Engineered with KEF's innovative Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™), the Q11 Meta minimises unwanted high-frequency distortion by absorbing 99% of rearward sound, resulting in pure, natural audio. Paired with the advanced 12th-generation Uni-Q driver array, the speaker ensures seamless integration of high and midrange frequencies, delivering a smooth, room-filling sound with exceptional precision. Whether for music or home theatre, the Q11 Meta offers immersive, crystal-clear audio performance.
12th-Generation Uni-Q Driver Array for Even Sound Dispersion
At the core of the Q11 Meta is KEF’s 12th-generation Uni-Q driver array, a breakthrough in sound distribution. By positioning the tweeter at the centre of the midrange cone, this design promotes uniform sound dispersion throughout the room, ensuring listeners experience high-quality audio from any position. This arrangement eliminates phase issues typically found in separate drivers, providing cohesive sound integration between the highs and mids. The result is a seamless soundstage with detailed separation of vocals and instruments, making the Q11 Meta ideal for everything from casual listening to detailed audio analysis. Whether you're in the centre of the room or sitting off to the side, the sound remains consistent and immersive.
Cutting-Edge Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™)
Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™) is a groundbreaking feature in the Q11 Meta, engineered to capture 99% of unwanted high-frequency sound emitted from the rear of the driver. The intricate maze-like structure of MAT™ absorbs specific frequencies, acting as an acoustic black hole to eliminate distortion. This ensures that only pure, uncoloured sound reaches your ears. MAT™ allows the Q11 Meta to deliver an exceptionally clean and natural listening experience, making it perfect for both music and movie enthusiasts. By maintaining the integrity of the sound, MAT™ enables the Q11 Meta to reproduce audio exactly as intended by the artist or filmmaker, enhancing your overall enjoyment of every track or scene.
Deep, Controlled Bass Performance
The Q11 Meta offers deep, precise bass through its hybrid aluminium cone low-frequency drivers. Combining the stiffness of aluminium with the responsiveness of paper cones, these drivers move with piston-like accuracy, producing tight, impactful bass without distortion, even at high volumes. Whether you're enjoying the deep thrum of a bass guitar or the explosive power of an action movie, the bass remains powerful and controlled. The Q11 Meta’s three-way design ensures that bass frequencies are balanced perfectly with the midrange and highs, offering a complete and immersive audio experience. Additionally, the bass reflex port, engineered with computational fluid dynamics, reduces turbulence and unwanted noise, refining the low-frequency output for optimal performance.
