The KEF Ci160QR Uni-Q is a high-performance in-ceiling speaker engineered for custom installations in residential and commercial environments. Combining KEF’s world-renowned acoustic expertise with a sleek, minimalist design, the Ci160QR delivers immersive, room-filling sound while remaining virtually invisible when installed. It is ideal for home theaters, distributed multi-room audio systems, or background music applications where both performance and aesthetics are paramount.
At the heart of the Ci160QR is KEF’s Uni-Q® driver array, featuring a 19 mm (0.75 in.) tweeter positioned precisely at the acoustic center of the 160 mm (6.5 in.) low-frequency driver. This innovative configuration ensures wide, even sound dispersion, providing clear, detailed highs, natural midrange, and controlled bass across the listening area. With a frequency response of 38 Hz–34 kHz (±6 dB) and 89 dB sensitivity, the speaker produces precise, high-fidelity audio that fills the room with minimal distortion.
Designed for effortless installation, the Ci160QR features a flush-mount paintable white grille that seamlessly integrates into ceilings. The mounting system accommodates ceiling thicknesses from 6 mm to 36 mm, and the optional RIF160R rough-in frame simplifies pre-construction planning. Its 8‑ohm nominal impedance and recommended amplifier power range of 10–125 W ensure compatibility with most AV receivers and amplifiers, making it flexible and easy to integrate.
Whether used individually or as part of a multi-speaker array, the KEF Ci160QR combines audiophile-quality sound with elegant, discreet design. It delivers the perfect balance of performance, versatility, and aesthetic integration for any custom installation project.
