Does anyone have experiences of Niles in-ceiling and outdoor speakers?

I have currently used Sonance, B&W and Boston in-ceiling speakers, how do Niles MP and HD series compare?

Thanks for any help.

In the past I've used B&W and Sonance, and presently use Niles, Boston, Triad and KEF. Personally, I prefer KEF, Boston, Triad and B&W. The last four offer superior sound quality. The Sonance I actually dislike and the Niles are soso. Also the Sonance and Niles are freely available to trunk slammers so why compete.

We use A/D/S, Canton, Monitor Audio, KEF, PSB, MB Quartz. Niles makes a nice single stereo speaker that we us in bathrooms and walk in closets I think the model # is CM 625.For outdoor we use Mirage oasis.

Interesting you mention KEF as these are the speakers I have used for the last 5 years and always been fairly happy.
I'll try and listen to the Niles before Speccing them

Thanks.

also anyone had experience of the Xantech MRC44 system, looks interesting.

I have used Niles, Sonance, B&W, KEF and many more.
If you compare any Sonance product with any brand at the same price range....Sonace is better.
The built quality is excelent...not compared with KEF, but is very good.
Niles is just ok for me and is a low quality product, believe me I had many problems with new speakers.

I have used the MRC44 and is an excellent unit and the customer loved the keypad. The keypad is fully programmable and you can program press and Hold functions, macros on each button.

Like Sonnance not too impressed with Niles, at my new job, we use alot of Paradigm inwalls, and Boston outdoors, quite nice for the money.

I have always used the Boston Voyager series outdoors as customers seem to love them.
I used sonance mariner 200s in a swimming pool but I always worry about them blowing as Sonance power handling seems to be a lot lower. (this particular customer plays them quite loud).

I've switched to Niles exclusively for remodels, but only use the HD series. Mostly 6.5" and 8" rounds in ceilings. OS10's and 20's outdoors. They work well with multiamp systems. Bass, treble and tweeter angle can be fine tuned on each speaker. Very nice imaging with these speakers. Folks always comment on the sound quality so it's not just my ears.
