The R8 Meta can function as a rear speaker with its built-in wall mounting capability, or be placed on top of another speaker to produce Dolby Atmos sound by reflecting sound from the ceiling. It features a 12th generation Uni-Q® system with MAT technology for precise sound direction, resulting in genuine three-dimensional sound reproduction.
The R series is designed to be acoustically exceptional. Every element of the design has been finely tuned to provide more detail and deeper insight into the sound, recreating the excitement of listening to an original musical performance.
With the innovative Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT), the R series reveals a new sense of music that is worth enjoying.
MAT Technology
The Metamaterial Absorption Technology - MAT absorbs 99% of unwanted sound from the rear of the driver, achieving a more natural and clearer sound.
Uni-Q Technology
KEF's most widely used technology provides uniform sound to everyone in front of a KEF speaker.
Special Microfiber Grilles
The R series performs equally well with or without grilles, featuring magnetic attachments that offer secure placement and a clean look.
