Ci160.2QS Description
The Ci Series Ci 160.2QS is high-fidelity flush-mount loudspeaker utilising a fourth generation Uni-Q® driver array.
The driver array is mounted into a moulded ABS baffle and along with KEF's simple and ingenious screw down clamping system - with moisture-resistant fixings - allows placement even in the harshest environments such as bathrooms or even under eaves.
The bezel and stainless steel grille can be painted to specification or covered by fabric to suit the style of the room.
The 2-way Ci 160.2QS combines 80W power handling and 87dB sensitivity, with a frequency response (±3dB) of 60Hz - 20kHz and a maximum output of 108dB.
Features and Benefits
- Fourth generation Uni-Q® driver array:
Superb off-axis dispersion characteristics from the coincident source driver arrangement with greater flexibility of positioning that comes from such a wide sound stage.
- 160mm (6.5”) bass/mid driver:
Good bass extension from a flush-mount loudspeaker.
- 25mm (1”) soft dome ferrofluid cooled tweeter:
Excellent power handling and smooth response.
- Stainless steel bezel and grille:
Can be painted to specification or covered by fabric to suit the style of the room.
Applications
The Ci Series Ci 160.2QS is best suited for high quality music and
speech reinforcement applications requiring hi-fi performance such as:
- Multi Room systems
- Home Theatre systems
- Lounges, Bars, Boutiques
- Boardrooms & Offices
- Airports, Convention Centres, Hotels
- Live Theatre/Concert Hall fill-in
- Houses of Worship
- Sports Arenas.
