Born From Reference

KEF R-Series

The KEF R-series sits between the entry-level KEF Q-series and the class-leading Reference series that has repeatedly set the benchmark for audio reproduction. Benefiting directly from the technological innovation of the Reference, the R-Series combines bespoke design with next-generation technology to produce exceptional acoustic performance.

Exceptional Detail, Always

12th Gen Uni-Q Drivers

KEF’s renowned 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with MAT is found in all seven R-Series models and helps to produce exceptionally detailed and balanced audio. Acting as a single point source, these drivers help to enlarge the sweet spot and disperse sound evenly across your entire room. 

Whether you enjoy traditional two-channel HiFi, multi-channel home cinema or both, the R3 Meta’s will undoubtedly deliver extraordinary levels of detail that will take your breath away.

All Performance, No Distortion

Metamaterial Absorption Technology

A revolutionary tool in KEF’s acoustic armoury, Metamaterial Absorption Technology is a circular maze-like disk that sits at the back of the Uni-Q driver array. Optimised to absorb 99% of the unwanted sound from the rear of the driver, each channel is tuned to a different frequency to absorb a wide bandwidth of sound with extremely high efficiency.

Tight & Controlled

Exceptional Bass

Bass is a key part of KEF’s signature sound and the R3 Meta’s low-frequency drivers have been tailor made with care and precision to ensure these standards remain high. A 6.5” hybrid aluminium bass driver enables a greater driver excursion and produces tight and controlled bass that will undoubtedly impress.  

The drivers’ magnet system also creates a uniform magnetic field, while the suspension helps to deliver a clean and precise sound that is exceptionally deep and agile too.

Perfect for Stereo & Cinema

Next Level Versatility

The R3 Meta is perfect for reproducing stereo sound for your favourite tracks regardless of the dimensions of your listening space. The addition of these bookshelf speakers will take your audio to the next level and help you to discover depth and detail in your music that you never knew existed.

With a choice of matching home cinema models to pair with, the R3 Metas will make your cinematic experience more immersive than ever before too. 

Pleasantly Understated

Acoustically Driven Design

Despite acoustic performance being at the heart of design, KEF has been sure to deliver a visually impressive speaker that integrates with the home both sonically and aesthetically. Available in Gloss Black, White, Walnut and a special edition Indigo Blue colourway, the R3 Metas are designed to be on show.

Dedicated microfibre grilles with 1801 precision-cut holes for each driver also ensure optimum performance whether they’re on or off. 

The Perfect Platform

Optional S3 Floor Stand

The R3 Meta features threaded inserts which enable you to mount your speakers securely on top of the KEF S3 Floor Stands. Boasting integrated cable management and a mass-loadable column to further improve stability. These stands create the perfect platform for optimum performance.
