KEF Q8 Meta Dolby Atmos Surround Speakers (pair)

Metamaterial Absorption Technology

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® - Sit anywhere, hear every detail

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

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, 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.

Redefined 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.
