The Niles Audio AC-8CX is a premium in-ceiling speaker that combines advanced technology with exceptional sound quality, making it an appealing choice for home audio enthusiasts. Designed for versatile applications, this 8-inch speaker is perfect for producing high-fidelity sound in both residential and commercial settings.

One of the standout features of the AC-8CX is its 8-inch polypropylene woofer, which is designed to deliver deep, rich bass response. This is complemented by a 1-inch soft dome tweeter that ensures clear, detailed high frequencies. Together, these components create a well-balanced audio profile that reproduces music, movies, and dialogue with remarkable clarity and accuracy.

Niles Audio has incorporated its innovative Controlled Coverage Technology into the AC-8CX.

The speaker includes adjustable dog-ear brackets, ensuring a secure fit in a variety of ceiling types. Additionally, the magnetic grille is paintable, allowing homeowners to customize the look to match their decor while making the speaker virtually invisible.

Durability is also a noteworthy characteristic of the AC-8CX. The speaker features moisture-resistant materials, making it suitable for use in humid environments such as bathrooms or kitchens. This durability ensures that the speakers maintain their performance and aesthetic appeal over time, even in challenging conditions.
