This system sounds awesome. **Q: Is speaker wire included?** A: Yes, included. But I replaced it for thicker wire 16- gauge when I installed speakers constantly on walls. **Q: Can I mount them on the ceiling?** A: Thanks for your question. Each speaker has a keyhole opening in the back to allow for easy wall-mounting. The keyhole opening is not suitable for ceiling mounting.
