Looking to buy some In-ceiling speakers for my home theatre. Any suggestions on brand or size? Also looking to add two speakers on the outdoor patio that will not be in-ceiling. Looking to only spend $300-$500. Both sets will be hooked up to the same receiver (not sure on my receiver specs, but I know it is a pretty decent Yamaha).

$500 total or per set? Look into KEF if per set. Polks will do fine if that's your total budget.

Check monoprice or crutchfield.

Any suggestions...?
one suggestion. don't use ceiling speakers for your home theater. it's all about proper imaging and it's not going to sound quite right with ceiling mounted speakers. they'd be great for your patio, or kitchen, or bathroom, etc...

I have the Speakercraft AIM series. They sound great, plus you can "aim" the tweeters toward your primary seating/listening area.

Proficient speakers are good budget speakers. Shop the internet for the best prices.

I own a set of Paradigm speakers. In-Ceiling and 12" subwoofer. Sound great paired to my Denon AV Receiver.

People who spend a lot of money on things tend to think that what they own is the best.
Similar but related to the syndrome where somehow almost everyone lives in the best school district.

We are an Eaton / Cutler Hammer distributor and they have a line of speakers. I got a pair of 8 inch in ceiling speakers for 50.00 (our cost) for my kitchen and they sound great. Already had some in the den when we bought the house but I don't know what brand they are. They all sound great and haven't had a problem out of them yet.

Mirage Omnicans is the only answer.
They fire down at an adjustable angle and are omnipolar. The imaging is astonishing.
My system shocks everyone that hears it with the power, soundstage, and realism for movies, and the subtlety and immersion for music.
I would not trade them for any in-ceiling speakers in the world. Ive had them for seven years and they still blow my mind daily.
also I rec SVS subs, size depends on your room.

Check out audioadvisor.com as they have in ceilings for dirt cheap...decent stuff that did not sell as expected...they blow it out for 75% off.
Can't hurt looking.
