Description

"The KEF LS50 Meta speakers have earned recognition as the leader in their class, securing the 'What Hi-Fi?' 2023 award."

Enhancing an Icon

Initially launched in 2011, the original KEF LS50 speakers garnered instant acclaim. The newly released KEF LS50 Meta builds upon this legacy by incorporating advanced technology for unparalleled sound quality.

Experience Uncompromised Sound with MAT

In collaboration with the Acoustic Metamaterials Group, the LS50 Meta introduces a groundbreaking technology known as MAT (Metamaterial Absorption Technology). This innovative material absorbs a remarkable 99% of unwanted sound from the tweeter's rear, reducing distortion and delivering a purer, more natural sound.

Studio-Quality Sound with Legendary Uni-Q Drivers

KEF's illustrious history includes the creation of some of the most precise monitor speakers. Widely used in recording studios globally, KEF speakers, along with other brands featuring KEF drive units, have played a pivotal role in producing classic mixes. Now in its 12th generation, the Uni-Q driver array centers the redesigned tweeter within the woofer, resulting in a more harmonious sound. The magnesium/aluminium woofer, known for its responsiveness and fidelity, faithfully reproduces the music.

Musically Engaging

Contrary to the clinical sound of some monitor speakers, the KEF LS50 Meta offers an engaging listening experience. The ultra-sturdy cabinet, featuring a gracefully curved compound front baffle, in tandem with the tweeter's 'tangerine' wave-guide, disperses sound expansively throughout the room. This immersive quality ensures that every listening position in the room offers a captivating experience.

Powerful and Lifelike Bass

Despite their compact size, the LS50 Meta speakers deliver impressive bass impact. The Z-Flex surrounds enable the woofers to cover an extended range, resulting in deep and potent bass. More than just being deep, the bass maintains exceptional control and lifelike quality. The rear port's computer-aided design fosters smooth airflow, reducing turbulence and enhancing the bass's speed and precision.

A Timeless Design

Much like the enduring sound quality, the design of the LS50 Meta possesses timeless appeal. Its clean and sleek aesthetic is both striking and visually pleasing. You can select from Carbon Black, Mineral White, Titanium Grey, or Royal Blue to match your preferred style
