I would not put a speaker in a ceiling under any circumstances. Rear/surround speakers should be mounted just above ear-level from the primary seating position, not high above the room. No theater uses ceiling speakers, and there's a reason for that. Who does use in-ceiling speakers? Warehouses, airports supermarket and other places with crappy public address systems that are only secondarily used for (bad) music. Which are you trying to replicate in your home?

Regards,

Joe
