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 aluminium 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.

KEF - R7 Meta Floorstanding Loudspeaker (Each) - White
5.0(6)

The mid-sized floorstanding member of the R Series is as powerful as it is flexible. Its 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with MAT ensures a crystal-clear performance with music and movies alike, while its two 6.5” hybrid aluminum bass drivers deliver accurate, dynamic bass. At the heart of the R Series is Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT), a revolutionary innovation that takes the performance of the 12th generation Uni-Q driver array to another level in terms of accuracy and clarity.

5.0(7)

Featuring the same 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with MAT as the R Series stereo models for perfect tonal matching, and two powerful 6.5’’ hybrid aluminum bass drivers, the R6 Meta delivers an immersive listening experience that brings movies vividly to life. It is versatile and can be used in an LCR (Left-Centre-Right) configuration. Metamaterial absorbs 99% of unwanted sound for pure and natural sound.

    Great sound

    Up graded from KEF KS50 META to these R5s. Excellent sound that fills in the midrange and are steadily improving as they brake in.

    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?

    The most amazing speakers.

    These speakers sound absolutely fantastic. I originally purchased the Q1 bookshelf speakers, but after owning them for about a month I decided I needed a pair of full range speakers. The KEF R5 Meta were exactly what I was looking for. The bass is amazing, the mids and vocals are super clear, and the highs are not too bright. I would highly recommend these speakers to anyone.
