PMC ci45: Custom Install Passive Speaker

The PMC ci45 is a larger, more powerful custom installation loudspeaker than the ci30, designed for in-wall, in-ceiling, or on-wall mounting in medium-sized surround and immersive audio rooms. Featuring the company’s renowned ATL™ bass loading technology, the ci45 delivers the natural, realistic sound PMC is famous for.

Dolby Atmos Applications

The ci45 is a custom install loudspeaker, perfect for use as surround or height channels in a medium-to-large Dolby Atmos® mix room, or as a main monitor in smaller rooms where space is a priority. Its powerful 6.5" LT™ bass driver ensures exceptional fidelity and deep bass response for all immersive formats.

ATL™ and Laminair™ Technology

The source of PMC’s legendary natural, realistic sound is the Advanced Transmission Line (ATL™) bass technology. This system uses bass energy in a more intelligent and efficient way than conventional ported or sealed box designs, delivering:

• Greater detail and more natural sound.
• A full, rich sound at any volume level.
• Deeper bass from a smaller cabinet.

The Laminair™ aerodynamic vent enhances the ATL further by reducing turbulence and drag at the transmission line exit. This high-performance engineering ensures:

• Faster, cleaner bass and higher definition sound throughout.
• Elimination of air noise, leaving only the music.
• Higher maximum output and bass with supreme timing and dynamics.

Installation Flexibility

The ci45, along with the other ci models (excluding the ci140 and ci140sub), is designed for versatile mounting applications thanks to the proprietary Qikfire™ fittings and optional accessories.

In-Wall Mounting

• Qikfire™ System: The speaker is fitted with the patented Qikfire™ spring-loaded mounting system. This makes installation "installer-friendly," allowing the loudspeaker to be fixed or removed with a simple twist of a screwdriver.

On-Wall Mounting

• Mounting Bracket: For on-wall applications, a supplied interlocking bracket ensures straightforward installation with precise level adjustment.
• Optional Sleeve: An optional mounting sleeve (sold separately) in white or black may be fitted around the cabinet to conceal the in-wall mounting system, creating an elegant and discrete on-wall loudspeaker solution.
