MUON
The MUON is the product of an ambitious design concept by visionary designer Ross Lovegrove. Combining Lovegrove’s design aesthetics with KEF’s finest engineering, this KEF Tower Speaker is fabricated from super-formed aluminum to create a shape that is devoid of sharp edges and extremely stiff.
MUON’s powerful bass drivers and the Un-Q drive unit array which delivers seamless imaging throughout the room, are just two elements that make this KEF tower speaker so superior. MUON’s powerful bass drivers are one element that makes it so superior. But it is also the upper mid-range and treble where some of the key technology lies, the Uni-Q® drive unit array which delivers seamless imaging throughout the room. KEF also uses Acoustic Compliance Enhancement (ACE) technology, this effectively doubling the available volume. MUON’s 6mm thick aluminum shell provides a totally rigid structure that minimizes sound-distorting vibrations. Inside are strengthening braces and a coating of damping compound that makes the whole unit completely inert, even when the speaker is playing loud.
SPECS:
Uni-Q driver array: MF: 1 x 125mm (5in.) Li-Mg-Al /LCP, hybrid cone HF: 1 x 25mm (1in.) vented aluminium dome, featuring KEF’s unique ‘Tangerine Waveguide’

BLADE
The blade is the world’s first Single Apparent Source loudspeaker, now with KEF’s innovative Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT). Giving a bold and striking presence, the Blade pushes the boundaries of what is possible with sound.
- Features Single Apparent Source technology: a unique technology that aims to achieve the acoustic ideal of a point source, where low, mid and high frequencies radiate from one point. It is what makes the Blade incredibly coherent, with noticeably more precise imaging.
- Blade’s four powerful low frequency drivers are mounted back-to-back to cancel out kinetic forces that might otherwise color their output, resulting in cleaner, purer sound, and astonishing low-level resonance.
- Blade’s four powerful vented bass drivers are perfectly integrated with the 12th generation Uni-Q® with MAT™ to deliver clean, immaculately controlled bass. The crossover design in the latest Blade has been enhanced to fine-tune the signal path for maximum clarity.
- Each pair of low frequency drivers is located in its own chamber on the Blades, reducing the potential for interference between the drive units, while also reducing the need for damping, which can impair bass quality.
- Blade is available in a palette of eight finishes, created by blending five cabinet finishes with six Uni-Q® driver cone colours. You can choose from three high-gloss cabinet finishes with corresponding Uni-Q driver cone colours: Arctic White/Champagne, Piano Black/Copper, Piano Black/Grey, and Racing Red/Grey; or from two matte satin cabinet finishes with corresponding Uni-Q driver cone colours: Charcoal Grey/Bronze, Charcoal Grey/Red, Frosted Blue/Bronze, and Frosted Blue/Blue.

Q Series
Q Series takes cutting-edge acoustic technology from ranges including The Reference and Blade to a wider selection of people. Representing exceptional value, Q Series unlocks detail and depth in whatever you choose to listen to.
- The Uni-Q driver array places the tweeter in the centre of the midrange and bass cone, bringing the acoustic ideal of a single point source closer than ever. The result, enhanced by KEF’s ‘tangerine’ waveguide over the tweeter, is a more accurate three-dimensional sound that’s dispersed evenly throughout the room.
- With the addition of the damped tweeter loading tube providing a gentle termination of sound produced from the back of the tweeter, lower treble performance is improved dramatically and a new low-distortion inductor on the crossover provides cleaner bass.
- The Q Series reproduces the nuances of bass instruments with ease. With a larger roll surround and new suspension KEF drivers produce cleaner bass at high volumes. A new cone structure improves midrange clarity and an enhanced Auxiliary Bass Radiator (ABR) with a new
- surround and rear suspension enhances bass quality.
- Putting the Uni-Q driver in its own sealed cabinet reduces the load on the cone and increases clarity and detail while delivering cleaner bass. Midrange clarity is enhanced by driver improvements that mean the DC blocking capacitor to be eliminated from the crossover, allowing a more natural roll-off between drivers.
