KEF Audio Loudspeaker Portable Speaker User Manual

As the world’s first serious small speakers, the original Coda was
a real breakthrough in acoustic design, summed up by one
reviewer as ‘little short of miraculous’.
Now, Coda comes of age. It’s still about audiophile quality sound
at an affordable price - only more so.More technology,with KEF’s
large, musically voiced metal dome tweeter. High order
crossovers fine tuned for flawless transitions. More bass,
with state-of-the-art long-throw LF drivers with pole pieces in
copper to reduce distortion even further - and on Coda 90,
a unique side-firing subwoofer.
More design ingenuity - the drivers are mounted in a swoopy one
piece cast aluminium chassis, anchored by tie rods to the back of
the high density cabinet. All models are magnetically shielded and
come with bi-wire terminals as standard.They’re more beautiful
too,with hand picked real wood veneers in Maple or Black.
Competition - what competition?
Coda 80
Like the rest of the range, the Coda 80 two-way bass reflex centre channel
features KEF’s superb new 25mm (1”) metal dome tweeter,flanked by a pair of
powerful 100mm (4”) bass/midrange drivers.
Smooth,warm and natural sounding,it creates the
main focus of the sound image, pinpointing
on-screen dialogue with tremendous clarity.
Coda 70
The direct successor to the legendary Coda 7 - one of the most
successful speakers ever made - the new Coda 70 is a compact
two-way port reflex design with exceptional power handling for
its size. For the first time ever at this price level,the new 130mm
(5

”) long-throw bass/midrange driver features a high-tech neodymium
motor system - and combined with a 25mm (1”) metal dome tweeter and
computer-optimised high order crossovers,the result is a rounded and intensely
satisfying audio experience. If you want musical response and total realism from
a bookshelf speaker without breaking the bank, nothing else even comes close.
Coda 90
The new Coda floorstander combines excellent dynamics with massive
bass extension.The performance figures (125 Watts power handling with
91dB sensitivity) tell only part of the story - the sound is what counts.
What you get is a rich,spacious and intricate soundscape, with an even,
smooth response right across the frequency range - and whether in a
hi-fi or home theatre set-up,the side-firing subwoofer adds real depth and
weight to the image you hear.Schubert or Santana,Spielberg or Scorsese,
the effect is just stunning.
