KEF Q1 Meta Bookshelf Speakers (Pair), Satin White

The Q1 Meta is a compact and powerful 2-way bookshelf speaker that offers impressive performance without compromising on sound quality. Despite its small footprint, it delivers a rich and immersive listening experience, making it a great option for both audiophiles and casual music enthusiasts. Part of KEF’s latest Q Series, the Q1 Meta incorporates cutting-edge technology, making it an excellent choice for those building their first HiFi sound system.

At the core of the Q1 Meta is KEF’s 12th-generation Uni-Q driver array, a signature innovation that ensures exceptional clarity and a broad, immersive soundstage. This advanced driver design allows both the high and mid frequencies to emanate from a single point, resulting in a more cohesive and accurate sound. Whether you’re listening to intricate vocals or dynamic orchestral compositions, the Uni-Q driver brings every detail to life.

Another key feature of the Q1 Meta is the integration of Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™). Developed in partnership with the Acoustic Metamaterials Group, MAT™ helps to reduce distortion by absorbing sound from the rear of the tweeter. This results in a cleaner, more natural sound, free from the typical colorations found in traditional speaker designs, ensuring a more faithful reproduction of the original recording.

Designed for flexibility, the Q1 Meta is perfect for smaller rooms or as part of a larger HiFi setup. Its sleek, modern design, available in Satin Black, Satin White, and Walnut finishes, makes it a stylish addition to any living space. For those looking for a compact speaker that offers both exceptional performance and value, the Q1 Meta is the ideal choice to begin your HiFi journey.
