Improving an iconLaunched in 2011, the original KEF LS50 was a smash-hit from day one. The new KEF LS50 Meta takes all the award-winning ingredients of the original and introduces new technology for sensational sound quality.Hear the sound, just as it should be, with MATDeveloped in conjunction with Acoustic Metamaterials Group, the LS50 Meta makes use of an exciting new technology called MAT (Metamaterial Absorption Technology). The revolutionary material absorbs 99% of unwanted sound from the rear of the tweeter, for lower distortion and a much purer, more natural sound.Legendary Uni-Q drive units deliver studio quality soundKEFs history includes making some of the most precise-sounding monitor speakers. Used in recording studios around the world, KEF-branded speakers and other brands using KEF drive units are behind so many classic mixes. Now in its 12th generation, the Uni-Q driver array places the revised tweeter within the middle of the woofer, creating a more cohesive sound. The magnesium/ aluminium woofer is light and rigid making it fast to respond and entirely faithful to the music playing.Foot-tappingly musicalAlthough some monitor speakers can sound clinical to listen to, this is not the case with the KEF LS50 Meta. The super-rigid cabinet features a curved compound front baffle. Combined with the tweeters tangerine wave-guide, this helps spread the sound far out into your room making listening to these speakers an enveloping experience, wherever youre sitting in the room.Punchy, lifelike bassFor such small speakers, the LS50 Metas hit hard. Thanks to Z-Flex surrounds, the woofers move across an extended range, giving deep, powerful bass. More important than just being deep, the bass is extremely well controlled and lifelike. The computer-aided design of the rear port promotes flow and reduces turbulence meaning the bass sounds fast and accurate.Brand KEFColour Carbon BlackWeight (KG) 7.8Freq Response (Hz) 79 28,000Speaker Dimensions WxDxH (mm) 200 x 281 x 302Sensitivity (dB) 85Impedance (ohms) 8Power Rating (Watts) 100Speaker Enclosure Type Bass Reflexbi-amped design with separate woofer and tweeter amplifiers for greater headroom and lower distortionUni-Q Driver Array technology makes your entire room sound like the “sweet spot”innovative Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT) absorbs high-frequency vibrations to eliminate distortion5-1/4″ aluminum cone wooferoamplifier power: 280 watts (Class D)1” vented aluminum dome tweeteroamplifier power: 100 watts (Class AB)connection between left and right speakers: wired (allows 24-bit/192kHz audio) or wireless (allows 24-bit/96kHz audio)frequency response: 45-28,000 Hz (3 dB)peak SPL: 108 dBMDF enclosure with elegant curved front bafflebass-reflex cabinet with patented offset, flexible port for reduced midrange colorationWireless features:Bluetooth 4.2 with aptX for high-quality audio streaming performancebuilt-in dual-band Wi-Fi for audio streaming from your networkcompatible streaming platforms include Apple AirPlay 2, Google Chromecast and Roon (firmware update required)uPnP for playing music files from your local networkKEF Connect app offers comprehensive remote control via your Apple or AndroidTM deviceocompatible with popular music streaming apps, including Spotify (via Spotify Connect), Tidal, Amazon Music, Qobuz, and Deezeroprecise digital signal processing controls allow optimal room integrationConnections (located on primary speaker):HDMI eARC (accepts signals up to 24-bit/192kHz) for improved sound from a compatible TVToslink optical digital input (24-bit/96kHz)coaxial digital input (24-bit/192kHz)RJ45 Ethernet port for network connection (24-bit/384kHz)analog 3.5mm auxiliary inputUSB Type A input (for service only)mono RCA subwoofer outputsupported file formats (all inputs): MP3, M4A, AAC, FLAC, WAV, AIFF, ALAC, WMA, LPCM and Ogg Vorbisalso supports DSD files up to 12.3 MHz and MQA files via network connectionDimensions and warranty:7-15/16″W x 12″H x 12-1/4″Dweight: 44.31 lbs.
