car speakers as ceiling speakers?

2mm according to the specs I've seen but that's plenty if you're going 8 Ohm and not running huge distances.

Send me a trust message if you want to discuss the speaker package in more detail. This is getting a bit OT from Gex's original topic :)

Given the choice I'd always go for 4x 65's over 2x 80's

The extra 5Hz bass extension of the 80 isn't going to make much difference to the sound. We do most of our listening at low volumes, so the sound spread from 4 speakers works better for that.

When you want to crank up the volume, the surface area of 4x 6.5" drivers gives you 33% more driver area than 2x 8", and since bass and volume often come down to how much air you can move, then more driver area means more air moved.

Do you know if these are suitable for putting in a bathroom, can't see an IP rating listed :/

but it does say "Our most popular single-stereo speaker. Suitable for smaller rooms of the house, such as small studies. The Kevlar cones and titanium tweeters mean they are also ideal for moist rooms such as bathrooms"

What's your view on the BCK vs BCP range. Price wise it's £50 per speaker (which is significant), the frequency responses look the same but the BCK have kevlar woofers with titanium tweeters vs the polyprop woofer and silk dome tweeters on the BCPs
