KEF R5 Hifi and Home Cinema Speaker Floor Standing Black Gloss

KEF R5 Hifi and Home Cinema Speaker Floor Standing Black Gloss

Product description:

KEF engineers do not believe in compromise, the R5 floorstander is compact and elegant yet it delivers music and movies with ease.
The svelte R5 contains a Uni-Q with 125mm (5in.) midrange driver and 25mm (1 in.) aluminium dome tweeter for incredible detail while twin 130mm (5.25in) hybrid aluminium bass units manage the bass.
Placing the tweeter in the acoustic centre of the midrange cone brings the acoustic ideal of a single point source closer to realisation.
Therefore the new R Series benefits from a new 12th generation of the legendary Uni-Q which has been extensively designed using KEF’s in-house simulation and analysis tools.
Also the KEF’s engineers have been able to dramatically reduce colouration through reducing resonance in the minute gaps between Uni-Q’s separate elements.
Finally, the resulting sound is purer, more precise and makes stereo imaging far more believable delivered by R5.

Key features: 

• Shadow Flare is a carefully profiled transition surface which extends the waveguide effect of Uni-Q.
• The tweeter no longer has line of sight of the cabinet edges, creating a ‘shadow region’ at the points where the potential for diffraction is highest.
• The result is vastly improved fine detail, particularly when it comes to the subtle nuances of plucked strings and other percussive sounds.
• Bass is the very foundation of music; everything is built upon it and maximising bass performance is a vital building block towards pristine sound.
• R Series bass drivers are built using a two-part structure, where a shallow concave aluminium skin sits atop a paper cone.
• Delivers pure piston like movement to deliver punch and speed.
•  Completely redesigned its magnet system to create a more even magnetic field.
• The overall result is more impressive and impactful.
• The new R Series benefits from Constrained layer damping.
• Highly effective at dissipating unwanted vibrations that would otherwise artificially change the sound and music.
