The KEF Ci200ER is the flagship model of KEF’s Ci-E Series — delivering superior in-ceiling audio with subtle aesthetics and high-quality performance. Designed with KEF’s innovative Uni-Q® driver and Ultra-Thin Bezel (UTB™) technology, the Ci200ER offers wide sound dispersion and minimal visual intrusion. Engineered to perform in moisture-prone environments, it’s an ideal choice for high-end distributed audio in living rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, and commercial spaces alike.
Featuring a large 200mm (8") low-frequency driver and a 16mm (0.6") aluminium dome tweeter, the Ci200ER integrates KEF’s patented Uni-Q® technology to position the tweeter at the acoustic centre of the woofer. This design delivers more consistent audio across the room without relying on a narrow sweet spot. Its Ultra-Thin Bezel ensures the grille sits nearly flush with the ceiling, and the magnetic, paintable grille can be customised to blend seamlessly with any interior décor.
