Product details

The world's first speaker with Meta-Material Technology. The LS50 Meta is a highly precise, emotionally engaging speaker based on revolutionary acoustic technology. This solid, compact speaker has been developed around the 12th generation Uni-Q driver with Metamaterial Absorption Technology and is capable of delivering detailed sound throughout the room.

Highlights at a glance: The LS50 Meta is the world's first speaker with Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT). This technology absorbs 99% of unwanted sound waves coming from the rear of the tweeter, resulting in a purer, more natural sound. The LS50 Meta utilizes KEF's innovative 12th generation Uni-Q driver array.
