KEF Ci Series Motorized In-Ceiling Speakers

The most elegant design solution to the perennial problem of where to place the all-important front speakers in a high-end home theater installation, the motorized Ci3-80QT purrs down into position from the ceiling. With a 75mm (3") Uni-Q® array flanked by a pair of long-throw bass drivers of the same size, it combines Uni-Q’s exceptionally wide dispersion characteristics with fluent and accurate response right across the frequency range. Whispered or shouted, on-screen dialogue and vocals become transparently clear, subtly nuanced and as perfectly located as the speakers themselves.
