Ceiling Speakers – Polk Audio Vs. Boston Acoustics
October 30th, 2009
Just for a little educational experiment, I want to go through an analysis and comparison of two very differently priced in ceiling speakers. The first one is the so-called budget friendly Boston Acoustics DSi255 and the second one is the Polk Audio LC80fx. The first can be had for around $100, while you’ll probably have to pay closer to $900 for the Polks.

I am not trying to pick a side, necessarily. I’m just trying to illustrate how there could be a price discrepancy of oh about 800% between the low-end and the high-end in this sub-sector of the ceiling-based audio field.
First let’s look at the Boston Acoustics offering. This one is rather cheap, I’d say. I mean who would think you could get anything from that stalwart of Boston, MA, sonic engineering for $99. Not me. I was surprised to see this deal when I first spotted it.
