With  KEF’s  sophisticated  elliptical  dome  tweeter  mounted  in 

the acoustic centre of the bass/midrange cone, the latest Uni-Q

 

array with ‘tangerine’ waveguide disperses an uncannily accurate 

sound image throughout the room with startling clarity, so you 

have far greater freedom of positioning. 

Bass extension is as generous as it is well defined, thanks to an 

ultra-low-distortion  bass/midrange  driver  in  a  massively  braced 

reflex-ported  enclosure.  Engineering  excellence  is  evident 

throughout, with redesigned magnetics and low mass coils using 

copper-coated aluminium wire in the bass/midrange drivers, and 

tiered crossover technology developed for the Reference Series. 

As  a  result,  what  you  hear  is  exactly  what  the  original  artist 

intended.  Musically  voiced,  articulate  and  as  beautifully  built 

as the rest of the range, the XQ20 comes with the option of 

matching  extruded  aluminium  stands  and  the  choice  of  three 

chic modern finishes.

The  XQ20  boasts  the  same  large  Uni-Q

 

driver  as  the 

flagship  XQ40  in  a  stand  mount  format,  so  its  mid  and 

treble performance envelope is similarly impressive.
