Loudspeaker for Ceiling with Bluetooth or Wifi

Post by Teddy » November 11, 2013, 1:37 pm

I would like to put some Loudspeakers in the Ceiling (similar to Loudspeakers in the car), which I can connect to my IPad or Computer via Bluetooth or Wifi.

Looking for a shop in Udon who are selling them. Any recommendation?

Advice have them in their catalogue.

So just about any of the shops with their sign outside could get them for you.
Not sure how suitable any of them are for ceiling mounting though...

I'm using a Creative Speaker bought in the Banana Store (Landmark Plaza). I use it mostly in my truck....it uses batteries or simple adapter plug. I connect them to my radio app via bluetooth.....listen to US radio stations when I'm driving. Works for me.....might work in a ceiling with a little fiddling.

Hope this thread proves positive.

I'm on the search for the same thing.

The closest I found were so called "wireless" floor (rear) speakers.

Upon further inspection, there was a rear amp that needed an elec. outlet of course, and then wires to the rear speakers.

So much for "wireless".

Well I guess that the correct term is probably 'bluetooth' but I get what you say.. :D

2 channel speaker systems are available that run just on batteries - see this Sony Model
http://www.sony.co.uk/product/mfi-wirel ... srs-btx300
But you do need access in order to change/charge the batteries & the sound is only coming from where you position a single unit.

If you want a system for a house (& as you are currently building anyway) then the best method would be to decide where you want everything positioning & then hard wiring it in with the speaker connections positioned where the speakers will be going on the walls. (or, I guess ceilings if you want to go that way). Then just a very short connection from wall to speaker, hidden by the wall mounted speaker.

I think that Sony do actually do a 6:1 speaker system where the 2 rear speakers are wi-fi while the 4 infront speakers are cable connections... It is mighty expensive though, in the 20K baht range & large speakers too.

If you just hard wire it all into the wall then you can choose any of the surround sound models that takes your eye..
