Revolutionary Uni-Q Driver Array

At the heart of the Ci3160RLM-THX lies KEF’s signature 3-way driver layout featuring the industry-leading Uni-Q driver array. By placing the tweeter at the acoustic center of the midrange driver, the Uni-Q array functions as a single, coherent source. This innovative design ensures greater sound dispersion throughout your room, effectively widening the "sweet spot" so every listener enjoys high-fidelity audio regardless of their seating position. You will experience a natural, expansive soundstage that elevates your favorite movies and music to new heights.

Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT)

This model features a 1" vented aluminum dome tweeter enhanced by KEF’s groundbreaking Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT). MAT utilizes a highly complex, maze-like internal structure that absorbs up to 99% of unwanted sound waves radiating from the back of the tweeter. By eliminating these distorted reflections, the resulting output is remarkably clearer, more natural, and free from the colorization common in standard architectural speakers. The result is pure, accurate audio reproduction that stays true to the artist's original intent.
