Overview
The Ci5160REFM-THX is a Ci-Reference in-wall speaker built around KEF's 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT). It is KEF's first in-wall speaker to carry THX Certified Dominus, the highest THX performance class, and is intended for large dedicated home theatres and living spaces.
Four 160 mm bass drivers sit above and below the Uni-Q array on an 11 mm precision-machined aluminium baffle. KEF designs, engineers and hand-builds the Ci-Reference range in Maidstone, UK.
