About this item
Written by Crutchfield's Dave Bar
Enjoy better sound from your Klipsch 8" Reference Series in-ceiling speakers while protecting them at the same time with Klipsch's ME-800-C speaker enclosure. This sturdy pre-construction enclosure is designed to be mounted before drywall is hung. It's constructed from high-grade cold-rolled steel and filled with a layer of insulation, and it installs behind each speaker location to prevent sound from bleeding through. Plus, its optimized enclosure volume provides consistent acoustic performance for clear, crisp sound regardless of construction variations.
