Quick guidance

The CI200QR is a smart choice if you want a larger KEF in-ceiling speaker with wide coverage, clean aesthetics, and enough flexibility for both everyday listening and more premium multi-room installs. This speaker is sold individually, so for stereo or multi-room setups you will usually want two or more. If you want help planning the right quantity or matching amplifier, contact us.

1. Is this one speaker or a pair?
   This is a single speaker. For stereo in one room, you’ll typically order two.
   
2. Will it work with my AV receiver or multi-room amp?
   Yes. It’s a standard passive in-ceiling speaker and works with most receivers and multi-room amps. Match amp power to room size and listening level.
   
3. What should I confirm before cutting the ceiling?
   Check the cutout size, mounting depth, and joist clearance. Also confirm there’s no wiring, plumbing, or ductwork in that ceiling bay.
