KEF: Completely Unique Luxury

When you're ready to fill a room with high-fidelity sound, turn to KEF. The brand was founded in 1961 in the United Kingdom with its first-ever K1—since then, their breakthroughs have pushed the envelope of what music can sound like. Some of their early moves include the use of synthetic materials in their sound equipment. Now, their high-powered technology is heard around the world, with their speakers broadcasting in homes, music studios and everywhere in between.

Why Buy KEF Speakers?

If you're not sure why KEF speakers are so widely lauded, know that it's all about their unique construction. The luxury brand kicks every Bluetooth speaker to the curb along with many of their luxury competitors thanks to powerful internal engineering. Each KEF bookshelf speaker and floor standing model moves sound out differently than other models thanks to specialist construction within. When it comes to the basics, you'll need one thing: a pair of them. And what truly sets them apart from the pack is their specialist Uni-Q driver.

The Uni-Q Driver

The Uni-Q driver is built differently than drivers and tweeters found in classic models. Here, a tweeter is embedded directly in the midrange driver's center. That special construction creates a single point that all audio pushes outward from, whether you're listening to bass-heavy hip-hop, acoustic country music or watching live television. From here, noise is able to disperse easily throughout the room for a completely balanced soundscape. That means there's no "sweet spot", no need to tug equipment around to try and find exactly where things sound the best. Things sound the best everywhere with a little help from KEF.

Which Speaker Should I Buy?

If you're just starting to build your sonic space and aren't sure where to start, you may not know which gear to pick out at first. KEF makes a broad array of equipment, from high-powered floor standing models to bookshelf versions and beyond. With the cultural shift toward keeping AV equipment as hidden as possible, the brand makes equipment like in-ceiling and in-wall versions, as well as wireless models. That's a lot of options to choose from—at the end of the day, it's easy to eliminate many based on whether you want to see your noisemakers or not. Classic black, white and even colorful versions will be some of the perfect picks for creating a striking listening space, especially when paired with a turntable and other AV equipment. KEF's collection of sonic equipment started out with speakers, and these experts have continued to put a focus on their specialty ever since. That being said, the company now makes accessories to optimize any listening experience. Pair your gear with a perfectly tuned amplifier or other accessories to ensure you start out with the best sonic equipment possible.
