Flanked by a pair of 165mm (6.5in.) ultra-low distortion lf drivers (independently loaded to neutralise distortion from internal standing waves) for exceptionally fluid bass response, the individually pair-matched uni-q midrange/hf array floods even the largest space with an intricately detailed sou...

The pairing of an ultra-low distortion bass driver with the latest incarnation of kef’s signature uni-q ‘point source’ array for the middle and upper frequencies, disperses a compellingly rich three- dimensional sound field evenly throughout the listening area. Crossover technology developed from th...

Using aerospace technology to mount the tweeter at the precise acoustic centre of the midrange cone, both act as a single, time- aligned point source that disperses an accurate sound image evenly throughout the room. This has two main benefits: everyone in the room experiences the same accurate 3d e...
