KEF Ci160RR-THX In-Ceiling Speaker

KEF Ci160RR-THX In-Ceiling Speaker with Uni-Q Driver Array

The KEF Ci160RR-THX is a high-performance coincident point source loudspeaker designed for discreet in-ceiling or in-wall installations. It features patented Uni-Q technology with a 1 (25mm) high frequency tweeter mounted in the acoustic centre of the 6.5 (165mm) low frequency woofer delivering exceptionally wide dispersion and hi fidelity audio across a large listening area. As a THX Certified Ultra architectural loudspeaker, Ci160RR-THX is specifically engineered to maintain exceptional sound quality at high outputs. Its performance and design characteristics make the Ci160RR-THX the ideal choice for foreground, background, speech, and cinematic applications including 3D immersive audio formats such as Dolby Atmos.

KEF Sit Anywhere Uni-Q Technology

This proprietary driver array places the tweeter in the acoustic centre of the woofer delivering wide dispersion with consistent sound characteristics throughout the room. Because the high and low frequencies originate from the same point in space, acoustic lobing problems common to other speaker designs are virtually eliminated and imaging is greatly improved to effectively shift the sound to appear as if its originating from behind the video screen.

Tangerine Waveguide

In addition to protecting the driver, the Tangerine Waveguide further enhances dispersion allowing for 130 degrees of coverage.

25mm High Frequency Tweeter

The high-power handling aluminium dome tweeter has a wide frequency response and can continuously deliver extremely high output with no audible distortion.

Weather Resistant

Manufactured using a proprietary plating and powder coating process, the KEF Ci160RR-THX is UV protected and designed to withstand harsh operating environments.

IP64 Certification

The speaker passed official IEC testing to ensure that splashing water would have no harmful effects on assembly components.

Ultra-Thin Bezel (UTB)

To maintain a premium aesthetic appearance, the ABS bezel was carefully engineered to be as thin as possible while maintaining the necessary structural rigidity.

Magnetic Grille

For security and ease of installation the grille attaches by a powerful magnetic circuit and can be painted to match any dcor.

THX Ultra Certification

The KEF Ci160RR-THX endured nearly 500 THX laboratory tests to ensure it delivers full impact entertainment experiences just as the artist intended.

Universal Cut-Out

All KEF 160 mm in-ceiling round speakers utilise the same diameter opening for ease of installation and flexible component selection.
