Product Overview
The Tannoy QCI 3 is a high-performance 3-inch full-range ceiling loudspeaker for installed audio where fidelity and a discreet appearance both matter. Built to the same standards as Tannoy's professional and hi-fi loudspeakers, it delivers natural, detailed sound from a compact, thin-bezel enclosure. Its glass-fibre cone and 40 watt continuous rating make it a strong choice for multi-room audio, retail, and premium background music systems, and its matched sonic signature lets units be combined for stereo, surround, or multi-zone designs.
Product Description

The QCI 3 centers on a 3-inch (85 mm) full-range driver with a glass-fibre cone and high-excursion rubber surround, giving detailed, dynamic full-range performance from a single compact transducer. With a frequency response of 110 Hz to 20 kHz (±3 dB), 84 dB sensitivity, and 40 watt average (160 watt peak) power handling, it provides accurate reproduction across music and speech for premium installed-audio systems. The reflex-loaded UL94 V-0 rated ABS baffle and steel grille with weather-resistant coating support reliable long-term operation, while an extremely thin bezel and integrated single-unit construction keep the install both discreet and fast. A security toggle-clamp mounting system and self-aligning clamp design simplify fitting in finished ceilings, and removable grilles allow custom painting to match the decor. Because every QCI shares the same sonic signature, units can be mixed and matched for stereo, surround, or multi-room audiophile systems. Browse the full Tannoy collection for compatible ceiling loudspeakers and the PMK 3 mounting accessory.
