Description

Description Freakuence!
These little rascals let your ears enjoy clear and detailed sound, with a midrange so open you can almost touch the musicians. The highs are sparkling without sharpness, and the lows are tight and controlled. Place them properly and you get a wide and deep soundstage. They are not the easiest to drive, so make sure you have a powerful amplifier. For true low-end reproduction, a subwoofer is not a luxury.
Retail price: 1399.00
General description
The KEF LS50 Meta is a compact speaker known for its accurate sound reproduction and detailed sound. Thanks to the Uni-Q driver array, where the tweeter is placed in the center of the woofer, a wide and consistent sound image is created.

A notable feature is the use of Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT). This technology absorbs unwanted sound waves at the back of the driver, resulting in a cleaner and more transparent sound reproduction.

The LS50 Meta is available in a variety of finishes, including Carbon Black, Titanium Grey, Mineral White and Royal Blue Special Edition.

Although bass response is impressive for a speaker of this size, adding a subwoofer can further enhance the lowest frequencies.

Background information
The KEF LS50 Meta is designed as a high-end monitor model using KEF’s Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT), which dampens unwanted resonances. The Uni-Q driver (12th generation) provides a wide stereo image. The cabinet is made of MDF with curved walls and a damping layer for minimal coloration. Developed under the direction of designer Jack Oclee-Brown.
Brand history
KEF was founded in 1961 in Maidstone, Kent, by former BBC ringmaster Raymond Cooke. The name is derived from Kent Engineering & Foundry, the site on which its first headquarters was located. In its early years, the company developed products using synthetic materials and mathematical models. KEF introduced the Reference concept in 1973, where each pair of systems was electronically matched. In the 1980s, KEF used digital technologies to optimize production. In 1988, the first computer-aided acoustic measurement system was used. Uni-Q driver technology was introduced in 1988 and has since been used in several models. KEF has had collaborations with outside designers, including Ross Lovegrove. In 2011, the Blade, the first model based on the single point source concept, was released. KEF has offices worldwide, including Hong Kong, Germany, France, Japan and the US. Its headquarters and acoustic research department are in Maidstone.

CD

De Compact Disc (CD) kwam zoals de meeste uitvindingen niet uit de lucht vallen. Na de uitvinding van de laser in 1958 werd in 1961 het eerste octrooi voor optisch leesbare schijven ingediend. In 1972 werden de eerste digitale videoplaten geïntroduceerd. Na een flop van Philips kwam de fabrikant in 1979 samen met Sony met de eerste cd, wat erop stond weten wij niet maar in 1982 kwam de eerste cd voor de markt uit, het was het album Visitors van ABBA. In dit jaar kwam de eerste speler beschikbaar en zo begon de verdrijving van de lp uit de markt. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen. Heb je cd’s, geniet er vooral nog eens van, ze hebben immers geen oneindige levensduur.

The Compact Disc (CD), like most inventions, did not appear out of thin air. After the invention of the laser in 1958, the first patent for optically readable disks was filed in 1961. The first digital video records were introduced in 1972. After a flop by Philips, the manufacturer, together with Sony, released the first CD in 1979. We do not know what it contained, but in 1982 the first CD was released for the market, it was the album Visitors by ABBA. In this year the first player became available and so began the elimination of the LP from the market. Many have literally thrown their LPs in the trash… we still see some visitors being disappointed when they tell us this. Velen hebben hun lp’s letterlijk bij het vuil gezet… sommige bezoekers zien wij nog steeds balen als ze dit vertellen.
