- RMS Power: 80 watts (The maximum amount of continuous power the device is able to handle.)
- Peak Power Handling: 125 watts (The maximum amount of power an electronic device, like a speaker, can handle without damage. This refers to short bursts of power, while root mean square (RMS) power handling indicates the amount of continuous power a device can sustain. Higher levels of distortion can also occur at peak power levels when the device is powered beyond its recommended usage.)
- Impedance: 8 ohms (Describes the resistance of an electric signal throughout the system. Devices with low impedance require less power to deliver optimal signals but are more at risk for damage from overloading. Higher impedance requires more power but is more protected from overload damage.)
- Minimum Frequency Response: 52 hertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The minimum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
- Maximum Frequency Response: 20 kilohertz (Describes the maximum range of frequencies or musical tones a product can reproduce, from very low tones to very high treble tones. The maximum frequency or musical tone the speaker can reproduce. High treble tones have higher frequencies while low tones and deep bass have lower frequencies.)
- Sensitivity: 89 decibels
- High Resolution Audio: true (Hear music the way musicians and sound technicians intended it to be heard. Products that support hi-res audio deliver audio signals with a dynamic range and bandwidth far greater than that of a standard CD so you'll be able to enjoy pure music with outstanding sound quality. The device supports high-resolution audio signals, which more closely resemble the quality of music as it was originally recorded, with more texture and detail than can be heard via typical music streaming services or CDs.)

Wonky upper-mids dip (-9dB around 2.5KHz)
The KEF Ci160MR has a 9dB dip around 2.5kHz. Same deficiency on 2 different pairs from different batches. Perhaps a poorly designed crossover. At least the dip is consistent over variety of listening angles and is not super high Q, so it can be equalized out. Nonetheless, I'd rather have a ceiling speaker with a weird but spatially consistent frequency response than one with a great on-axis response that varies too much off axis. I don't know of a better choice at $300. But go with KEF's higher-tier in-ceiling speakers instead if you can. The oval logo can be simply pulled off the grille for a cleaner look.

Stunning KEF detail
I’m a KEF fan upfront but the startling detail of these in ceiling speakers (f2 for kitchen and 2 for living room) powered by my Sonos Amp surprised me. Usually “in ceiling” speakers suffer from shooting down but these KEF’s really provide great stereo imaging and all around sound! Thanks James in the Magnolia department fir your great advice and I couldn’t be more pleased with the results.
