The slim and elegant R5 Meta is compact, but it is more than capable of delivering detailed sound and deep, clean bass. It boasts the 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with MAT and two 5.25” hybrid aluminum bass drivers. It can work as a stereo pair or as surround speakers as part of an R Series home theatre system.
- Tweeter: Refined tweeter gap damper tames resonances for improved detail.
- Superior Sound: The Uni-Q driver array has been redesigned to maximise the performance improvements that MAT delivers. The conical waveguide that couples the tweeter dome to the metamaterial absorber has been specially designed for the bespoke driver based on its depth.
- Shadow Flare: A feature designed for The Reference. It reduces harmful cabinet diffraction, allowing 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.

Very bad thing happened
I got the product in a very damaged condition and not up to the standard. It looks very odd to me that this kind of a company send this substandard product to a customer?

Worth It
These are easily the best speakers I've owned. I think they match my listening space perfectly. I've also had ELAC DBR62, Ascend Acoustics Sierra LX, and Wharfedale Lintons. All great speakers but when you find the perfect pair for your room with really good sub integration...WOW! And these don't just sound good. The engineering, quality, and looks are all top notch.
