KEF Ci160MR PAIR 6.5" 2-Way In-Ceiling Speakers

The KEF Ci160MR is a high performance speaker designed for in-ceiling and flush mount installations. It uses a coincident point source design featuring KEF’s proprietary “sitanywhere” Uni-Q® technology with a driver array that includes a 16mm high frequency aluminium tweeter mounted in the acoustic centre of the 160mm low frequency woofer. The tweeter features KEF’s Tangerine Waveguide engineered to enhance high frequency dispersion and when combined with the Uni-Q array, creates a speaker that delivers exceptionally smooth and consistent sound across a wide listening area. It meets IP64 certification requirements and is specifically engineered to deliver exceptional acoustic performance in a value oriented package. The ABS assembly, Ultra-Thin Bezel and grille, are UV protected. The KEF Ci160MR is the ideal choice for whole house music, foreground, background, Home Theater and Dolby Atmos applications.

Key Features
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 space. Because the high and low frequencies originate from the same point, acoustic lobing problems common to other  speaker designs are virtually eliminated allowing fewer speakers to deliver smooth coverage across a wide listening area.

• Weather Resistant – Manufactured using a proprietary grille plating and powder coating process, the KEF Ci160MR is UV protected and designed to withstand the harshest operating environments.
• Magnetic Grille – For security and ease of installation the grille attaches by a powerful magnetic circuit and can be painted to match any décor.
• Universal Cut-Out – All KEF 160mm or CI200mm round inceiling speakers utilise the same diameter openings for ease of installation and flexible component selection.
• IP64 Certification – The speaker passed official IEC testing to ensure that splashing water would have no harmful effects on assembly components.

Architect and Engineer Specifications
The speaker shall be designed for in-ceiling and flush mount installations and utilise a coincident point source design with the high frequency tweeter mounted in the centre of the low frequency woofer.

The Ci160MR speaker consists of a 160mm low frequency woofer and a 16mm aluminium dome high frequency tweeter mounted in a UV protected ABS baffle with a paintable bezel of no more than 5mm in width. The grille is also be paintable, includes a paint shield, and attach by a powerful magnetic circuit for ease of installation and security. The speaker design is open back and delivers a minimum frequency response of 52Hz-20kHz +/- 6 dB.

The nominal impedance of the speaker is 8 ohms and achieves a minimum pressure sensitivity of 89 dB SPL at 1 meter on-axis with an input of 2.83 volts. The crossover frequency between the woofer and tweeter is 2.8kHz. The speaker meets numerous safety and performance standards listed by regulatory bodies around the world.
