If you want even deeper bass, the Q7 Meta can advantageously be combined with one of KEF's MIE subwoofers. With a sensitivity of 87 dB, the speaker performs best with a powerful amplifier that can deliver the necessary current for optimal performance.

KEF – 60 years of innovation in hi-fi

With more than six decades of experience, KEF is globally known for its groundbreaking audio technology and uncompromising approach to hi-fi sound. KEF's engineers and designers have created some of the most iconic speakers on the market, and the Q7 Meta is no exception. It benefits from the latest research and technology, including experience drawn from their flagship models, ensuring a sound experience of absolute world-class quality.

Revolutionary Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™)

At the heart of the Q7 Meta lies the innovative Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™). This advanced technology uses a complex labyrinth structure to effectively absorb 99% of the unwanted sound from the rear of the tweeter. By functioning as an acoustic black hole, MAT™ eliminates distortion, resulting in cleaner and more natural sound reproduction. It represents a giant step forward in audio technology and lets you experience the music exactly as the artist intended.

12th Generation Uni-Q Driver Array – Harmonious and precise soundstage

The Q7 Meta is equipped with the latest 12th Generation Uni-Q driver array with MAT™. By placing the tweeter at the center of the midrange unit, a point source is created that ensures uniform and detailed sound dispersion throughout the room. This innovative design is the result of decades of dedicated research and advanced simulation tools, delivering an incredibly clear and precise listening experience no matter where you are in the listening room.

Newly developed drivers for deeper and more precise bass

To deliver powerful and precise bass, the Q7 Meta has been upgraded to a 3-way design in which the frequency ranges are separated for optimal performance. The newly developed bass drivers have a hybrid structure with a shallow, concave aluminum surface on top of a paper cone. This provides a rigid and lightweight construction that moves like a piston for better bass response and speed. Together with a 3D-optimized surround geometry, this achieves far more agile and controlled bass reproduction - even at really high volume levels.

Shadow Flare – improved clarity and detail

Inspired by KEF's most exclusive models, the Q7 Meta is equipped with Shadow Flare technology. The precision-designed surface functions as an extension of the Uni-Q's waveguide and reduces unwanted diffraction from the cabinet edges. This allows KEF to eliminate the acoustic disturbances found in traditional speakers, resulting in a marked improvement in clarity and detail. This makes it possible to hear even the finest nuances in the music - from delicate cymbal strikes to complex overtones in a piano.

Superior build quality and elegant design

KEF Q7 Meta is not only a delight for the ears, but also for the eyes. With a modern and minimalist design, along with a luxurious satin finish in Satin Black, Satin White, and Walnut, the speaker fits perfectly into any interior. The carefully selected materials and solid construction ensure not only outstanding sound quality, but also a speaker built to last for many years. The included color-matched grilles protect the drivers and complete the elegant appearance with a seamless and clean style.
