KEF T101 Satellite Speakers W/ Stands

Here we have a pair of slightly unusual Speakers from British manufacturer KEF. Designed to be slim and unobtrusive these “lifestyle” speakers come complete with KEF’s purpose built slim stands. They are in good condition and will be suitably packaged along with manual plus our normal three month warranty.
KEF Say….
With KEF’s new T Series, you get exceptionally slim profile speakers that generate all the intricacy, spaciousness and dynamic range of a high end conventional design.
You’d expect no less from KEF. With some of the finest speakers in the world to our credit, ours is a 50-year success story of innovation that includes unrivalled experience of home theatre: our multi-award winning systems have for years been the standard by which others are judged.
No wonder even the most demanding listeners love the new T Series the first time they hear it – and when you discover the unique technologies crammed into each slender enclosure, you understand why…
As one of the world’s thinnest high performance home theatre systems, the new T Series combines several landmark innovations: a radical new ultra-low profile bass and midrange driver, and a large, fully vented new tweeter. By incorporating both in cabinets only 35mm (just over 1.25in.) deep, the T Series brings you all the
pleasures of true audiophile quality sound in a speaker that perfectly complements the aesthetics of the latest flat screen TVs.
Instead of a cone, the radical new twin-layer bass and midrange unit has a flat diaphragm whose rigidity throughout the frequency range is maintained by very fine stiffening ribs, with the driver as a whole acting as a
stressed member to help eliminate any unwanted resonance from the slim cabinet. The resulting response is as clean, accurate and distortion-free as a quality conventional speaker, with none of the bulk.
In addition to minimising the height of the magnets, we placed the entire suspension outside the magnet system so that it adds nothing to its height. Whether you opt for the standard satellite and centre speakers or the larger models with additional bass/midrange drivers, the result is an exceptionally shallow unit that allows the enclosure to have the same installed depth as current flat screen TVs without compromising acoustic integrity in the slightest. Lush yet well controlled, it’s the kind of performance that brings soundtrack effects to life with a real sense of drama.
The generous size of the sophisticated new 25mm (1in.) vented tweeter specially developed for the T Series allows exceptionally accurate reproduction, especially of the human voice. And silken, effortlessly pure high notes. The clarity is outstanding, even played loud.
KEF’s unique ‘tangerine’ waveguide helps to disperse the sound image evenly throughout the room. The combined effect is remarkable: you find yourself immersed in a dense three-dimensional sound picture that completely engages you with what’s happening on screen.
Everything about the new T Series has been designed from first principles to achieve a sleek, unobtrusive look that matches the styling of modern TVs while still maintaining the high standard of audio fidelity KEF is famous for.
The precision etched logo and chamfered black anodised aluminium side trims hint at the meticulous attention to detail and superb build quality of what’s inside. Ease of use is built in from the start, with KEF’s ingenious Selecta-mount™ system concealed in the optional stand automatically adjusting each speaker’s sound balance according to whether it’s mounted on your wall, desktop or floor.
Whether you opt for the standard satellite and centre channel speakers or the longer models with additional bass and midrange drive unit, you’ll discover a clarity and depth that takes your enjoyment to a completely new level.
Mounted vertically as satellites (whether wall-mounted, on the desk stands supplied or the optional floor stands) or horizontally as a centre channel above or below the TV, the standard T Series speaker features KEF’s new
115mm (4.5in.) ultra-low profile bass and midrange driver paired with the high performance new 25mm (1in.) vented tweeter.
There’s the option of elegantly simple extruded aluminium floor stands styled to match your T Series speakers – and by automatically rebalancing the output for wall or desktop mounting, the Selecta-mount™ system cleverly
concealed in each stand gives you complete freedom of positioning without compromising sound quality.
