SpeakerCraft NICE SC1-IC6-Tilt 6" Angled In-Ceiling Speaker
These are passive speakers, so they need an amplifier to power them (8Ω, 30–130W recommended). Either of these will drive a pair and stream music from your phone.
Allow about 10m per speaker for a typical run back to the amplifier. Webro 16/2 LSZH (low smoke, zero halogen) is the right cable for runs in ceilings and walls.
The SpeakerCraft Nice SC1-IC6-TILT is a premium toolless in-ceiling speaker featuring a tilted woofer and pivoting tweeter, designed for flexible on- or off-axis listening. It suits whole-home music systems and media rooms where a single ceiling speaker needs to project sound towards a specific listening area.
Why we like it
- 6.5" injected polypropylene woofer with a 15° tilt for directional sound without angled brackets
- 1" silk dome AccuAim pivoting tweeter with click-lock positioning for precise phase accuracy
- ViseLock toolless installation with spring-loaded doglegs for faster, tool-free fitting
- XmaG extended pole piece keeps the voice coil within a consistent magnetic field for lower distortion
- Stiff custom metal frame with a rust-resistant, paintable, bezelless stainless-steel grille included
Installation notes
Cut-out is 201 x 210mm per the price list; confirm against the supplied template before cutting, as the manufacturer page does not list a cut-out figure separately. The ViseLock mechanism allows toolless fitting once the aperture is cut. The speaker carries an 8 ohm nominal impedance, so pair it with an amplifier channel rated for 8 ohm loads and check total impedance if used in multiples on one channel. A bezelless square grille is available separately if preferred over the supplied stainless-steel grille.
