As the flagship system of the KHT family,
KHT 9000 ACE combines KEF’s latest
performance enhancing innovation with an
uncompromised technical specification to create a
true audiophile quality 3D sound picture: incredi-
bly spacious, intricately detailed and totally
engrossing. The 165 mm (6
1
/2”) Uni-Q driver
array brings out the full emotional depth and tex-
ture of vocals, whether sung, shouted, spoken or
whispered – hardly surprising, since it’s exactly the
same unit as you’ll find on the high end Q and XQ
series. On either side,
a matching pair of long throw bass drivers with

ultra-low distortion motors for low frequency
response that’s as lucid as it is gutsy - and
thanks to KEF’s Acoustic Compliance
Enhancement, what you actually hear is the level
of bass extension that’s only normally obtainable
with much larger speakers.
To achieve a genuinely integrated look that com-
plements modern interiors, you have the option
of wall brackets or infinitely adjustable desk or
floor stands with stand-mounted
terminals connecting to the drivers via an ingen-
ious sliding track system. Depending on the
mounting system chosen, stand or wall bracket,
the connections automatically
select either the free space or wall mount
response setting. The wall filter has a unique form
which corrects for both the fundamental wall
reflection below 200Hz and the second mode at
700Hz allowing unprecedented
tonal accuracy for a wall mounted speaker.
Available separately, and with a choice of com-
patible powered subwoofers, you’re
free to tailor yourself the set-up that best suits
your tastes. If you take your entertainment seri-
ously, it’s a blue chip investment in
pure pleasure.
