I don’t have yet Meet a few KEF speakers that I didn’t like. The preference of the brand, rigid and musical bass, a warm and smooth midrange and effortless height extension, holds wireless models such as the LS50 (9/10, Wired recommends) and LSX (9/10, Wired recommends) and the wired r3 meta (9/10, Wired recommends) under my favorites on the market. These trustworthy sound characteristics are available again in the new Q Concerto Meta.
Together with a large sound, KEF’s Q series aims to give them more for their money, which in the case of the concert of a premium of drivers. You don’t often see three-ways Bookshelf speaker At this price, but the concert delivers the goods in an efficient configuration. You will receive a strong woofer, a midfield driver at the top, and in the middle, the concentric tweeters of KEF, who used some of the best of the brand, including high falutin R3.
The concert immediately reminded of the R3, of its design aesthetics, to support KEF’s absorption technology in order to remove unwanted cabinet frequencies. The similarities end up there; The concert’s sound cannot approach the high heights of the R3, while its facade with vinyl-by-wrapped can feel more budget than the kef fans could expect. Nevertheless, this is a great package for the money that offers competitive sound with a focus on exemplary tone balance and strong bass.
For naked
I was positively dizzy to give away a sparkled couple from Kef’s latest bookshelves, but my excitement was alleviated when I solved the concert from her foam houses. The vinyl cabinets (available in black, white and walnut) look clean and relatively sharp, but most of the speakers that I tested in their class, and even a step below do better. Compared to the Posh Piano Gloss of the Ultra Evolution of SVS (9/10, Wired recommends) or the Focal wasted NO1 Funky leather and Woodgrain panels, the concert has a better bargain mood. Fasting the magnetic grills of the simple Jane pushes them further towards the box radio.

Fair, I think that this is targeted corner cuts to invest more in hardware, and the concert certainly has it where it counts. Your triple pack driver per side includes a 6.5-inch hybrid aluminum cone woofer, a 4-inch aluminum cone crane driver and a 105-inch corporate wave conductor, which is also the 12th generation of the 12th Gens KEF tragting Uni-Q design (Set the “Q” in Q series).
The drivers cross at 450 Hz in the bass and 2.9 kHz at the altitude, whereby a stressed frequency response from 48 Hz to 20 kHz (more on this later). Behind the drivers is Kefs Metacaterial absorption technology (MAT)which claims to remove “99% of the unwanted frequencies”. It is cool to see the technology that has spread into accessible models in the brand’s top hi-fi speakers. Apart from most undesirable frequencies, probably come from your listening room, so you still get tips from ours Audiophile Gear Guide How Acoustic plateswhich are both effective and relatively affordable.
The concert is quite large for bookshelf spokesman, which are 16.3 inches tall, 8.3 inches wide and 12.4 inches deep and weigh over £ 20. You would like to secure a solid couple that is suitable for their considerable footprint. (KEF will be happy to sell you a $ 700 pairs developed for the R3.)
