Linus just a word of caution as an Engineer, if your house was built before 1996 that ceiling/or ceiling paint (bumpy/looks like drips) most likely contains asbestos and i would highly recommend ventilating that room heavily for a couple days as asbestos dust will literally just float in the air for years.
You just cut giant holes in your vapor barrier. In winter it will create mold on the sealing and condensation in the insulation.
Linus, please make a video on game servers and how ping works. When we trace the ping it shows hops through which it passes to reach destination servers. But sometimes some of the hosts has packet loss and thus ping is too high. Is it possible to reroute the path to use better hosts to reach servers. Gamer community will love this know this knowledge. Please.
Unsubbed, I don't know what happened to this channel but it's neither entertaining nor informative anymore.
You guys should really look into a Dante system for this, I really feel like it'd be up your alley.
"Should have hired a professional..." Everything goes fine.
Pretty standard LTT click bait. Mind you they are the ones laughing to the bank, since we watched it anyway....
Hey, we all clicked xD
In comparison I took my car to a professional after spending some time outside in the cold attempting to remove a stuck on molding cleanly only to have him tear it off... Like bro, I could have done that.
@@IGM0937 Well now they sound like an evil Corporation or Big Pharma if you phrase it that way.
Yea such click bait
Just a couple tips for would be in-ceiling speaker installers from someone who does it professionally.
1. run your wires high so they dont get stepped on.
2. leave yourself a service loop and some slack so you can pull out the speaker if necessary.
3. adjust your drill down to the lowest power settings/clutch? setting so you dont over tighten
4. always check above where you are about to cut. dont nick electral wires or accidently hit studs/joists
5. stud finder will save you some wasted attic trips.
6. Attics get really hot, don't put your equipment up there.
7. 1 speaker is usually good enough for a single room.
8. speakers in wall will sound better than speakers in ceiling when doing surround sound for living rooms.
finally not a tip but opinion. Klipsch has been the best bang for the buck speaker i've come across, but there are many good brands.
1 speaker is good enough? shouldn't there be at least 2 for stereo audio? 1 is just mono and you lose a lot of the experience that way.
@@Tibbs142 Distributed audio is usually mono 100/70v
You forgot 9. Pay someone that knows how to do it.
I whould use lower gauge Wire for longer runs more power
There is those really cool frame speakers. As an alternative
@@dangerfox1776 PA/Restaurant/elevator music absolutely is, but Sonos is more a distributed home theatre product than that.
Linus could’ve called his wife “honey” and then Segue it to the sponsor... missed opportunity there bud
Dang those writer, totally missed that. Should be the top comment.
I am pretty sure he did that once
n3LLy if you find the video please link me to it
Is it just me? Or does anyone else read "bud" In a really condescending tone?
ZAINILEX I just take it as a “bro” alternative but for older people, since I cannot call this boomer linus bro 😂
Here we see a wild Linus preparing to wake his kids up every morning with a sponsor spot and the LTT intro song
LMAO

I love watching these videos of Linus upgrading his house. I always think: Wow that's really cool, I'd love to do that!
And then I remember I live in Germany and my house isn't built out of cardboard and plywood and getting a hole inside a wall requires a massive amount of tools and work.
Same.... Also cable management for any integrated system is a real pain in the ass in a normal german house. Even distributing LAN trough your flat is a difficult task...
Markarth Guard Living in a house from the 70s, I totally agree. Had to drill holes and route the cable outside of the house to get it upstairs.
Hahaha mee too bud
First thing I did when I bought my house 5 years ago was slitting my walls an get 450 m cat7 and 100 m coax in them 😜 definitely worth it
@@_____random_____ yeah, thats kinda smart
I love that Yvonne instantly called Linus out when he said he doesn't know if he'd spend 6 times as much for better audio
yeah but in reality you WOULD need that in a studio setting, as an audio engineer i could argue this all day, i do need $700 speakers, two of them? thats a luxury, but one is the minimum, if you dont have a correct monitor when you export your audio it will just be all over the place
@@djexitvideos Yeah, that's why I like that she called him out... but also, you should never let your equipment dictate how good you are or aren't allowed to be at something. Most mixing engineers will listen to their mixes in their cars to double check things. Not because their cars have good speakers, but because they know what those speakers sound like. In a professional setting, while good speakers make life easier, its more important to know your speakers than how good they are. That said a set of $700 studio monitors is a pretty massive upgrade to quality of life.
@@alexverbaan to anyone reading this, figure out if any of your friends have studio monitors and ask them to go give them a listen one day, tell them a couple of your fav songs, it changed MY life, might change yours too
@@djexitvideos that's like getting your friends to try cocaine.

You people are so addicted to knowing everything about everyone.
@@yerdude I care less about what linus is like in real life and more for the comedy. Spouses ragging on each other is entertaining. I'm sure she has enough "WTF, Linus" moments to outlast channel super fun

Linus: “ I would love some new speakers, let’s make a video about it so we can book is as business expense”
Schwäbische Gene gespotted.
"You're on suck duty" definitely using this phrase the next time I see my girlfriend.
You know, when I need her to vacuum the house.
Supir Mini you had me in the first half not gonna lie..
Was at a friends recently when his girlfriend mentioned that a vacuum is the only thing you get rid of when it doesn't suck . both me and the friend said UMMMM at the same time in the same way and she instantly said "you guys are awful"
@@YukonWilleh I think she has a dirty mind, obviously, you get rid of water pumps when they don't suck too!
@@666Tomato666 HA! dammit i forgot about pumps !
@@YukonWilleh an elevator is also the only place where you don't get in trouble asking strangers if they're about to go down
Speakers in the ceiling always makes me feel like im In a department store you should install a intercom to make announcements
"Clean up. In the children's room"
In ceiling speakers make sense in an environment, where you don't have the space for speakers, but you want a good quality sound (ie kitchen, small bedroom)
Kids, clean your rooms, its bed time
TBH that could get pretty useful if you don't know where someone is in the house.
@@alhdgysz I haven't checked in a long time, but I have yet to hear any "good quality" ceiling speakers.

I would definitely recommend polk audio. Have a 8" sub in my 4x4 that I put in an undersized sealed box and have been pushing over twice the rated peak and about 1.5x the rated RMS to it for about 8 years, while off-roading through decently harsh conditions, never skipped a beat. puts out a good amount of base to for the size and how big/noisy of an area it has to fill.
The speaker placement with no regard for acoustics hurts my soul.
What would be an ideal speaker placement on the ceiling ? I have a feeling that since it's pointed down it's still terrible compared to any normal bookshelf speakers.
What would be an ideal speaker placement on the ceiling ?
@@AlohaBiatch I don't think there's really an ideal place for a speaker in the ceiling. You could possibly put it in a box to make it sound a bit nicer. Maybe a bit bassier too
@@devinmcdrip You are not wrong, a box is a good idea and many are actually sold with the box as an option. However it looks like the installs were done in the attic space where they should be covered in insulation, and vapour barrier. SOOO hopefully they did that off camera because speakers aren't that great and insulating. You'd end up with hot or cold spots on the ceiling depending on the season and possible condensation issues as hot air meats cold air in the winter. There should be a vapour barrier "box" placed over each speaker that's exposed to outside air, that "box" should be sealed with tuck tape or other brand of vapour barrier tape and then insulation placed over the vapour barrier box. That by itself will actually make them sound better as well if done correctly. I'm hoping it just made the video too long to show the entire process. Similar process to install pot lights in a ceiling exposed to outside air however fire rating for the pot light is important. These are great videos but they are NOT complete instructional videos as they leave out the "boring" details sometimes. Yes you may want to consult a professional if you haven't done or seen it done before by a pro.
@@AlohaBiatch You would need to do some testing, all depends on the room.
I'm convinced that Yvonne is the mastermind behind the whole LTT empire.
i mean she doesn't come up with the videos, but she does a lot behind the scenes running the company
Kinda. She does most of the Linus Media Group book keeping if memory serves.
Obviously. She's literally in charge of the company which is how she managed to get Linus out of his kickass office and took it over. Also her filing cabinet is covered in glitter. That's how you know you're the boss.
She is the CFO
Linus: "Everybody needs a clean hole"
Sure glad he didn't follow that up with "Only at LTTstore.com"

It's crazy how much of this mans personal life I know about. Linus literally puts everything out on display and I will never get over it
Weighs his wife on youtube.... brave man
I'm honestly surprised it didn't get censored.
He really did't have to worry she is very fit you can tell she works out 10x more than Linus :)
He didn't say, "you have to get up on the scale WITH the speaker." She is a grown woman who could have said she didn't want to.

Pretty good install! Dynamat makes some cool speaker boxes for in ceiling speakers that you should take a look at. Open backed in-ceiling speakers let a sound of the sound escape into the attic and between floors. Putting your cheaper open backed speakers in a dynamat box will not only help with the noise bleed but also improve the overall quality of the sound and make them sound better than more expensive lines.
Yvonne is the best I love that she called it a cross screw. While also being conscious of stud placement 🤣
She knows many things, just not what said things are called
@@Toastmaster_5000 I can relate
I forget sometimes call them plus and minus types.
She's Canadian so all she really has to know is that Robertson is superior.
Why spend that kind of money and then only put one speaker in a room?!? You're killing us Linus.
What's the point of a sound system when you only have one speaker.
People who don't like music apperently.
Or really, really old 78rpm shit-old music, that's mono already.
I wasn't going to point that out but yes I was wondering that myself. Maybe he will put more in later and just wanted to see how this would work out I do that all the time it drives my wife crazy she wants to get it all done and be done with it while I'm always slowly doing upgrades.
FLOP!
@@svgPhoenix All music from like the late 60s to today is recorded to be played back on 2 speakers. Depending on the track he might literally be missing certain sounds/instruments/effects by limiting it to one speaker per amp. And the whole concept of doing it this way to "simplify" things is a bit foolish. Having to crawl up into your attic to troubleshoot Sonos hardware in the event it has an issue sure doesn't sound "simple" to me lol
0:46 I watched the full thing in one sitting. Very informative, straight to the point, conversational. Thank you.
10 year pro installer here. Those Polk and the 6" variety are the absolute best sounding/value speaker around. The design is very dated, but SQ is great.
Should've brought back Brian the electrician.
Ceiling Cat/Brian should be a new feature... or a meme at least!
He would've cut a better hole.
Was expecting Brian to be there lol

Yvonne: "can we hide it in that corner?"
Translation: I don't want this garbage in my room messin up my ceiling!
And also make sure the wardrobe can block most of the sound from it. LOL
To get the most out of in ceiling speakers it's best to have an enclosure (back box) around them (the part that goes into the ceiling). You will notice better bass plus it also acts as noise isolation inside the ceiling.
Linus casually talking about keeping the holes clean and telling his wive that she is on "suck duty"...
And she asks herself what she married. Obviously a legend
Would totally watch a Yvonne Tech Tips that was more focused on design, aesthetics, and function than technical depth.
She's so cool
IYvonne
Design follows function. Normally... Today: Function! Function! Function! NEW Function!. - And when do we get to the design?" - NEW & IMPROVED function!!!!!!
Linus: *complains that smartphones dont have dual amplified speakers for stereo separation*
Also Linus: *installs a single $650 speaker for a whole room*
Matthew Davis it’s actually 2 for $650

lmao! good point. blast a loud "GET UP" through there along with a horn sound every 15 seconds will have them out of bed quickly.
@@Time4Technology Why not the audio of a military bugle playing reveille at full volume ? :D
I used to use a "clock stereo" from Best Buy as my alarm clock (basically a small all-in-one stereo system with 5-Disc CD, Tape, Radio, and I think the speakers are about 1.5 feet but they consider it to be a clock radio and not a stereo system). I literally had to get up and walk over to it to turn it off. I still somehow managed to fall back asleep (I'd sit down on my bed and next thing I'd know it was an hour later, fortunately the job I had at the time started late enough in the day that I wasn't late). Before that when I was in the Scouts I slept through reveille (didn't know it was spelled that way) on a number of occasions. I've also slept through a marching band directly outside my window (window was open) and a smoke alarm going off. I did eventually wake up to the smoke alarm after having a waking dream where I thought the sound was coming from a computer I had been working on then another waking dream where I realized it was coming from the smoke detector and tried to check it while in reality my body was still asleep. Not sure how long I was actually out for while it went off but, fortunately it was a false alarm (looking back at it now I guess something in the detector circuit shorted). I'm actually a bit of an insomniac and have a lot of trouble falling asleep so when I do fall asleep I'm out cold.
I would...
I'd play where are you dear general every morning at 6 am lol
I had to install hundreds of these kinds of speakers at the university. Fortunately the drop ceilings make it more convenient. The wiring was a good way to use up some old cat5.
I have a 7.2 setup with all speakers from Monoprice.
All the in-ceiling speakers are the Monoprice Caliber series (Kevlar woofers & silk dome tweeters), and the two in-wall subs are Monoprice Aria series. This was all done before they made THX certified equipment. They sound pretty decent too
10:47 "Are you sure, cuz you do that for your computer speakers and stuff. Maybe you would." 😂
lol
Linus ends the video right away
Always leave it to the wife to call out your own contradictions, hypocrisies and BS, lol. They are around you all the time putting up with our BS, so they know ;)
I think it was her idea to put the speakers and he was basically talking shit about the prices so she hit him with that
A wise man, knows when to close the front door. He just sent the add right away and pray she don't say that again.
All the squirrels in Linus' attic are going to start having Rave parties
no more CRAB RAVE

They might just leave after hearing his theme song all day, everyday, everywhere.
Those parties always end with a fight with porcupines.

Thanks for making me laugh so hard 😂
Quick cuts of Yvonne and Linus banter are possibly my favorite LTT genre.
It's nice when Linus validates things I've already done... down to the exact speaker and Sonos amp models.

Not finished upgrade so haven’t bought PB3000 yet. Rather spend the money on the main speakers and save on in ceiling. Reviews seemed really good for Atmos purposes.
I love how Yvonne called out Linus on his excess spending when it comes to computer speakers. Good to know I'm not the only one being checked by their wife
@rogerwilco99 My wife does this (spends a little bit here and a little bit there and before you know it, the ~$5k we had in the bank is gone without much to show for it) and she is a bit miffed that I started a savings account that she cannot easily access to get around this issue (mainly that it doesn't show up when she checks the bank so the money isn't burning a figurative hole in her pockets).
And in before people call me names or say bad things about this, she has the same access to our shared every day spending account as I do and she knows how to access the savings account if she really wants to.
Everyone gonna get checked out by theirs wife :(

No Yvonne, anyone who's been watching long enough knows exactly who bought that.

I love polk in wall speakers for the money. I got some open box units that are rectangle with 8" driver for only $100 a pair. They rock my garage and the install is clean! Already had an older Onkyo stereo receiver around so was just out the cost of speakers and wire.

@@milanthakkar9493 Z130. I think the cheapest ones.
We need Yvonne on TechLinked again. She was so awesome

5:10 Yvonne putting herself on the scale there...that's some real confidence.
It shouldn't need confidence but it does, yeah. Even if she was embarrassed, though, she took the precaution of using freedom units so nobody would know what it meant!
@@armadillito If only LTT didn't have such a substantial American audience...
why is she so heavy
oh its 53 kg its using retarded units
isn't canada metric?
I like the Yvonne Linus duo videos. So much healthy banter 😂❤️
I think the better option would be to get a decent multi-channel amp, and a few Sonos connect preamps. Definitely stereo sound in each room, and the speakers toward the center of the room. Or for even cheaper, you can get a multi-channel amp with an Apple AirPort Express. I have one for my outdoor P.A. system and it works great. My friends and I all have Macs, iPhones, and iPads so we can easily AirPlay to them for music outside. Might get some more speakers and AirPorts for my whole house.
I think ive seen the inside of linus' attic more than i have my own
Box: "professional in-wall speakers"
Linus: *aight let's install those bad boys in the celling*
What is a ceiling, if not a horizontal wall?
@@wasecheber I-
Aight you win this one
@@wasecheber Maybe how the speaker connects to the drywall is where the difference is? I mean if you have tiny little tabs it would work fine for in wall because the force of gravity isn't pulling out against the tabs that is going straight down on top of the drywall, not to mention the vibrations from the speaker itself, where as an in ceiling speaker may have a more robust mounting system to so that it can hold the weight and vibrations ... *shrug* I'm just guessing here mind you.
@@Mike__B that is correct
As someone who does this work for a living... YES, you absolutely should have called a professional. I was yelling at my tv thw whole time.
I had a "whole home audio setup" in my trailer from the 80s. Had an 8 track reciver built into the living room wall and 2 speakers in the living room, and one in every other room including the bathroom. Came from the factory like that, I kinda miss it
im still running my FISHER st/58 speakers with modern nylon/rubber 10inch drivers(came with old school cardboard drivers😂), made in denmark in the early 80s and still rocking😎
Huh, that's quite nice

Gotta get those tax write offs
@@joshdavis4168 Yup, so he's saving 13% if he gets the full tax write off, still has to pay for the whole base cost.
We let him do it wrong, so we can do it right
I’d recommend Rockford fosgate speakers and woofers they’re great. I’m even planning to install some of the car audio versio ones in my room
Pro tip, just install them in the wall in retrofit lol, unless you have an attic up there. Also you can do a single speaker in each room, the amp has a mono setting! Also use a jab saw and definitely not a powered saw to make your hole because there could be electrical cables in the wall or pipes. It's better to put the amps inside of a closet or something because the attic might get a bit hot, so make sure you have attic fans to keep the attic cool, or install the amps inside of a rack with active cooling to keep them at 92 degrees.

"Definitely a lot better"

i wonder what that was even about :D
Haha, that was a sick burn.
Weird moment right there
That’s every wife

When linus has his own ads it’s like OH!
sonos is a solid product, i run a port into a rotel rb 1080 powering a pair of totem rainmakers for the kitchen it sounds great, at the same time a zp100 i bought in 2007 for the backyard speakers, what other tech speaker company provides such quality and integration options, nevermind the fact i can mix decades old product with new and it all works seamlessly
His wife seems a lot more professional than he does, she double checks the placement of the speaker like by the studs and the cracked drywall.
Of course. You've seen Linus build a computer before, he flies by the seat of his pants. Yvonne has learned to compensate
@@porcubot Perfectly said.
His wife also must have given him that neck lineup because the neck hair was starting to get wild and disgusting
Well why do you think husbands often call our wives our better half? :)
She's a women of course she pays attention to crucial things such as those. I always have my wife go through and double check the look of everything because she will tell me if things don't look good. Granted she always finds small things that make me mad because she doesn't take into account the workload but it's nice to have a women's opinion on small details.
lol I like how they interrupted the video just so Yvonne could prove that yes, the speaker weighs more than 2lbs
That was Yvonne flexing on how fit she is.
They first show 117 lbs on the scale and then reveal the speaker weighs almost 6 lbs
And she's had 3 kids. That is seriously impressive.
@@melissablick779 Agreed - I don't think Linus realizes he's lucky to have a wife who keeps her figure even after just 1 kid.
She sounds extremely smart as well.
@@melissablick779 that is like Asian superpowers
@@alexmawdsley She has a bachelor's in pharmaceutical science and is LMG's CFO. So yeah, she's pretty smart.

Nothing beats vintage gear! My dad whiped out an old 80's Kenwood amp with 80's Bose speakers and damn it kinda sounds better than my modern M-Audio monitors!
I love how Linus‘ children have more tech in their room than me, a computer science student. 😂

As someone who’s Russound SDB 6.2 burnt out last week, I was nodding throughout the whole thing
His kids don’t understand how much of a cool dad he is...
Maybe they do
You’re going to get only half the soundtrack on that second speaker you installed! That is a single channel speaker, only has one tweeter. If you want just one ceiling speaker in a room, get a Stereo In-Ceiling Speaker, it has two tweeters to provide both left and right channels! Kind of surprised he did not discuss this or pick up on it
It doesn't matter how the speaker is set up but wired mostly. If he wired the amp to play the speaker in mono, then that speaker will play both channels.
Its called a dvc. Dual voice coil. It has two pairs of terminals and the main speaker cone has two voice coils. Sometimes they do have two tweeters but that's not what makes them stereo capable.
@@DelTalkoh definitely! this is certainly an option.
@@tangyspongesauce lol was trying to think of the term! I have learned something new...I am used to seeing DVC speakers having two tweeters - I thought in all cases duel tweeters would be necessary, but I guess not. Still surprised it did not warrant any mentioning on the video.
Thats not true you are thinking of stereo vs single dual or triple coil. single dual or triple is just to seperate your highs mids and lows. It gives you a cleaner sound that is why you have crossovers on amps for sub to know what frequency to pick up the bass. With stereo he can wire those speakers to suit him just fine.
