KEF R3 Meta Bookshelf Speakers - Gloss Black
KEF R3 Meta R3 Meta redefines bookshelf speakers’ performance. Sharing the same drivers as the range-topping R11 Meta, the R3 Meta is a true three-way design. It has a 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with MAT and a powerful 6.5” hybrid aluminium bass driver that pushes performance to new extremes. Since 1961, KEF has strived to reproduce pure sound precisely as it was meant to be heard. Decades of experience in acoustic innovation and the quest for music perfection come together in the R Series to deliver sound with more detail and deeper insight, sound that ignites excitement every time you experience it. The R Series is a direct beneficiary of the technological innovations developed for The Reference, the class-leading series that continually set the benchmark for loudspeakers and sound reproduction. Combining with bespoke technologies, the R Series delivers an exceptional acoustic performance. The revolutionary Metamaterial Absorption Technology1 (MATTM) has been incorporated into the latest iteration of the R Series, and the 12th generation Uni-Q driver array has been refined to maximise the impact of this technological advance and ensure the best possible performance. The result is an exceptional seven-model range of loudspeakers, engineered to deliver with exquisite detail and incredible insight. Whether your taste lies with traditional two-channel HiFi, multi-channel home theatre or both, the R Series reveals levels of detail that must be heard to be believed.

Did a lot of research to make this choice. I have a small-ish space and wanted speakers that were detailed but not cold, bright, or fatiguing. I got what I was looking for - detailed, balanced, really a joy to listen to. Tough speaker to beat in this price range.

Amazing bookshelf speakers. If you like the KEF sound you will love these. Do really well in a small room. The mids and highs are just breathtaking. Might need to add a quality subwoofer, especially for medium to large size rooms.

Excellent speakers at $2,200. Treble is very good, mids are clear and precise. Bass is decent. Imaging it's is strongest attribute. Worth the money. Paired with a sub and a power neutral amp and you will be satisfied.

Some of the best bookshelf speakers I've heard. They are transparent, have a great sound stage and very clean sound. I'm currently running them on a Yamaha AS2100 and they sound great. No harshness, just buttery smooth sound with tight and dynamic bass. If you're using them for home theatre use, a sub would be recommended but for music you can run them as is unless you are a bass head. These are truly a special speaker. KEF has really outdone themselves on their meta line.
Wide soundstage, detailed midrange. Highly recommended , for it's price it is a winner
Gorgeous both in sound and visually. I was not disappointed.
