Packed with technology derived from the Reference Series,
it features KEF’s new generation Uni-Q
array and ‘tangerine’
waveguide: a stunningly natural-sounding elliptical dome 19mm
(0.75in.) tweeter perfectly time-aligned with the surrounding
midrange/bass cone to disperse the sound far more evenly
across the listening area than is possible with conventional
speakers. Power handling and dynamics are exceptional, and
the curved side panels of the reflex-ported cabinet are
contoured to eliminate any distortion from internal resonances.
What you experience is a gloriously intricate sound image – pure,
clean and true, even when played loud. Whether you prefer
string quartets, arias, sax solos or drum and bass, its musicality
shines through – and with film or game soundtracks, it has the
power to keep you on the edge of your seat. A speaker that’s
big in everything but size.

its vocal clarity.

Originally developed for the BBC
,
the LS3/5a is such a legendary product that it has taken
30 years for a loudspeaker to attain similar midrange accuracy – that speaker is the new XQ10.
