Slim profile, enormous soundstage
Conveniently proportioned for space challenged applications, the KIN IC8 Slim 8” in ceiling speaker defies its lean proportions with Totem’s classic enormous imaging and enveloping soundstage.
The ceramic tweeters and carbon fiber woofers react like they were designed for each other. And they were. Designed far beyond established standards, KIN IC Slim delivers the authentic Totem experience of sound holography and musical involvement. They also seamlessly intermesh with other Totem speakers, both traditional and architectural, for cohesive, enveloping multichannel system configurations.

KIN IC diffuse sound in an enormously wide, expansive manner comparable to a flood light and illuminate a room with Totem’s holographic sound whereas most others function like a focused, narrow spotlight, creating small acoustic “hot spots”. The dispersion is almost twice that of competitive speakers, so it takes fewer Totem speakers to thoroughly fill a room, and listeners enjoy the same sound whether seated or standing.
This series of 8 in-wall, in-ceiling, and angled in ceiling speakers have a mounting depth that is 25% shallower than comparable KIN IC models. The remarkable shallowness ensures KIN IC Slim can fit wherever sound is required.
The pure polymer impregnated carbon weave is very stiff so it maintains its perfect shape through punishing bass output. It is also incredibly light so it reacts instantaneously. Coupled to a high compliance rubber suspension, the cone motion is controlled for the best possible transient response and clarity. The overall result is thunderous, fast, tight bass.
An aluminum dome receives a ceramic coating to greatly improve the stiffness and damping characteristics over traditional metal domes. This procedure moves the natural resonance out to 25kHz, well past our hearing ability, for the clearest, distortion-free sound. The faceplate is pivotable to allow the directional high frequencies to be aimed at the listening area.
