV receiver?

The 100 W figure is the maximum power handling; in practice the long-throw 8 in Poly+Mica woofer and 0.5 in PEI tweeter will play loudly and cleanly with any modern receiver delivering up to that level per channel.

What connection interface do these speakers use and what does it limit in a real installation?

They use bare-wire spring terminals that accept standard speaker cable, so the practical limit is the gauge and length of wire you run from your amplifier to the ceiling cut-out.
