Work on refitting my kitchen/diner starts soon.part of the work involves removing a wall and replacing the ceiling. It is an L-shaped room 5.5m x 4m.
I currently use a Denon M39 microsystem with the Denon speakers sitting on top of the wall units, but there will be no wall units in the new dining area. Wall brackets will look ugly, so I'm considering ceiling speakers.
Main use is for TV, but some music also.

The Monitor audio range seems to be recommended frequently, so I was looking at the CT165. Something I noticed while searching was that the CT165 T2 can be used as a single speaker, and this might be a better idea - more consistent sound at different listening positions (seated in dining area or standing in kitchen).

Would a single CT165 T2, sited in the corner above the TV, be OK, or should I go for a pair of CT165?

Thanks. I'll go for the single speaker.
