In detail

About the Q11 Meta

Overview

The Q11 Meta is the largest floorstanding speaker in KEF's Q Series. It is a three-way bass reflex design with a 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT) handling the midrange and treble, and three 165 mm (6.5 in.) hybrid aluminium bass drivers.

It can be used as a stereo pair or as the front left and right speakers in a Q Series home theatre system.

Drivers and Technology

12th generation Uni-Q driver array, with the tweeter at the centre of the midrange/bass cone so both radiate from the same point
Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT): a maze-like absorber behind the tweeter that KEF states absorbs 99% of the unwanted sound from the rear of the dome
Crossover developed by KEF from more than 1,000 on- and off-axis measurements per model in its anechoic chamber in Maidstone, UK
Three-way design: the Uni-Q array covers mid and high frequencies while dedicated bass drivers handle the low end
Hybrid bass drivers with a shallow concave aluminium skin over a paper cone
Flared bass port modelled with computational fluid dynamics to reduce turbulence and port noise
Shadow Flare surround around the Uni-Q driver to reduce cabinet edge diffraction
Flexible Decoupling Chassis isolates the midrange motor from the Uni-Q chassis

Placement and Design

Supplied with a plinth and rubber feet; the optional KEF PQ1 Plinth Spike Kit is available separately
Port bungs included
Colour-matched magnetic grilles included
Finishes: Satin Black, Satin White, Walnut
