Product details

The original LS50 emerged from KEF's willingness to think outside the box and constantly seek new materials, techniques, and technologies, such as computer-aided design and the continuous improvement of KEF's signature Uni-Q driver array. The LS50 Meta has arisen from the same KEF desire for continuous development and is therefore the first speaker to utilize metamaterial absorption technology.

MAT is a highly complex labyrinthine structure where each of the intricate channels efficiently absorbs a specific frequency. Together, the channels act as an acoustic black hole, absorbing 99% of the unwanted sound coming from the back of the tweeter. This eliminates the resulting distortions and achieves a purer, more natural acoustic performance.

Relaxed sounding monitor with warm timbres, silky transparent ultimate resolution across the board and a fantastically wide, precise space. Deep bass at moderate levels, less resolution at higher volumes.

The second generation of the LS50 pursues a consistent optimisation of the entire system - with great acoustic success: more details become audible, and bass power, level stability and three-dimensionality increase. While the LS50 of the first series was already astonishing in how lively, clear and powerful such a compact loudspeaker performs, the Meta goes one better in all respects...
