Now, the audio ingredients: "Ceiling speakers are ideal for this job as you don't pay any extra for a speaker case you don't need, and they're designed to fit into a recessed space with screws that pull down cleats on the rim of the ceiling opening. You're going to have to put something in for the cleats to grab hold onto but the speakers I found were a close fit right out of the box, and a little jig sawing and sanding was all that was required. The speakers themselves are screwed into the plastic surround, which means you can always update them down the track."
