Collection: Active Ceiling Speakers

Active ceiling speakers build the amplifier right into the speaker, so you get discreet, room-filling sound without wiring up a separate hi-fi unit.

Choose Bluetooth for simple single-room streaming, or WiFi for synchronised multi room audio across the whole home.

What Makes a Ceiling Speaker "Active"?

An active speaker is self-powered, with its own amplifier inside. That means no external amplifier to buy, house or hide away.

The word "wireless" here refers to how you stream your music, not how the speaker is powered. Every active ceiling speaker still needs a mains power connection to work.

On a stereo pair, you get one active (master) speaker that contains the amplifier and one passive (slave) speaker. The two are joined by a short run of speaker cable, which is normally supplied in the box.

Bluetooth or WiFi Multiroom?

Bluetooth is the simplest and most affordable option.

You pair your phone or tablet, press play and you are streaming, which makes our Bluetooth ceiling speakers ideal for a single room such as a kitchen, bedroom or bathroom.

WiFi is the choice for whole-home sound. Because they connect to your network rather than a single device, WiFi multiroom ceiling speakers can be grouped and synchronised through an app, so the same track plays in perfect time from room to room.

Choosing the Right System for Your Home

Active systems are brilliant for retrofitting, letting you add music to an already decorated home with minimal disruption.

Many models are IP-rated too, making them suitable for bathrooms and en-suites.

If you are covering larger rooms or want the highest sound quality, a more traditional ceiling speaker system is worth considering instead. You can also browse our full ceiling speaker range to compare every option.

Whichever route you take, an active ceiling speaker system delivers a clean, clutter-free listening experience that blends seamlessly into any modern interior.
