Information Sheet
The in-wall Ci Series 9000ACE from KEF
is a innovative new advance into custom
installed loudspeakers. The 165mm (61⁄2")
Uni-Q®driv
er array brings out the full
emotional depth and texture of vocals,
whether sung, shouted, spoken or
whisper
ed - hardly surprising, since it's
exactly the same unit as you'll find on the
XQ series. On either side, a matching pair
of long thr
ow bass drivers with ultra-low
distortion motors for low frequency
response that's as lucid as it is gutsy - and
thanks to KEF's Acoustic Compliance
