Monoprice Alpha Series 2-Way Carbon Fiber In-Ceiling Speakers – 8-Inch, 15-Degree Angled Drivers, Pair

Overview

Meet the Monoprice Alpha Series 2-Way Carbon Fiber In-Ceiling Speakers. Designed to blend with your space while delivering compelling sound, these 8-inch drivers pair a carbon fiber woofer with a silky smooth tweeter for a balanced, immersive listening experience. The angled 15-degree drivers help steer sound toward seating areas, creating a more engaging atmosphere for music and movies without adding bulky components.

The carbon fiber woofer is lighter and stiffer than traditional materials, which translates to more responsive bass with less distortion as you turn up the volume. The silk dome tweeter delivers clean highs and clear mids, letting details in your favorite tracks and dialogue stay crisp. A built-in high-frequency attenuator gives you practical control to tailor brightness to your room’s acoustics and your personal preferences.

What makes these speakers stand out

• Carbon fiber woofer for stronger bass response and improved power handling with reduced distortion.
• 1-inch silk dome tweeter for smooth, articulate highs and balanced mids.
• 15-degree angled drivers to direct sound toward listening positions for a more immersive effect.
• Built-in high-frequency attenuator to fine-tune brightness without extra gear.

Installability and aesthetics

The magnetic grille is paintable to match your ceiling, helping the speakers blend into your space rather than stand out. The installation is straightforward: use the included cutout template, make the cut, and secure with simple mounting tabs using only a screwdriver. This keeps your room looking clean while still delivering high-quality sound.
