KEF Ci160TR Round In-Ceiling Speaker

🧾 Overview

The KEF Ci160TR is an ultra-slim architectural in-ceiling speaker designed for premium installations where mounting depth is extremely limited. With wide dispersion, weather-resistant construction, and a paintable magnetic grille, it delivers true hi-fi sound while staying visually discreet.

✅ Key Features

✅ Ultra-shallow installation: only 36 mm mounting depth for tight ceiling cavities

✅ Wide 160° coverage for even sound across the listening area

✅ 115 mm low-profile mid/bass driver + 25 mm vented aluminium tweeter for clean, detailed playback

✅ KEF Tangerine Waveguide™ for smoother treble dispersion and better off-axis clarity

✅ IP64-certified, moisture-resistant design for bathrooms, pool areas, and demanding environments

✅ Ultra-Thin Bezel (UTB) + paintable magnetic grille for a near-invisible finish

✅ Optional rough-in frame (RIF160R) and optional rear enclosure (RNC160R) for cleaner, more controlled installs
