Design and Installation

In-Wall Design: The Ci3160RLB-THX is designed to be mounted flush within walls, allowing it to blend seamlessly into any room without taking up floor space. This design is particularly advantageous in home theaters where aesthetics and space optimisation are important.

Easy Integration:
The subwoofer is designed to work in conjunction with KEF's in-wall and in-ceiling speakers, allowing for cohesive sound integration across all speaker types.
KEF offers a range of speakers designed to deliver high-quality sound while seamlessly integrating into various environments. These speakers are part of KEF's Ci (Custom Install) series and are known for their innovative Uni-Q driver array technology, which places the tweeter in the center of the midrange cone. This design allows for a more even dispersion of sound throughout a room, making KEF speakers ideal for home theater systems and multi-room audio setups.
