About The KEF Ci200QR In-Ceiling Speaker
The stylish Ci200QR's thin bezel and narrow rim allow for flawless integration into your ceiling and KEF's new Uni-Q driver which spreads sound over a wider area enabling you to use less speakers. These two features alone combine to make the Ci200QR perfect for any space.
Featuring KEF's sophisticated 'sit anywhere' Uni-Q driver array, which places the tweeter in the acoustic centre of the bass/midrange cone, this allows both the tweeter and woofer to act as a single point source that disperses the sound widely and evenly throughout the room. Together with the discreet Ultra Thin Bezel (UTB) design, offering the slimmest possible visible rim around the speaker, the Ci-Q Series gives you tremendous freedom to position the speakers where you please.
KEF's award-winning box speakers are a popular choice among audiophiles around the world. But the British Hi-Fi company also makes a line of discreet "custom installation" speakers that offer excellent sound. The Ci200QR delivers full-range performance with solid bass, thanks to its 8" (203 mm) woofer and 1" (25 mm) aluminium dome tweeter. It also uses some of the same beloved technologies found in KEF's traditional speakers.
The Ci200QR includes a low-profile grille that you can paint to match your room's décor. Plus it's magnetic, so attaching it is a breeze.
Our Take
For those of us that have not only a need for In-Ceiling speakers, but a desire for something that has been designed to sound good, KEF is a company you can trust. Looking at the improvements they've made over the years shows clearly that they are thinking about the specific use of the speaker in the home environment and even in the future.
You'll enjoy superior In-Ceiling performance at a modest price with any of the KEF custom speaker range. The Ci200QR's are suitable for rear surround or Dolby Atmos speakers in a home theatre setup, as well as in multi-room stereo music systems where you want something better than just "also ran" performance but still want to keep a reign on the budget.
For the consummate handy man or woman, installing the KEF Ci200QR is a relatively straight forward DIY job.
