KEF Q60

 Why "Q"

KEF's Uni-Q two-way coincident-source drive unit is incorporated into all three "Q" series models. This unique drive unit combines both tweeter and bass/midrange units into one single chasis. This radical KEF development allows the sound from both units to reach the listener's ears at the same time, bringing readily audible benefits in terms of transparency, image stability and more natural sound reproduction.Uni-Q speakers are highly versatile in use. Being less affected by differing room acoustics, they will operate well in a wide range of placements and listening positions. Furthermore, an advanced and innovative design feature, unique to KEF ensures that all three Q-Series models share quite exceptionally low levels of cabinet colouration, even at high volumes.

 KEF Q60

Fast, well controlled bass performance with accurate, detailed, midrange and the capability to play at realistic levels with modest power requirements sums up the remarkable Q60. Designed for stand mounting 400-450 mm (15' - 18') high, a 200 mm (8') Uni-Q bass-midrange unit, with 25 mm (1') NIB magnet tweeter centrally placed, is loaded by a 20 litre reflex enclosure, 18 mm (3/4') thick. Careful bass alignment makes the Q60 tolerant of positioning, with the ability to recreate the life-like three-dimensional qualities of well recorded music in almost any environment.
