Round in-ceiling speaker with a 6.5" woofer
The Sonance VX60R is a round speaker from the Visual Experience series, built for ceiling installation and meant to bring sound to a room while staying visually discreet. Sold as a pair.
It mounts in a circular ceiling opening and ships with a white Micro Trim grille. Sonance states that this model uses advanced technology for its drivers and crossover, aiming at even coverage, limited distortion and a natural-sounding result.

Installation
The cut-out is 210 mm in diameter and the mounting depth is 106 mm. The Visual Experience series allows either the standard single-stage installation or an optional two-stage one: with the latter, cabling and space reservation are done ahead of construction, and the job ends by snapping the speaker module into place.
Finishes and grilles
The supplied grille is a Micro Trim in satin Brilliant White. Three grille styles exist for the Visual Experience series: Micro Trim, Trimless and TRUFIG-mounted Trimless, the last one intended for precise alignment and a finish level with the surrounding surface.
