Q: QuestionI understand these are indoor speakers but could they work in a covered deck/porch?(3 answers)
A: AnswerDepends on where you are. In Florida for example, it gets very hot and humid even in a covered porch and these speakers are not rated for outdoor use. I have Mag8R's inside and polk RC80i's in my Florida Sunroom. RC80i's are great if you are going for a second zone speakers for music in the patio area.Answered by AudioEnthusiast
Q: QuestionHow do these compare to b&w ccm683?(1 answer)
A: AnswerMag8R both tweeter and woofer can be pivoted independently towards listening area. The Mag8R’s sounds very natural and I have them as a 5.1 ceiling setup and they are an incredible value if you get them on sale. Can’t go wrong with BW683 either and the tweeter pivots 30 degrees compared to 15 on Mag8Rs. Both sound excellent and I could not make out the differences and it kind of comes to room setup and crossover adjustment.Answered by AudioEnthusiast
- A: AnswerHI, The MAG8R speakers are not the same model as the Sonos Architectural Speakers by Sonance. We manufacture that model of speaker exclusively for Sonos. However, the MAG8R speakers you are referring to will work great with the Sonos Amp. I hope you found this information helpful. If you have additional questions, please give us a call at 949-492-7777 and ask for Tech support. We will be happy to help you out. - Sonance Customer Support Team

A: AnswerHi, 13.2 lbs. is the weight of both speakers. I hope you found this information helpful. If you have additional questions, please give us a call at 949-492-7777 and ask for Tech support. We will be happy to help you out. - Sonance Customer Support TeamAnswered by Sonance Team
Q: QuestionDo I need a seperate install kit?(1 answer)
A: AnswerNo you don’t. They come designed with flanges that clip out on the sheet rock when you begin to tighten the screws. It’s a great design.Answered by DMac
Q: QuestionHow many watts are these speakers?(5 answers)
A: AnswerHi Don! These speakers are 150 watts, per channel. Ideally, you want a receiver that can output, at the very least, 100 watts (or more) per channel to get the full-range of these.Answered by Veganrichy

Great speakers, cheap price
I did an extensive research for surround audio solution for my home but halted as soon as I came across these bad boys. I was lucky to get them on a great Sales deal in Best Buy. They are magnificent, covering my entire home with 2 pairs in large rooms and 1 pair in small rooms and bedrooms and they spit crisp and fire. Now I have a perfect surround audio solution that didn't hurt my bank account.
