Uni-Q® Driver Array – The Heart of an Exceptional Sound Experience

KEF's 12th generation Uni-Q® driver is a technological revolution that places the tweeter in the centre of the midrange unit. This creates a wide and consistent soundstage, ensuring that all listeners experience the same high quality, no matter where they sit in the room. This technology also reduces distortion, making the speaker ideal for both music and films. The Uni-Q® driver ensures accurate and detailed reproduction of midrange frequencies, which is essential for a natural and engaging audio experience.

Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT) – Cleaner Sound, Less Interference

MAT is a groundbreaking technology that absorbs 99% of unwanted resonances from the back of the driver. This results in a sound that is free from distortion and unwanted noise, providing a more natural and detailed reproduction of both music and film sound. MAT is a crucial factor in the Reference 4 Meta delivering a sound that is as pure and precise as it can be.

Three-Way Design for Ultimate Precision

The Reference 4 Meta is designed as a three-way speaker, with each unit having its own specific responsibility for treble, midrange and bass. This ensures precise and balanced sound reproduction across the entire frequency spectrum, making the speaker perfect for capturing even the smallest details in your music or film soundtrack. The 4 pcs. 165 mm aluminum bass units deliver a powerful and precise bass that reaches deep into the frequency spectrum, while the midrange and tweeter units ensure a clear and detailed reproduction of high and mid frequencies.

Cabinet Design – Minimal Distortion, Maximum Precision

The hand-built cabinet is constructed with advanced materials and bracing to minimize vibrations and resonances. This ensures that the sound remains clean and precise, without unwanted distortion. The cabinet's elegant design is not only functional, but also a beautiful addition to any room. The solid construction also reduces internal reflections, contributing to more accurate sound reproduction.

Optimized Crossover – Perfect Balance

KEF's specially designed crossover ensures precise and harmonious integration of all frequency ranges. This provides a seamless transition between treble, midrange and bass, resulting in a sound that is both engaging and natural. The crossover is optimised to deliver the best possible balance between the different frequencies, making the Reference 4 Meta a speaker that can handle everything from the deepest bass notes to the most airy highs.
