Crestron® Aspire® 8” White In-Ceiling Speakers

Audiophile performance 2-way in-ceiling speakers — designed by Crestron® to please the most ardent listener and the most demanding interior designer — with thoughtful features that simplify installation.

The product of expert Crestron® audio engineering, Aspire® speakers deliver high-end performance for demanding residential installations. Select materials and a refined appearance underscore the meticulous design behind each model. The result is a complete line of in-wall and in-ceiling speakers worthy of a place in every room of the finest custom home.

The Aspire line strikes a perfect balance between performance and price, delivering pristine, impactful sound quality, with minimal impact on your décor thanks to paintable zero-bezel grilles. Streamlined installation of each speaker is facilitated through a three-point, spring-loaded swiveling dog mounting system optimized to minimize interference with obstructions within the ceiling space.

The Aspire IC8-W-T model provides a pair of 2-way in-ceiling speakers featuring 8 inch (203 mm) woven poly-glass composite woofers for rich, impactful low end, and 1 inch (25 mm) advanced synthetic polymer dome tweeters for crisp, soaring highs. Offset post-mounting of the tweeters reduces midrange frequency response anomalies normally caused by interference between the woofer and the back of the tweeter. Precisely tuned 4th order crossovers ensure a full, warm and detailed response across the spectrum. Power handling is an impressive 150 Watts (program), with a wide frequency response from 48 Hz to 20 kHz (±3 dB).
