Everything about KEF’s flagship loudspeaker is designed to make what you hear sound totally real. As the finest expression of all the latest KEF design breakthroughs, the sound quality, bandwidth and dynamics of these formidably accomplished floorstanders are second to none. Their technological sophistication makes the loudspeakers themselves seem to disappear: all you experience is the pure sensation of hearing the original sound source. The critics agree with Stereophile naming the 207/2 it’s 2008 Product of the Year!
The KEF Uni-Q and three KEF designed ultra-low distortion bass drivers deliver the entire frequency range as a coherent, articulate sonic picture. The 207/2 uses two low-bass units and a dedicated midbass for maximum articulation and freedom from intermodulation distortion. The Reference Series crossovers are computer modelled to optimise driver integration and response accuracy, and then fine-tuned by ear to ensure naturalness and a musically rewarding listening experience.
Precision engineered to eliminate every unwanted vibration, the cabinets are works of art in themselves. Massive internal bracing tailors the volume of each internal enclosure to the exact parameters of its drive unit. Extensive mechanical and acoustic damping, together with independent driver loading and KEF’s decoupling techniques, creates inert enclosures that eradicate any vestigial panel resonance, standing waves, stray reflections or box colorations.
