Features

  • 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.

    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?

    Best speakers I had

    Beautifully made. My significant other approved the white. They sound full and wonderful. They are 4ohm speakers. So, they require a beefy amp

    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.

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 aluminium 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.
