Question 1

Do in-wall speakers sound as good as traditional speakers?

Accepted Answer

Yes, when properly selected and installed. Modern architectural speakers use advanced materials and driver technology to rival traditional box speakers. The key is choosing speakers designed for in-wall installation (not just mounting regular speakers in a wall), proper placement, and professional calibration.

Question 2

Can you install in-wall speakers in an existing home?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We cut precise openings, run speaker wire through wall cavities, and patch/paint around the speaker frames for a clean finish. For homes with finished ceilings, we use fiberglass rods to fish wires through insulation. The process is minimally invasive and typically completed in one day per room.

Question 3

What is the difference between in-wall and in-ceiling speakers?

Accepted Answer

In-wall speakers fire horizontally at ear level and are best for stereo music listening and front/surround channels in home theaters. In-ceiling speakers fire downward and work well for ambient audio in whole-home systems and for Dolby Atmos height channels. We often use both in the same installation.

Question 4

Do I need a special screen for in-wall speakers behind it?

Accepted Answer

For home theaters, yes. An acoustically transparent screen allows sound to pass through from speakers mounted behind it. This creates the ideal setup where dialogue appears to come directly from actors on screen. We install AT screens with hidden in-wall LCR (left, center, right) speakers for a true cinema experience.

Question 5

Can in-wall speakers be used for Dolby Atmos?

Accepted Answer

Yes. In-ceiling speakers are perfect for Atmos height channels. We install them at precise angles (typically 4 speakers in a 7.2.4 configuration) to create overhead sound effects. Properly placed in-ceiling Atmos speakers deliver the immersive audio Dolby Atmos is known for.
