The other night was one of those great moments…
After weeks of no amenities – I got 2 at once: TV and stereo. As my key went in the door I heard music, which I thought was coming from a neighbor’s apartment, but as soon as the door opened I felt happy. It was mine.

I hate a quiet apartment and love music, so I’ve missed having it a lot....
This is nothing new. I’ve always had speakers in the ceiling, and functionally they are great, but I hate the way they look, especially on a pretty ceiling - they ruin it. This time around I decided to try something different – invisible speakers. I saw the concept on HGTV on I Want That, and had my AV guy track them down.
Invisible, really? Yes!
Honestly I’m not sure how they work, but you can’t see them in the ceiling AT ALL. One of my friends was over the other day, and was fascinated about not being able to see where the music was coming from. Me too. I actually climbed the ladder to look in my partially open ceiling to see them just once – they’re there and surprisingly very tiny.
Believe it or not I bought them sight unseen, so I had no idea how they would sound. Who does that? Me - a risk yes, but why not? I’m not sorry…
Let me tell you these are amazing - great looking (hahaha), great sounding, and worth every penny. Music is invisible so why not keep it that way – completely unseen.
Having music in my place again is a luxury that brings in a sense of happiness and life. And since I have been living under some pretty rough conditions lately, one that is absolutely priceless...

So glad you're one step closer to enjoying all elements of your design..! It's funny how over time, sound systems that were once state-of-the-art end up looking conspicuously outdated. The invisible approach is brillient.
I know! You are so right. I bought a BOSE 3-2-1 for my my studio and it is now HUGE. This time my AV guy consolidated my cable box, DVD and stereo components into one location, connecting them to all rooms. This is better but the components are still a little big. Someday they will all be a chip or something that I will need a pair of bifocals to see. hahaha
