Will these surrounds be ok to mount in the corners of my room by the ceiling for to replace my def tech 600's? I need more sound from the rears

These are very crisp, just make sure your wall mounts can handle the weight of this bookshelf speaker. Its a little bit heavy.

These are excellent and very directional surround speakers that should work well with your current high-end stuff. I've been very happy with mine. Most sources - satellite TV, Amazon Fire TV, Apple TV - anything except for BluRay - depend a lot more on the front speakers.

If you mean Definitive Technology ProCinema 600 in your initial question, and you are using those little things as front speakers, you may want to use these for the front, and put the front 600's in the rear. You said "to replace" - do you mean the little 600 speakers died?

You could purchase a matching tower to your left and right front channel speakersI have not noticed a tinny sound. But my room is smaller and I do not crank the volumeYou could also try a Polk or Klipsh(disclosure theypurchased Jamo and now mfg. that brand and line)Those would be at the lower range of cost between 2 and 3 hundredI still think matching is you best option

I am buying these for my tv because the sound is not loud enough, will these increase the sound enough for a small bedroom

No. The tweeters and drivers are specifically designed to disperse from the ceiling. Also, I would reccomend a rectangular in wall speaker from a different manufacturer such as speakercraft or b&w they have been making these types of speakers way longer than Bose.

They're overkill for sides. That being said, I have 4 of them, fronts and sides. Work great. Very very clear, great sound. Slick wall mount as well. If you're setting them on a shelf be aware that they could, in theory, get knocked over as they're only 5" deep.

I have a Pioneer Elite receiver and used these for rear surround sound and they work great. Thinking about buying a full 5 speaker set for my home theater room.

My room is 15 X 30 Feet, will these work well for home theatre use? I don't listen to music much

They would work for rear surround speakers, but there are constraints. The speaker is deeper than it is wide and there is a port on the back of the unit so you can't flush mount it to the wall. They would have to be on a stand or shelf. They make a L820 model if you need to mount them on the wall. These speakers sound great.

I have them in a 12'x12'x9' room and they more than fill that from with sound. Hope that helps!

Yeah, you have to install in the ceiling. I guess you could build a box to house them but at that point you should just get regular mounting speakers.

No, you want your front speakers to be your ear level, same with center. I just installed these as a 7.1 set up. 4 in ceiling and the rest are up front on entertainment center. Think about your voice sounds coming from the top up in the ceiling, not nice.

there isn't any place to mount them unless you put a bracket on the back but if they are against the wall the port will be blocked best suggestion would be to make a shelf for them with an inch or two open behind them. these are awesome sounding speakers by the way.

They aren't long enough for you to put them at the edges of your room, but you will be able to get them far enough apart to give a good atmospheric sound. These are pretty darned good for the price, but if you are looking to have a home theater sound quality, you'll probably want to go with a more expensive set up.

It really depends upon the position of the speaker meaning, as fronts =no. If you were to use as rears or sides and they were placed above main listening area=OK.In the end if you can put these in ceiling, you should be able to put the cdt-5800-c in ceiling=better choice.

No provision. Space them as you would normal speakers. I had mine installed where I wanted them and the installer said the same thing. The audio just carries into more dead areas.Dennis

Yes, I have drop ceiling, mount it with no problem. The speakers are not heavey wt.Just, make small hole to just fit the back part of the speakers.
