KEF Audio Uni-Q Portable Speaker User Manual


 
Taste in music and movies is a very
personal thing.
Same with speakers. For some people, the
usual plain box will do; a speaker’s a speaker.
Others want to experience something more
special. More cutting edge. More rewarding.
And that’s who our new XQ Series has been
created for.
By combining patented technologies from two
of our most acclaimed ranges - the radical
new Q Series and the legendary Reference
Series - the XQ concept gives you the best of
both worlds: new KEF Uni-Q
®
‘point source’
arrays for unrivalled off-axis performance, and
Reference Series ‘super audio’
Hypertweeters
TM
for the full bandwidth
response required to fully exploit digital
formats like SACD and DVD-A.Together with
ultra-low distortion bass and audiophile grade
internal components, it’s a combination you
simply can’t find anywhere else at the price.
The look - an evolution of the new Reference
Series aesthetic - is about function, not
fashion. From the chromed steel
Hypertweeter pod to the curves of the
cabinet, everything is calculated to produce a
cleaner, purer sound.
Admittedly, the finish is a bit of an
extravagance.You can specify your XQ system
in either a cool, Natural Maple veneer or one
of four high gloss lacquer finishes: Silver and
Graphite Metallic (to complement AV
equipment), Pearlescent White or Maranello
Red.The aluminium front baffles are anodised
in Silver.
But hey - when the technology inside creates
such beautiful sound, they deserve to look
special.
With all models magnetically shielded and
identically voiced, the XQ Series fills the room
with the kind of breathtaking auditorium
quality 3D soundscape you normally only find
with the world’s most expensive speakers.
Which they’re not. In fact, considering that
they’re packed with high end Reference Series
technology, the XQ range is exceptional value
for money. Hear them, you’ll immediately see
what we mean.
