Experience high-impact, immersive sound with the latest additions to KEF’s Extreme Home Theatre range – the Ci5160RLM-THX and Ci3160RLM-THX. These in-wall architectural speakers deliver sound with unrivalled detail and depth, and provide a new emotional level of entertainment when watching movies, playing games, and listening to music.

With decades of experience in acoustic innovation and an ongoing quest for music perfection, KEF has produced the Ci-R Series, a direct beneficiary of the technological innovations developed for The Reference, the class-leading series that continually set the benchmark for loudspeakers and sound reproduction since its launch in 1973. With a paintable metallic grille, they seamlessly blend into any home decor and allow listeners to truly immerse themselves in sound, hearing all of the details exactly as the artist intended, whether set up in large home theatres or living rooms alike.

Incorporating a 12th generation Uni-Q driver array featuring KEF’s ground-breaking Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MATTM), the Ci-R Series speakers are guaranteed to deliver the best experience to every listening position in the room. This fusion of cutting-edge engineering, design, and precise craftsmanship delivers every nuance and whisper as well as earth-shattering sounds with astonishing clarity and impact.
