KEF Say….
Decades of experience and our unbridled passion for music come together in the R Series. Combining innovations from the Reference Series with bespoke technologies the new R Series delivers more detail, deeper insight and greater excitement.
Every element of the new KEF R Series has been precisely engineered to recreate the exhilaration of hearing music for the first time. Because we believe you want to experience that thrill again and again, just as much as we do.
KEF’s quest for music perfection demands constant innovation. This is as true now as it was when KEF was founded in 1961. KEF’s portfolio of acoustic design patents and innovations is unequalled. It leads the way in the use of sophisticated computer modelling techniques, such as finite element analysis and computational fluid dynamics. This drive for perfection is the reason the new KEF R Series features five major technological advances, many of which are derived from and inspired by the class-leading Reference Series.
Innovations cover the whole audio spectrum and the entire loudspeaker, with developments ranging from a new version of the legendary Uni-Q driver to improved cabinet construction and refinements to other acoustically vital elements.
As colouration is removed, clarity improved, and accuracy delivered at new, higher levels, the performance of the R Series is raised to previously unheard levels and your passion for recorded music is re-born.
KEF engineers do not believe in compromise, the R5 floorstander is compact and elegant yet it delivers music and movies with ease. The svelte R5 contains a Uni-Q with 125mm midrange driver and 25mm aluminium dome tweeter for incredible detail while twin 130mm hybrid aluminium bass units manage the bass.
