Introducing the T Series
KEF's T series of architectural speakers deliver unprecedented performance and flexibility when there is limited space behind the wall or ceiling. Needing less than 36 mm (1.44 in.) of mounting depth both the Round Ci160TR and Square Ci160TS are the thinnest ever for a two-way speaker design. Complimenting them is the Ci200TRb, a remarkable 200mm (8 in.) woofer needing only 59mm (2.375 in.) of mounting depth.
The KEF Ci T series 1 inch aluminum dome tweeter features KEF's unique "tangerine waveguide" for natural high-frequency response with wide and even dispersion. The rigid, flat, 4.5 inch diaphragm of the MF driver (derived from KEF's Ultra-Time T series on-wall speakers) provides clean upper bass and mid-rangee with excellent bass extension – all in an assembly less than 1.5 inches thick. Now every installer's nightmare – ductwork, electrical conduits and plumbing situated in the exact spot the in-wall speaker needs to go – can easily be turned into a dream install.
All three model features KEF's Ultra-Thin Bezel (UTB) technology which offers the thinnest possible visible rim around the speaker assembly. With the speaker grilles in place the T Series is indistinguishable from other KEF architectural speakers, giving installers and designers the freedom to place a speaker even in the most challenging of design environments.
All KEF speakers are timbre matched as well, allowing you to mix speakers from different series as necessary. You can easily design a systems with KEF's standard-depth architectural speakers and use the T Series in places standard-depth speakers won't work.
The Ci200TRb is the perfect complement to extend the bass response of the Ci160TR and Ci160TS. In passive mode the Ci200TRb can be wired in parallel with the main speakers to deliver the LF response of a world class 200m (8 in.) speaker. While using the Ci200TRb in active mode with a KEF KASA500 system amp will create a thunderous powered subwoofer system, perfect for a discrete home theater installation.
All KEF Ci architectural speaker, including the T Series, are manufactured to Marine Grade Construction standards: The grilles are coated via a proprietary process, the speakers include moisture-resistant terminations and finish materials, and the plastics are UV protected. All are built to withstand harsh salt-spray and humid environments, allowing you to safely use these speakers in applications other speakers simply cannot be considered for – bathrooms, poolside or on your yacht.
