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.

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.

The LS50 Meta has inherited its distinctive good looks from the original LS50, with its low-diffraction, curved baffle precision modelled around the Uni-Q driver array. The curved front is subtly mirrored by the gently radiused rear panel, while both the port exit and speaker terminals have been elegantly recessed and softened visually. The LS50 Meta’s extremely rigid cabinet is optimised for performance, with smooth curved surfaces that help radiate sound out across the baffle without any interference

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

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?

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.
