Why this product

Key Benefits

  • Driver layout

    KEF lists a two-way bass reflex design with a 25 mm tweeter and a 130 mm bass/midrange driver.

  • Uni-Q driver array

    The KEF Q1 Meta uses KEF's Uni-Q driver array, which KEF describes as acting as a single point source that disperses sound more evenly.

  • Metamaterial Absorption Technology

    KEF fits Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT) behind the tweeter and states that it absorbs 99% of the unwanted sound from the rear of the driver.

  • Frequency response

    KEF lists 47 Hz to 20 kHz (-6 dB) and 51 Hz to 20 kHz (±3 dB), with 86 dB (2.83 V, 1 m) sensitivity.

  • Amplifier matching

    KEF recommends 10 to 150 W per speaker at 4 Ω nominal impedance.

Use cases

Applications

  • Stereo and multichannel audio

    The KEF Q1 Meta is a passive speaker, so it needs an external amplifier; KEF recommends 10 to 150 W at 4 Ω.

  • Rooms planned around a separate amplifier

    With 86 dB sensitivity and a 4 Ω rating, pair it with an amplifier or AV receiver that is rated for that load.

  • Finish options

    CorporateAV.ae lists the KEF Q1 Meta in Black, Walnut and White.
