KEF R6 Meta Flagship three-way centre channel speaker

Shadow Flare for improved clarity

Designed to allow the 12th-generation Uni-Q drivers to work to their optimum, Shadow Flare is a precision-designed surface which extends the waveguide. This means it no longer has a line of sight to the cabinet edges, creating a 'shadow region' where diffraction is highest. The result is an incredibly clear high-frequency sweet spot for more detailed listening.

Powerful, deep lows

Built with a two-part structure, the R6 Meta delivers the most articulate and powerful bass frequencies. A shallow concave aluminium skin is mounted on top of a paper cone with a unique geometry to effectively reduce resonances for a clean, pristine and deep low-end response. A uniform magnetic field is created with the onboard driver system to reduce harmonic distortion.

Flexible Decoupled Chassis

First used on the Blade and The Reference loudspeakers, the chassis design is employed to ensure the Uni-Q drivers dramatically reduce the colouration of the sound by eliminating cabinet vibrations. By decoupling the midrange driver from the chassis, the vibrations are dissipated and transferred into heat, effectively eliminating any unwanted sound.
