DEDICATED LOWER MIDRANGE
KEF’s high-end Uni-Q loudspeakers have had the
benefit of a dedicated lower midrange driver since
1989. By allowing each section of the frequency
range to be optimised for its specific role,
this configuration creates much smoother
transitions between the Uni-Q array and the bass
drivers. The integration is so precise that it’s
virtually impossible to hear that the sound is being
generated by a four-way configuration.
The resulting acoustic performance is markedly
superior, with the delicacy and precise imaging of
KEF Uni-Q perfectly complemented by the scale
and impact of a truly assertive bass section.
The 250mm (10in.) lower midrange driver of the
Model 207/2 has a distinctive chrome ‘phase plug’
at its centre to optimise its acoustic response.
A lightweight neodymium magnet assembly allows
the unit to be mechanically decoupled from the
cabinet to minimise the transmission of vibration
and to ensure that its sonic purity matches that of
the bass and Uni-Q sections.
SOUND THINKING
KEF Reference Series cabinets are works of art in
themselves, quite apart from all the high-end
technology they enclose.
It’s not just the sumptuous choice of finishes
(although the silky pale Satin Sycamore and the
sheer depth of the High Gloss Cherry, American
Walnut and Piano Black finishes do admittedly hint
at the uncompromised build quality).
What’s so special about these curved section
cabinets is how they perform – and why.
Precision engineered from beech ply, they’re
designed to eliminate every unwanted vibration
that would otherwise muddy the sound.
Massive internal bracing tailors the volume of each
enclosure to the exact parameters of its drive
unit, and mechanical and acoustic damping ensures
an inert structure that never colours the
inherently natural sound.
With independent driver loading and KEF’s proven
decoupling techniques, these are cabinets that do
nothing to mask the performance of the
components inside.
No panel resonance. No standing waves.
No stray reflections. No box colorations.
Just pure, sweet sound.
