This impressive power combined with ultra-low levels of distortion enables the A15 to play at high volume levels for extended periods without sounding harsh or strained.

KEF LS50 Meta
Great loudspeakers disappear, leaving just the music. LS50 Meta is such a loudspeaker. The incredibly immersive sound means you lose yourself in your favourite music. Savouring every nuance as layer upon layer of instrumentation is delivered with exceptional acoustic accuracy anywhere in the room.
Designed for performance
LS50 Meta may look sensational, but as a high-performance loudspeaker every aspect of its design is a case of form following function. From the precision modelled curved baffle to the solid, reinforced cabinet, every inch of LS50 Meta has been designed to perform.
Metamaterial Absorption Technology
A truly revolutionary tool in the KEF acoustic armoury, Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT) is a highly complex maze-like structure that absorbs 99% of the unwanted sound from the rear of the driver, eliminating the resulting distortion and thereby providing the most accurate, immersive sound possible.
Every spot is the sweet spot
LS50 Meta features the latest 12th generation Uni-Q driver. Using advanced simulation and analysis tools, KEF’s engineers developed the 12th generation Uni-Q driver with MAT. This new driver array delivers reduced coloration, less distortion and a sound that is more transparent and life-like than previously possible, all dispersed evenly throughout the room.
Curved for performance
LS50 Meta’s low-diffraction, curved baffle is precision modelled around the Uni-Q driver array. Its smooth curved surfaces help radiate sound out across the baffle without any interference from hard edges, which cause diffraction. The result is cleaner, more precise sound.
LS50 Meta are available in a choice of 4 stylish colours including carbon black, titanium grey, mineral white and royal blue.
Package includes a Free 2m pair of pre-terminated Chord C-screenX speaker cables (see below)
