  • Tweeter

    Refined tweeter gap damper tames resonances for improved detail.

  • Shadow Flare

    Feature designed for The Reference. Reduces harmful cabinet diffraction, allowing the 12th generation Uni-Q with MAT to work to its potential.

  • Performance

    Powerful drivers can easily cause the cabinet walls to make noise of their own

  • Suggestion

    A trio of floorstanding speakers and a bookshelf speaker reproduce high-fidelity stereo sound for your favourite music irrespective of the dimensions of the listening space. Each of them will allow you to discover depth and detail in your music you never knew existed.

    End game!

    The KEF R3 Meta in white, paired with my Denon X3800H, has completely elevated my listening experience. These speakers are in a different league compared to anything I’ve owned before. The detail retrieval, imaging, and balance are simply exceptional. The Metamaterial Absorption Technology makes a real difference—there’s a noticeable improvement in clarity, especially in the upper mids and highs. The bass is tight and controlled, yet still impactful, and the overall tonal balance is beautifully neutral. Stereo imaging is razor-sharp. Instruments and vocals are placed precisely in the soundstage, creating a truly immersive experience whether I’m watching movies or listening to music. They also handle dynamic shifts effortlessly without ever sounding harsh or fatigued. The white finish is stunning—modern, minimalist, and high-end in appearance. Paired with the X3800H, these speakers are revealing and powerful without needing external amplification. If you’re serious about audio and want true audiophile performance from bookshelf speakers, the R3 Meta is worth every penny.

    Beautiful speakers

    Beautiful speakers. Excellent finished. Sound clear, need a good amplifier to show up. Good for small or medium room.

R3 Meta redefines bookshelf speaker’s performance. Sharing the same drivers as the range-topping R11 Meta, the R3 Meta is a true three-way design. It has a 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with MAT and a powerful 6.5” hybrid aluminum bass driver that pushes performance to the extreme.

705 S3 is our ultimate 700 Series bookshelf speaker, a no-holds-barred celebration of excellence able to highlight all the subtle nuances in your music that other speakers miss. Its Carbon Dome tweeter is housed in a redesigned Solid Body Tweeter-on-Top enclosure used in 800 Series Diamond products. That joins a subtly curved baffle endowed with a ‘pod’ housing for its Continuum Cone bass/midrange driver, ensuring that you hear less of the speaker’s cabinet, and more of the music you love.
