You'll need an amplifier
These are passive speakers, so they need an amplifier to power them (8Ω, 25–130W recommended). Either of these will drive a pair and stream music from your phone.
Need a fire hood?
If the ceiling has a bedroom or other living space above it, or is part of an escape route, building regulations require each speaker to have a fire hood. Hoods also cut sound leaking into the room above.
Need speaker cable?
Allow about 10m per speaker for a typical run back to the amplifier (this listing is a pair). Webro 16/2 LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen) is the right cable for runs in ceilings and walls.
The Bowers & Wilkins CCM665 is a premium two-way in-ceiling speaker built for anyone who wants outstanding sound without a visible speaker in the room. Drawing on the engineering heritage of B&W's renowned studio monitors, it's ideally suited to kitchens, living rooms, home offices and open-plan spaces where discretion matters as much as performance.
Why we like it
- 150mm woven glass fibre bass/midrange driver for tight, controlled bass
- 25mm soft dome tweeter delivers smooth, detailed treble
- Wide 45Hz-35kHz frequency range for genuinely full-range sound
- QuickDogs tool-free mounting system speeds up installation
- Slim, paintable magnetic grille blends into any ceiling finish
Installation notes
The CCM665 requires a 202mm cut-out and sits within a 240mm frame diameter, with 133mm depth behind the surface. For projects needing fire or acoustic isolation, the optional BB6C back box or PMKC6 pre-mount kit can be fitted before plastering. With an 8 ohm nominal impedance and 25-130W handling per channel, these speakers pair well with multi-room amplifiers such as the Sonos Amp or a WiiM Amp for whole-home audio control.

Questions we get asked
Does it come with a grille?
Yes. Every ceiling and in-wall speaker we sell comes with its grille in the box. Manufacturer photos often show the speaker with the grille removed so you can see the drivers, but the grille is always included.
Will it fit my ceiling?
You'll need a 202mm cut-out and at least 133mm of depth behind the ceiling surface. The visible trim is 240mm across. Standard plasterboard ceilings with joists are usually fine; check for pipes, cables and insulation before cutting. Not sure? Send us a photo or plan and we'll check it for you.
Do I need an amplifier?
Yes. These are passive speakers, so they need an amplifier or AV receiver to drive them. They're rated at 8Ω with 25–130W recommended amplifier power. For most rooms a Sonos Amp or WiiM Amp is ideal: each drives a pair and streams from your phone. You can also buy a package with the amp included and save 5%.
Do I need a fire hood?
If there's a habitable room above (for example a bedroom), or the ceiling forms part of a fire escape route, Building Regulations require each speaker to be fire-rated, usually with a fire hood fitted over the back. The hood that fits this speaker is shown above, next to Add to cart. Hoods also cut sound travelling to the room above. See all fire hoods.
How many speakers do I need?
As a rule of thumb: a pair for most bedrooms, kitchens and living rooms up to about 20m², two pairs for large open-plan spaces, and a single stereo speaker (T2 / stereo models) for small rooms like en-suites. For home cinema, use 5 or 7 speakers plus a subwoofer. Our free design service will plan positions and sizes from your floorplan.
Is it sold singly or as a pair?
This listing is for a pair of speakers.
When will it arrive?
