Monitor Audio CSS230 Super Slim In-Ceiling Speaker

Monitor Audio CSS230 super slim in-ceiling speaker only requires 2 inches of mounting depth which makes it ideal for installations in tight spaces.  Between 2″ stud frames or where pipework or cabling reduces mounting depth, the hybrid back-box construction and proprietary full-range driver array combine to deliver consistent audio quality with exceptional installation versatility.

The hybrid back-box provides the best of all worlds for installer and customer. Combined, the three proprietary 3″ mid-bass units achieve the bass output of a 6 1/2″ driver, all from a super-stealthy flush-fitted profile.

  • Super-slim mounting depth 50 mm (2″) designed to fit within 2” stud walls or where space is restricted
