Bluetooth Ceiling Speakers

Bluetooth speakers are designed primarily for a local connection to a source device, be that a phone or tablet that's playing either stored music or internet streamed playlist.

Perfect for bedrooms and kitchens, these wireless ceiling speaker systems are a self contained powered speaker and Bluetooth receiver. They work as a stereo pair, with one active speaker which requires mains power, and a slave speaker which is connected with a standard speaker cable.

Bluetooth Ceiling Speakers That Work With Alexa

Working on a slightly different design, the wall plate style systems feature a single or dual gang sized control unit, which has the Bluetooth receiver, amplifier, and FM or DAB radio built-in. This allows the ceiling speakers to be standard passive types which makes installation a simple task.

Featuring the latest Bluetooth receivers, these ceiling speakers are also fully capable of connection to Amazon's Alexa and Echo speaker systems, expanding their output for a true room-filling sound, and giving you the benefits of voice control.

Bluetooth has revolutionised the way we enjoy our music. The ability to wirelessly transmit audio has seen a complete change in the design of stereo systems for the home and business. The latest Bluetooth ceiling speakers allowing room-filling sound with none of the usual boxes or clutter.

Wireless Bluetooth Ceiling Speakers

Sadly there is still no such thing as completely wireless speakers (they still need the power to operate!). However Bluetooth ceiling speakers come as close as todays technology will allow. Capable of receiving audio wirelessly from Bluetooth devices, the latest wireless ceiling speakers have built-in amplifiers and work in stereo pairs. These are designed for single-zone use only, as currently Bluetooth does not allow multiple connections or linking.

Using them is as simple as pairing to any Bluetooth device, with up to 10m range available and simple control of volume and music source, be it stored tracks or a streaming service.

Bluetooth Ceiling Speaker Kit

Available as direct mount ceiling speakers that contain amplifiers and Bluetooth receivers. We have high-performance kits that are great for kitchens, bedrooms and small offices, with easy installation and intuitive control.

For slightly larger rooms and those that prefer a physical control system, our Systemline ceiling speaker packages use a touch panel wall faceplate. The faceplate features the amplifier and Bluetooth receiver, as well as a DAB radio on the E100 unit. This allows the use of standard passive ceiling speakers, with up to 4 speakers running in stereo (2 per channel) for great sound distribution.

With a variety of options available in the Bluetooth Ceiling Speaker market, we are happy to help with any questions you may have on these exciting systems. Please get in touch to discuss your requirements with our product specialist.

Benefits Of Using Bluetooth

Installed Bluetooth speakers are a popular choice for homeowners who desire an easy and convenient way to listen to music or other audio content throughout their homes. These wireless speakers provide numerous benefits, including high-quality audio, ease of installation, and a sleek, modern design that blends seamlessly into any living space.

One of the primary advantages of these systems is their wireless functionality. They can be connected to Bluetooth-enabled devices like smartphones or tablets, allowing users to stream music and other audio content wirelessly. This eliminates the need for additional wires or cables, reducing clutter and creating a more organized and streamlined environment.

These systems are also incredibly easy to install, requiring minimal tools. This makes them an ideal choice for homeowners who prefer to handle DIY projects on their own. Additionally, these speakers offer high-quality audio that rivals traditional wired speakers. With advanced audio technologies such as digital signal processing and equalisation, they deliver clear, crisp audio with minimal distortion.

The discreet and unobtrusive design of the installed ceiling speakers complements any home decor. Unlike traditional bookshelf or floor-standing speakers, they are mounted flush with the ceiling, creating a modern and minimalist look. This makes them a perfect choice for homeowners who value both form and function.

Many benefits are provided by ceiling Bluetooth audio systems for homeowners seeking a high-quality, easy-to-install, and aesthetically pleasing audio solution. With their wireless functionality, top-notch audio quality, and sleek design, they provide an excellent entertainment experience for anyone who wants to enjoy music or other audio content throughout their homes.

Multi Room Bluetooth Systems

When a volume attenuator is used in these Bluetooth in-ceiling speaker systems, it means that one or more speakers in the setup are connected to the attenuator after being wired from the amplifier. Any speakers that are connected to the attenuator can be adjusted in volume separately to the speakers coming from just the main output on the amplifier. This gives you the ability to install one or more speakers in a separate room, such as an ensuite bathroom, and adjust the volume separately from the rest of the system.

The other way that multi-room Bluetooth audio is achieved is using speaker switches. They work in a very similar way to attenuators - connected from the main output of an amplifier as a middle-man between the speaker(s) and amp. Any speakers connected to the switch can be turned on and off as required, which is perfect for two-room setups where you may only want to stream audio in one room at a time.

Due to the nature of Bluetooth streaming, your smart device will need to be located fairly close to the amplifier with a Bluetooth receiver built-in. You will find that the audio will start to cut out if your device is too far away from the amplifier, which is why Bluetooth speaker systems are usually limited to single rooms. Two-room setups can be achieved using the switches and attenuators mentioned above, as long as your smartphone or tablet is in close proximity to the amplifier.

Installing Ceiling Speakers

The installation process of Bluetooth ceiling-mounted speaker systems is fairly straightforward, but it may not be as easy as some people expect. Despite these systems being ‘wireless’ in terms of audio streaming, they will all need to be connected either to an amplifier or directly to the mains using cables.

For systems with passive ceiling speakers and an amplifier, each speaker will need to be connected to the powered output on the amplifier using bare wire cable. The cable should be run through the void of your ceiling and wall surfaces, keeping it fully concealed for a streamlined and minimal-looking setup.

The good news is that once your cables have been run accordingly, there is little to no further setup required. The amplifiers in each system serve as the main control module that powers the system and provides additional functions such as volume control, EQ adjustment, and even more inputs like AUX or optical to connect your TV.

We always recommend that an electrician or installer does the installation of your home Bluetooth in-ceiling systems, but if you are comfortable with the process yourself, it is quite simple. Our knowledgeable team are more than happy to go through the installation process over the phone or via email, ensuring that your system is set up and working properly.

Systems with in-wall amplifiers

Many of our Bluetooth ceiling speaker systems use passive speakers that are then wired back to an in-wall amplifier. The amplifier in these systems has a built-in Bluetooth receiver, giving you the ability to pair your smartphone, tablet, or laptop and stream audio wirelessly. This is great for home use, as you can play audio from any app or website of your choice, leaving you with plenty of options to play music, podcasts, audiobooks, and radio stations, for example.

By having an in-wall amplifier instead of active Bluetooth ceiling speakers, you have an easier way to control the system and turn it on or off as required. All cables are fully concealed in wall and ceiling voids, resulting in a stylish system that doesn’t stand out too much in the room that it is installed in.

The Bluetooth in-ceiling systems with wall amplifiers will usually also provide other means of audio playback, such as USB/Micro SD MP3 players or 3.5mm AUX inputs. By having these additional input options, you can use a wide variety of devices with the systems, even if your device doesn’t feature wireless Bluetooth functionality.

Each in-wall Bluetooth amplifier has a user-friendly interface, either in the style of a touch panel or buttons. They have bright display screens that show you information about the audio you are playing, as well as the mode you have selected on the amplifier. They are not only user-friendly in design, but they are a smart and modern device that look great in any room without detracting from the aesthetics of the room.

Bluetooth or WiFi?

There are two main types of wireless ceiling speakers that you can get - Bluetooth and WiFi. Bluetooth speakers have a built-in receiver that allows you to pair a suitable smart device, such as a smartphone or tablet, and stream audio wirelessly at a close distance in a single room. They are designed to be as user-friendly as possible, with minimal set-up required.

On the other hand, WiFi ceiling speakers connect to your network, where they can then be controlled using a specialised app on a smart device that is connected to the same network. With WiFi systems, you can control the audio from anywhere in the house, without being limited by the distance between the speaker(s) and your smart device.

Another advantage of WiFi systems is that they can be easily expanded into multi-room systems. Any WiFi speakers that are connected to the same network will be recognised on the corresponding app, meaning that you can control multiple speakers from a single smart device. This is fantastic for advanced smart systems, but will not always be necessary for you, depending on your requirements.

Bluetooth ceiling speakers are a great option for single rooms, as it is easy to pair any smart device, and you are also not restricted to dedicated apps. You can use whatever app or website you want to play audio, giving you unlimited access to your favourite music, podcasts, audiobooks, and radio stations.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are ceiling speakers with Bluetooth a good idea?

Definitely! Bluetooth ceiling speakers are ideal for a single-room installation where a small quantity of speakers is needed, as it is quick and easy to pair your smart device, and you can then play any audio you like completely wirelessly, with the speakers concealed unobtrusively in the ceiling.

Do Bluetooth in-ceiling speakers need to be plugged in?

Yes, all speakers will need a connection to power, whether from the mains or from a power amplifier. The advantage of Bluetooth ceiling speakers is that you can connect your smartphone or tablet without any cables being needed. Some Bluetooth ceiling speakers also have a line input, or AUX connection, giving you the ability to use a cable to connect them to devices without wireless functionality, such as some televisions.

How do Bluetooth ceiling speakers work?

Our Bluetooth ceiling speakers come in pairs and feature an active/passive design. The active speaker has an integrated Bluetooth receiver and amplifier, while the passive speaker connects to the main unit using the supplied speaker cable. It is then possible to pair your smart device, such as a smartphone or tablet to wirelessly stream audio to the speakers.

Can you connect Bluetooth ceiling speakers to TV?

Bluetooth ceiling speakers can only be connected to a smart TV with a Bluetooth transmitter. Bluetooth speakers include a receiver to pick up signals from a transmitter, but the television needs to have this technology for it to work. Many modern smart televisions now include Bluetooth, but if this is not the case it may be possible to download an app on your TV or to add a Bluetooth transmitter.

Can you get wireless ceiling speakers?

The expression ‘wireless ceiling speakers’ refers to the ability to control speakers without wires. All ceiling speakers require a power source, and will therefore need to be connected to mains power, or to an amplifier (with wires usually concealed behind the ceiling). However it is possible to get ceiling speakers that feature a Bluetooth or WiFi receiver, enabling you to control speakers wirelessly through a suitable smart device.

Can you use Bluetooth speakers in a bathroom?

There are specific ceiling speakers designed to withstand moisture and direct contact with water, but you need to make sure that the system you are buying is capable of doing this. Look for an IP rating - the minimum IP rating of a speaker to be suitable for bathroom use is IP45, and anything higher than this will be perfectly suitable too. This rating refers to the speaker’s housing and how well it can withstand both water and dust. The higher the number, the more protected the speaker will be.

How many ceiling speakers do I need?

The number of speakers that you require will depend on the overall size of the room that you want to install the system in. We recommend that if your room is 3m x 3m or smaller, a pair of ceiling speakers would suffice. Any room larger than 5m x 5m may require a more evenly spread sound, so four speakers would be best.

Can you get rechargeable Bluetooth ceiling speakers?

No, there are no Bluetooth ceiling speakers available that have built-in rechargeable batteries. All in-ceiling Bluetooth speakers will need to be connected to a mains power supply in order to work. The reason that in-ceiling speakers do not have a rechargeable design is that it would be too inconvenient to remove them from the ceiling every time they need to be recharged.

Should I get Wi-Fi or Bluetooth ceiling speakers?

Whether you should get WiFi or Bluetooth ceiling speakers depends on your specific requirements. If you only want to play music in one room from your phone or tablet, Bluetooth ceiling speakers would be the better option. However, if you want to expand the system into multiple rooms and control the audio from anywhere in the house, a WiFi system would work better for you.

Are wired or wireless ceiling speakers better?

Firstly, any ceiling speakers will need at least one cable connection in order to receive power. In terms of sound quality, a wired connection to an amplifier or directly to an audio device, depending on the system, will always be better. This being said, Bluetooth ceiling speakers are still an extremely viable option, and most people won’t notice the difference in sound quality between a wired and wireless connection.

What is a 2 way Bluetooth ceiling speaker?

When you see ‘2-way’ or ‘coaxial’ in the specifications of Bluetooth ceiling speakers, this refers to the speaker drivers within each housing. 2-way coaxial Bluetooth ceiling speakers have a separate woofer and tweeter driver in each speaker, which results in a wide frequency response with fantastic depth and clarity.

How are Bluetooth ceiling speakers powered?

Some Bluetooth ceiling speakers include an active speaker, which means that they are powered by directly connecting the active unit to the mains. Other speakers may have a passive design, and require a separate power amplifier which features Bluetooth. In this case the speakers need to be wired to the amplifier with a standard speaker cable, and the amplifier will be connected to mains power.

How do I install Bluetooth ceiling speakers?

Installation of Bluetooth ceiling speakers is straightforward. To install in the ceiling, a circular hole is required (using the provided template), and clamps are used to secure the speakers. Bluetooth speakers usually come in an active/passive pair, so the active speaker connects to the mains, while the passive unit connects to the active with the supplied speaker cable. Smart devices can then be easily paired for wireless streaming of audio.

Can you get multi-room ceiling speaker systems with Bluetooth?

Usually, Bluetooth systems are limited to single-room streaming due to the connectivity range of a wireless Bluetooth signal. That being said, there are systems available that utilise speaker switches and/or volume attentuators, which allow you to turn specific speakers on/off as well as adjust the volume of some speakers separately to the rest of the system. This allows you to configure multi-room setups, but bear in mind that your smart device will need to be positioned fairly close to the amplifier or active ceiling speaker in order to avoid audio cutting out.

Which Bluetooth ceiling speaker system should I buy?

The ceiling speaker system that you buy will depend on your requirements as well as the room that you intend to install the system in. For small rooms with no moisture, such as a bedroom or study, you will only need a stereo system with two speakers. If you require high volume levels, it is best to go with a system that includes larger speakers, such as 6.5-inch or 8-inch models. They will be able to reproduce a wider range of frequencies while being suitable for high volume levels without distorting.

How do I play music through my ceiling speakers?

To play music using Bluetooth with your ceiling speaker system, you will first need to make sure that the amplifier or active speaker (depending on the system) is in pairing mode. Once ready to pair, you will see the amplifier or speaker in the Bluetooth settings of your smartphone or tablet. Pair your smart device, and once paired, you are able to use any app or website of your choice to play music, podcasts, radio stations, talk shows, and ambient noise through your system.

What are the benefits of using Bluetooth for ceiling speakers?

Bluetooth ceiling speakers provide many benefits over traditional wired speakers. One of these is their convenience - you can quickly pair and unpair your smart devices to play music in the room without any complicated set-up process. Another benefit is that you can avoid cluttered space and trip hazards that are present with wired connections, making Bluetooth ceiling speakers a safer and more stylish alternative.

Can I use Bluetooth ceiling speakers for parties?

Although Bluetooth ceiling speakers are capable of producing high volume levels, they should not be used for house parties. In-ceiling speakers are designed more for casual listening while you have a couple of guests over or are doing housework, for example. If you want to host a larger party at home, it would be better to get a dedicated PA system.
