A: undefined
Q: Can i use KEF r3 as wall build-in speaker?
A: No. These have a rear port that must be in open space. Typically these should be at least a foot from the back wall and three feet to side walls.

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.

The R11 Meta is the floorstanding model of the R Series. For a listening experience, its combination of 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with MAT and four 6.5” hybrid aluminum bass drivers allow it to pick out the subtle details of a recording, while also delivering raw power and agility. Metamaterial absorbs 99% of unwanted sound for pure and natural sound.

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

The Definitive Technology Dymension DM40 Slim Tower Speaker features custom aluminum oxide tweeters for explicit voice, four 4.5" midrange woofers with composite polymer cones to produce better midrange detail, and long-throw surrounds for low-end performance. A slim and acoustically tuned cabinet allows the speaker to fit into any room setting and deliver impressive performance. Fully balanced bipolar arrays of DM40 are adjusted to optimize for room placement and hold a rear-array attenuation switch for near-wall placement. Pair this speaker with the DM20 Slim Center Channel Speaker and DM95 on-wall speakers (sold separately) to build an ultimate surround setup and deliver dynamic sound. Be it onscreen movie drama, melodies of your favorite singers, or hearing the sonic details while gaming, this high-performing speaker envelops you from every angle and transports you inside every scene and song. The consistent sound across Definitive Technology gives you the flexibility to mix and match Dymension, Dymension CI, and Mythos speakers, which can be voice-matched to design a complete home system.

I liked these speakers so much I bought another pair for a different room. If you are setting up these speakers be aware that for best performance they need to be wired differently, ie bi amped. It just means two separate inputs and two separate wires running to them. Best Buy was at my house to set up a tv and wired them for me so I just copied the method for the second pair. They fit the bill for us because one set is in the living room and when we are cooking like to occasionally turn up the volume, they will get very loud making that large space seem small.
