KEF LS50 Meta Bookshelf Speakers – Pair – White

Description The KEF LS50 Meta represents a groundbreaking leap in high-fidelity audio reproduction. Building on the legacy of the acclaimed LS50, this refined bookshelf speaker integrates cutting-edge Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™) to dramatically reduce unwanted resonances and distortions. With KEF’s signature Uni-Q driver array at its core, the LS50 Meta delivers an exceptionally natural, expansive soundstage that feels far larger than its compact footprint suggests. Every note is reproduced with remarkable clarity, precision, and musicality — from the deepest lows to the most delicate highs. Designed for discerning listeners and audiophiles, the LS50 Meta pairs effortless performance with elegant industrial design, making it a perfect centerpiece for premium stereo systems, home theater setups, and critical listening environments.A revolutionary tool, Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT) is an advanced complex maze-like structure that absorbs 99% of the unwanted sound from the rear of the driver, eliminating the resulting distortion and providing purer, more natural sound.FeaturesMetamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™) – Utilizes an innovative metamaterial with thousands of precisely engineered channels to absorb unwanted sound from the rear of the driver, dramatically reducing distortion and delivering cleaner audio with greater detail.Uni-Q Driver Array – Altitude-matched concentric driver places the tweeter at the heart of the midrange cone, creating a more coherent wavefront and exceptionally smooth dispersion for broad listening sweet spots and pinpoint imaging.High-Performance Driver Components – HF: 25 mm (1 in.) vented aluminium dome with MAT™ and MF/LF: 130 mm (5.25 in.) aluminium cone. Together these drivers achieve balanced tonal accuracy with impactful bass and articulate highs.Wide Frequency Range – Offers deep, controlled bass down to 47 Hz and extended highs up to 45 kHz, ensuring little is lost from your source material.Flexible Amplifier Compatibility – Nominal impedance of 8 Ω and sensitivity of 85 dB make the LS50 Meta suitable for a wide range of amplifiers (recommended 40–100 W), from hi-fi separates to integrated receivers.Designed for Real-World Listening – Low harmonic distortion (Compact Yet Powerful – Despite its bookshelf size, the LS50 Meta produces robust sound pressure up to 106 dB with natural dynamics and a surprisingly spacious soundstage.Elegant Industrial Finish – Premium build quality and refined aesthetic make these speakers as visually compelling as they are sonically impressive.SpecificationsSpecificationDetailsModelLS50 MetaDesignTwo-way bass reflexDrive UnitsUni-Q Driver Array:HF: 25 mm (1 in.) vented aluminium dome with Metamaterial Absorption TechnologyMF/LF: 130 mm (5.25 in.) aluminium coneCrossover Frequency2.1 kHzNominal Impedance8 Ω (minimum 3.5 Ω)Frequency Range47 Hz – 45 kHzTypical In-room Bass Response (-6dB)26 HzFrequency Response (±3dB)79 Hz – 28 kHzHarmonic Distortion (90dB, 1m)Maximum Output106 dBAmplifier Power (Recommended)40 – 100 WSensitivity (2.83V/1m)85 dBWeight*7.8 kg (17.2 lbs.)Dimensions (H × W × D) with Terminal*302 × 200 × 280.5 mm (11.9 × 7.9 × 11.0 in.)T3S9M0E0/00-BKM
