KEF MODEL3 Home Audio Speakers combine KEF’s proven Uni-Q ‘point source’ driver array from the award-winning KHT separates system with a unique new application of NXT flat panel technology, delivering detailed 3D surround effect from just two speakers positioned at the front of the room, with no need for speakers and cables behind the listener.

Like all great ideas, the concept is simple. The vertical NXT flat panels behind the main arrays create virtual rear effects speakers, while the Uni-Q drivers create a perfect‘phantom’ centre speaker right in the middle of the screen – just like the movies. The effect is certainly impressive, with pin-sharp dialogue and vocals appearing to come from the performers’ mouths as if they were physically there. The same is true for rear effects – with your eyes closed, you’d swear the sound was coming from behind you. The acoustic illusion of all three virtual speakers is accentuated by the Uni-Q driver configuration, which spreads the sound image over a much larger area than a conventional speaker. 

  • neweggKEF Uni-QOriginally developed for KEF’s legendary audiophile loudspeakers, the Uni-Q driver uses aerospace materials to engineer a high performance tweeter that’s small enough to mount in the centre of the bass/midrange cone so that both act as a single point source. As this configuration disperses the sound over a much wider area, it has huge benefits for home theatre: speaker positioning is far more flexible, and everyone in the room enjoys the same clear, realistic 3D soundscape. It also creates a perfect ‘centre speaker’ image from the left and right channels in a way that conventional speakers simply can’t.
  • neweggNXT flat panel technologyThe rear effects signal is directed to NXT panels mounted vertically behind the main drivers. KEF’s innovation is to use freestanding (rather than wall-mounted) NXT panels, allowing the sound to reflect off the side walls to the back of the room. Like the dipole rear speakers of high-end home theatre systems, this generates the wide, diffuse sound-field you need for convincing ambient effects.
  • neweggCast aluminum enclosuresThe beauty of die cast aluminum as a speaker enclosure is that it’s acoustically inert. So you don’t get cabinet vibrations interfering with the purity of the sound; and because there’s no conventional box behind the drive units, there are no distorting internal resonances either.
