KEF R3 Meta Speakers - Pure Sound. Perfect Balance.

The KEF R3 Meta bookshelf speakers bring the groundbreaking technology of KEF’s Reference Series into a compact, elegant form. Designed for audiophiles who demand both precision and musicality, the R3 Meta delivers an exceptional three-way performance, rarely found in bookshelf or stand-mount designs.

At the core is KEF’s 12th-generation Uni-Q® driver array with Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™) — a revolutionary innovation that absorbs 99% of unwanted sound from the rear of the tweeter, resulting in astonishing clarity and detail. The dedicated 6.5-inch hybrid aluminium bass driver ensures deep, tight, and controlled low frequencies, while the decoupled cabinet design minimises resonance for a cleaner, purer sound.

The R3 Meta delivers a wide, immersive soundstage and stunning imaging. Its sleek, minimalist design is available in a range of premium finishes, making it a striking addition to any space.

Package includes a Free 2m pair of pre-terminated Chord ClearwayX speaker cables worth £208 (see below)
