The Klipsch CDT-5800-C II in-ceiling speaker delivers their trademark sound while hidden away in your ceiling. They're especially great as surrounds or height speakers in a Dolby Atmos or DTS:X surround sound setup, but can give you satisfactory stereo sound for music, too.

The 5800-C II are designed for wide dispersion, and you can rotate and tilt the 8-inch woofer so the speakers are aimed toward your seating position for a more pinpoint presentation. There are tweeter and mid-bass attenuator switches on the speaker, so you can tame a bright room easily.
Klipsch loads the tweeter into a Tractrix horn, just like their traditional speakers, so the sound you get is unmistakably Klipsch. The CDT-5800-C-II comes with a slim grille which mounts nearly flush in your ceiling. You can paint the grille to match your ceiling if its white color doesn't quite blend in.
You want Klipsch everywhere, you got it. It's just too bad you have to hide those pretty copper woofers away!
