Besides getting power to them, you're also likely to have a pretty long run of unbalanced line level cable from the SB to the active ceiling speakers, which is likely to pick up a hum. You could avoid this with baluns at each end.
We recently re-did our kitchen and put Polk RC60i speakers in the ceiling. They are inexpensive and sound fine for background music, although they are weak on the bass end of things. At some point I will probably look into either (a) replacing them with 8" speakers or (b) adding a subwoofer. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=40455 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
