Dayton Audio ME820C 8" 2-Way Micro-Edge Ceiling Speaker Pair

The Micro-Edge™ series in-wall and in-ceiling speakers from Dayton Audio combine sophisticated, minimalist styling with robust acoustical engineering and design features, for outstanding home theater and musical performance. The compact ME820C in-wall model installs virtually anywhere, and rewards with rich, detailed sound.


Quality Inside and Out

Dayton Audio’s Micro-Edge™ speakers were created to combine the high-quality sonic performance of a premium free-standing speaker with sleek, contemporary in-wall styling, for a thoroughly modern take on the in-wall speaker. The ME820C model features a compact design that’s easy to install virtually anywhere, even where space is limited, and is perfectly suited for use as left, right, or surround channels in a home theater application. The low-profile perforated grill with ultra-slim Micro-Edge™ frame almost disappears into the wall entirely, and is easily paintable to match its surroundings.

Installation Made Easy

The robust 8" woofer features a rubber surround and a woven black Kevlar cone that provides excellent transient ‘snap’ and crisp vocal clarity along with impactful bass, and the 1" silk-dome tweeter delivers rich detail that never becomes harsh, even at high volumes. The pivoting tweeter mount lets you target the best treble performance directly at the listening position, and the three-position room integration switch lets you decrease treble output if desired, for the best balance with your room's natural acoustics.



Timbre Matched

All Dayton Audio Micro-Edge™ (ME-series) speakers are timbre-matched for a seamless and consistent home theater experience when used together. For horizontal installation (e.g. center channel), model ME525MTM is recommended.
