Reference‑Level Home Theatre Performance with MAT™ and 12th‑Gen Uni‑Q

The KEF Ci3160RLM‑THX is a masterpiece of architectural loudspeaker engineering—an in‑wall solution designed for Extreme Home Theatre installations where uncompromised clarity, dynamics, and cinematic realism are essential. Proudly carrying the THX Certified Ultra designation, it delivers the power, precision, and tonal accuracy required for large home theatres and luxury media rooms.

At the heart of the Ci3160RLM‑THX is KEF’s 12th‑generation Uni‑Q driver array, enhanced with Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™). This groundbreaking acoustic innovation absorbs 99% of unwanted sound from the rear of the tweeter, dramatically reducing distortion and revealing pristine detail across the entire frequency range. The result is breathtaking transparency, lifelike dialogue, and a wide, immersive soundstage.

Supporting the Uni‑Q are two 6.5‑inch hybrid aluminium bass drivers, engineered for deep, tight, and controlled low‑frequency performance. Whether reproducing explosive cinematic effects or the subtle textures of a musical score, the Ci3160RLM‑THX delivers bass with authority and precision.

The speaker is built on a 5.5 mm precision‑machined aluminium baffle, eliminating unwanted vibrations and providing a rigid, stable platform for the drivers to perform at their absolute best. Every detail from the tone‑matched drivers to the seamless integration options—reflects KEF’s commitment to reference‑level performance.

With a paintable magnetic metal grille and an optional black cloth grille, the Ci3160RLM‑THX blends effortlessly into any interior while delivering sound that is anything but discreet. Finished in Aluminium Silver, it is crafted to perfection both visually and acoustically.

For high‑end home cinemas, large living rooms, and immersive media environments, the Ci3160RLM‑THX stands as one of KEF’s most advanced architectural loudspeakers—bringing true theatre sound quality into the heart of your home.
