People who know sound,know KEF.
It’s a name that commands such respect because we’ve never
been a ‘me too’ manufacturer.Eve r since the early days of hi-fi,
our approach has been driven by a passionate belief in the power
of new materials, new technologies and design ingenuity to
heighten the enjoyment of recorded sound.
This is as true today as it was back in ’61,when KEF was founded
by Raymond Cooke, which is why KEF speakers have ranked
among the finest in the world in every decade since.
In that time, KEF has pioneered many landmark innovations.
New diaphragm materials. Neoprene damping. The use of
computer modelling in research and quality control.
Digital testing to unprecedented tolerances.Total system design
methods. Conjugate load network techniques. And arguably
the greatest breakthrough of all: the Uni-Q array,
based on technology originally developed for the NASA space
programme and protected by world wide patents. No other
manufacturer has done more to advance the principles of
loudspeaker engineering, and none is better placed to exploit the
potential of the latest digital formats.
Separating out the midrange and high frequency drivers
into their own pods has long been a KEF tradition dating
all the way back to 1977 with the worlds first speaker
to do this, the Model 105.This technology lives on today in the
Model 207 flagship.
