    Nice center channel

    Beautiful clean soundbar appearance. Great for under a television. Not sure the sound from this is as crisp as from the Q350s (which are cheaper) but it certainly projects the typical center vocals across a wide soundstage and has consistent sound with the other KEF speakers in the setup. A bit overpriced given it requires an external wire harness (provided) and KEF didn’t re-engineer it as a true center. Powered by a Denon AVR X4700H.

    KEF Compact Soundbar

    Great sound out of a compact box that works well with the JBL Home Stage Series without their bulky center channel speaker.

    Killer center

    Bought this as center speaker paired with bw shelf speakers and sub. Even as only centered left right it is really crisp with depth total range Great finish and size very sleek. Only wish the converter to center was just banana plugs instead of combining wires
