KEF Q8 Meta Dolby Atmos Enabled Speakers

Dolby Atmos surround speaker

The Q8 Meta Dolby Atmos surround speaker can be mounted on the wall using the integrated wall mount to function as a high-fidelity surround or rear speaker. It can also be positioned on top of another speaker to deliver Dolby Atmos sound to the room without requiring custom installation. The 5.25" 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with MAT™ delivers immersive sound for any home theatre.

KEF Q Series With Meta

The Answer is always in the Q

The new Q Series with MAT™ always has the right sound solution for you

Equipped with innovative technology from KEF's premium ranges, the Q Series now features Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™) and the 12th generation Uni-Q driver array. This ensures exceptional sound quality, making it an ideal choice for both stereo and home theatre setups. The comprehensive line-up caters for any room size, budget or application with models including floorstanding, bookshelf, centre channels and on-wall HiFi speakers. With the versatility to seamlessly mix and match, the Q Series can adapt to evolving audio needs. Colour-matched grilles are included with the speakers.

Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™)

The crucial advancement in the Q Series is the integration of Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™). MAT is a highly complex maze-like structure that absorbs 99% of the unwanted noise from the rear of the driver, eliminating the resulting distortion and providing a purer, more natural sound.

Uni-Q®

A 12th generation Uni-Q® driver array with MAT™ is found in all eight models of the Q Series. Uni-Q® acts as a single point source to disperse sound more evenly through the room, allowing everybody, wherever they are in the room, to enjoy the same natural, detailed sound for an immersive entertainment experience.

Speaker Performance

3-way speaker

The evolved Q Series has been upgraded from a 2.5-way to a 3-way system design which ensures precise separation of high, mid, and low frequencies. This updated configuration significantly improves detail and clarity, bringing your music and movies to life. *

Deep and clean bass

The Q Series features a hybrid bass driver design that provides stiffness to achieve a piston-like movement for better bass punch and speed. Combined with a port modelled using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), this results in precise and agile bass management even at high output levels. *

Refined crossover

A critical component of the Q series is the refined crossover, which ensures seamless integration of all speaker parts. More than 1,000 specific measurements are taken for each speaker model, allowing precise signal path and optimisation for best possible performance.

Shadow flare

Derived from the flagship models, Shadow Flare is a carefully profiled transition that extends the waveguide effect of Uni-Q. This design reduces unwanted cabinet diffraction, allowing the treble to escape naturally without reaching the cabinet edges. The result is vastly improved fine detail reproduction. *

*Applicable to Q11 Meta, Q7 Meta, Q Concerto Meta, Q6 Meta.

Design

Detail by Design

The Q Series speakers feature a contemporary minimalist design with a satin finish that offers a premium, subtle glow. Available in Satin Black, Satin White, and Walnut finishes, they are designed to blend effortlessly into any interior.

Magnetic Grilles

Colour-matched grilles are included with the speakers. The magnetic fixing provides a secure and precise fit, in keeping with the clean and seamless styling of the Q Series.
