Revel's entry-level in-ceiling speaker is value-packed

Revel offers a wide range of high-performance in-ceiling speakers for stereo and home theater systems. The C263 is their least expensive model, but it shares some of the same technologies as Revel's higher-end speakers, including an integrated tweeter waveguide that provides great sound for listeners directly under the speaker as well as those positioned off to the side. And its high-order crossover network allows the woofer and tweeter to blend together seamlessly.

The Revel C263 in-ceiling speaker features an integrated tweeter waveguide, which provides excellent on- and off-axis listening performance.

Space-saving long-term performance

Looking for clear, natural sound without the bulk of a traditional box speaker? The C263 is a great choice for a stealthy stereo system, or as an overhead effects channel of a surround sound system. A lifetime warranty ensures excellent long-term performance.
