Description of OSD Audio ACE870 Trimless Composite

TRIMLESS GRILLE: The OSD Trimless In-Ceiling Angled Audio Speaker is flush mounted and is hardly visible for a hidden impact once installed. Powerful magnets keep the micro flange grilles attached for easy installation. ANGLE: This in-ceiling speaker features a 15 degree angled woofer for the bass driver and a pivoting tweeter for placement flexibility in the ceiling, ready for Dolby Atmos Sound. DESIGN: For OSD’s Trimless In-Ceiling LCR Speaker, it is flush mounted, making it easy to blend into the ceiling. Contour switches also allow you to tailor the bass and treble to your preference. WOOFER & TWEETER: The features in this speaker include a carbon fiber composite cone woofer and a pivoting 1 inch aluminum dome tweeter with high power handling of 175 watts. SOUND QUALITY: When mounted to a wall or ceiling, the angled speaker solves your audio placement problems and creates a more realistic sound image when compared to normal in-ceiling speakers.

Great for Atmos setup

Bought these for 5.1.2 Dolby Atmos setup and couldn't be happier. I almost went for the more expensive speakers but they match tall speakers at a great price.

Pros
  • Best
Cons
  • No form required

WOW! Great speakers!

This is a replacement for the poor POLK RCi80 series in ceiling speaker. There is no comparison to the quality of the OSD verse POLK. The OSD wins in build quality, sound, installation and aesthetics. You will NOT be disappointed with this product.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Not reliable

These speakers are thick, they take up space.

Easy installation. They were easy to install and the lids are magnetic. I chose not to paint my lids but the instructions say they can be painted. They sound great for ATMOS speakers, I had no problems with sound distortion at all.

Pros
  • GOLS Certificate
Cons
  • Tape

May be too heavy for some installations

Excellent performance and sound. tops and construction. A bit heavy for a false ceiling installation, so I had to attach them to the rafters with long cable ties, EZ PZ. I like the fact that the woofer is angled towards the listener, as well as the adjustable tweeter.

Pros
  • Acceptable
Cons
  • Some cons

Budget speakers

I ordered 4 of these speakers to complete my 7.2.4 system. The look of these speakers is perfect, I like their color, the size is big but perfect. a bit heavy so make sure your ceiling can take the weight, I'm still in the process of installing it. I've done some tests on the speakers, everything looks fine, I hope these speakers will do what they're supposed to do, like Atoms. I will add another review after my isolation is complete.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Expensive

Camping Van Home Audio Installation

Not sure how they would work or sound but I took a chance and ordered them. I was looking for something to attach to the ceiling of my own Ford Transit high roof camper van. I just installed them and am blown away by the improved sound. I connected them directly to the main unit's rear speaker outputs and they work like clockwork. The angled insert allowed me to steer them into the cab area as my headliner rises towards the rear. Fills the entire booth with hard mids and angelic highs.

Pros
  • Looks Great
Cons
  • It Makes Me Mad

Great sound, great looks, a bit tricky to install

Now that the speakers are installed and working, I really like them. Great sound (I use them as a surround back) and I like the look of the very thin caps held in place by magnets. The only thing that brought my rating down a bit (I would have given 4 1/2 stars if Revain had the option) was a small issue during installation. The cams holding the speaker to the wall plate will not come out when the screw is turned. So I had to loosen the screw about halfway down its length and then wiggle it up…

Pros
  • Dope 🔥
Cons
  • Speed
