The Yamaha NS-IC600 is a full-fledged 2-way coaxial in-ceiling speaker for invisible sound that's meant to deliver more than just background music.
The 16 cm PP-mica cone and the coaxially mounted, swiveling 2.5 cm dome deliver a spatially clean, well-localized soundstage. The sealed rear chamber protects the driver from dust.
Why the NS-IC600?
Because coaxially built drivers radiate voices and highs from a single point – that sounds more coherent and better localized than separate drivers. The swiveling tweeter can be aimed at the listening position, handy when the speaker isn't sitting directly above the sofa.
What you hear
A clean, well-localized sound with proper level and substance for living spaces – more depth and clarity than a simple full-range model, without a visible box.
Who is the NS-IC600 suited for?
For living spaces where the ceiling should provide sound, but the speaker shouldn't be seen. Straight talk: the NS-IC600 is the all-rounder of the IC range – enough bass and level for normal living rooms, more compact than the larger 800. Anyone wanting to fill an entire living/dining area or an in-ceiling home cinema front should go for the 20 cm NS-IC800 model.
Our verdict
The sensible middle ground in the IC range: full-fledged coaxial sound, adjustable, compact enough for most rooms. If you want real sound from the ceiling instead of mere background noise, this is the right choice.

Frequently asked questions
What's the benefit of the swiveling tweeter?
You can aim the highs at the listening position, even when the speaker isn't sitting directly above it – this noticeably improves localization and clarity.
NS-IC600 or NS-IC800?
The 600 (16 cm) is enough for normal living spaces. For large rooms or more deep bass, go for the 800 with its 20 cm woofer.
How deep does the ceiling need to be?
You need around 109 mm of installation depth and an opening of approx. Ø 242 mm. Check the ceiling's load-bearing capacity and any hidden cables beforehand.
