Experience exceptional audio clarity and immersive sound with the KEF Ci3160RLM-THX In-Wall Speaker. Designed to meet THX standards, this expertly engineered speaker delivers precise, room-filling sound while seamlessly integrating into your home’s décor. Its advanced Uni-Q driver array ensures detailed, natural audio reproduction, making it ideal for high-end home theater systems or sophisticated audio setups. Elevate your listening environment with a discreet solution that combines superior performance and elegant design.

The Ci3160RLM-THX is an in-wall architectural speaker featuring the 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with KEF's ground breaking Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™), refined to maximise its full potential and proudly carries the THX Certified Ultra designation. Together with two 6.5" (165 mm) hybrid aluminium bass drivers, it delivers the most dynamic audio experience for home theatres.

Since 1961, KEF has been dedicated to faithfully reproducing sound in its purest form – just as the artist intended. Decades of experience in acoustic innovation on the quest for music perfection now combine in the Ci-R Series: delivering sound with unrivalled detail and depth that consistently sparks excitement with every encounter.

Ci-R series speakers are built to the same exacting standards as R Series, which is 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.

The Ci3160RLM-THX architectural speaker from the KEF Extreme Home Theatre range is a case in point. Incorporating a 12th generation Uni-Q driver array it features KEF's ground breaking Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT), refined to maximise its full potential, and proudly carries the THX Certified Ultra designation - one of the highest THX® performance classes. This fusion of cutting-edge engineering, design and precision craftsmanship delivers every nuance, whisper, and sonic explosion with astonishing clarity and impact, in large home theatres and living rooms alike.

12th Generation Uni-Q Driver Array with MAT

At the heart of Ci3160RLM-THX sits the latest example of KEF's signature driver array - Uni-Q. Now in its 12th generation, this remarkable feat of engineering acts as a point source, dispersing sound more evenly allowing everyone to experience the same natural detailed sound, wherever in the room they are.

The Ci3160RLM-THX also benefits from another ground breaking acoustic innovation: Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT). MAT is a highly complex maze-like structure that absorbs 99% of the unwanted sound from the rear of the tweeter, delivering a crisper, more natural treble performance.

Powerful, Room-Filling High-Fidelity Sound

Bass is a vital element of performance. The two bass drivers in Ci3160RLM-THX have a two-part structure with a shallow, concave, aluminium skin over a paper cone. This stiffness, combined with the cone's unique geometry, achieves a piston-like movement for punch and speed. The drivers' motor system creates a broad and uniform magnetic field, delivering impressive and impactful bass at any volume.

To enhance performance further, fully rebalanced crossovers have been implemented to achieve superior on and off-axis frequency response. The Ci3160RLM-THX carries the prestigious THX® Certified Ultra designation, having undergone rigorous tests in output levels, frequency response, signal-to-noise ratio and distortion, ensuring it recreates high-impact cinema sound and best-in-class audio fidelity.

The result is breathtaking – realistic, immersive sound for remarkably dynamic music, gaming, TV, and movies.

Total Attention To Detail

Ci3160RLM-THX is designed to be both acoustically and visually exceptional, meticulously refined and engineered to KEF's unparalleled standards.

The 5.5mm thick, precision-machined aluminium baffle of Ci3160RLM-THX is not only a mark of quality and aesthetic excellence, but also eliminates vibration and provides a stoic platform for the drivers to perform at their best.
