Why KEF Subwoofers?

At its most basic a subwoofer needs to be able to produce deep and loud bass. KEF subwoofers are anything but basic. Each subwoofer is full of exceptional engineering and innovation in the form of cutting-edge technologies such as Uni-Core® and KEF’s Music Integrity Engine, and are designed to deliver depth and accuracy in equal measures.

KEF subwoofers are also versatile, whether you want them for music, movies, or a mixture of both, for small spaces and large listening rooms, the comprehensive line-up has a high-performance subwoofer to suit.

KEF’s flagship twin 9-inch driver force cancelling subwoofer is hand built in the UK. A truly extraordinary subwoofer, Reference 8b delivers exceptional bass precision and control with zero distortion.

These class-leading subwoofers use technology derived from the Reference and R Series to deliver accuracy and incredible depth. The twin-driver force cancelling designs deliver performance beyond their room-friendly dimensions and boast 1000W (2x500W) RMS amplification and great connectivity. KF92 is the perfect balance of discreet size and impressive performance, while KC62 is when size matters.

KEF’s stylish trio of Kube subwoofers offer exceptional performance no matter what system you partner them with or where you decide to place them. A choice of three sizes and great connectivity ensures optimum performance for your set up.

Easy to conceal thanks to its uniquely slim profile, the T2 delivers fast, uniformly dispersed and devastatingly accurate bass and features a 250 Watts Class D amp and 10inch driver.

Don’t let the size fool you

Deep and powerful bass is no longer solely the domain of big-shouldered, massive subwoofers. KC62 is David to their Goliath; an ultra-compact subwoofer capable of delivering accurate, deep bass for an immersive music, movie and gaming experience at complete odds with its modest dimensions. And just as David beat Goliath, so KC62’s performance renders these subwoofer behemoths obsolete.

Uni-Core® Technology

Craving an immersive entertainment experience but put off by bulky subwoofers? KC62’s patented Uni-Core® technology revolutionises the traditional force cancelling design to deliver deep accurate bass from an ultra-compact cabinet. Combining both drivers into a single magnet system allows cabinet size to be reduced by over a third, while also increasing excursion to unlock exceptional output and depth.

Redefines size versus performance

KEF’s innovative, patent-pending Uni-Core® technology redefines the physical space high-performance speakers and subwoofers required to deliver deep and accurate bass. Through exceptional engineering and creativity, KEF’s engineers have revolutionised the traditional force cancelling arrangement with a Uni-Core® design that delivers deeper bass from ultra-compact cabinets.

Maximises bass, minimises space

The innovative Uni-Core® system overcomes the performance compromises when placing force cancelling drivers into a smaller cabinet. Uni-Core® combines both back-to-back drivers into a single motor system. The overlapping, concentrically arranged voice coils allows for far more driver excursion than in other force cancelling design, unlocking more output and depth from less space.

Turn up the Power

KC62’s twin drivers are powered by 1,000W RMS (2 x 500W) of specially designed Class D amplification, providing exceptional levels of control and the ability to deliver sudden bursts of power when required, for example when enjoying your favourite high-octane action sequence.

Same performance, everywhere

KC62 slips effortlessly into any environment or listening room, with the five pre-set Room Placement Equalisation feature ensuring the same performance no matter where you decide to place it; in free space, next to the wall, in a corner, nestled within a cabinet or using the dedicated apartment mode.

Well Connected

KC62’s connection options allow it to be used with almost any audio system, with KEF SmartConnect and speaker level inputs eliminating any connection issues. Line output with High Pass Filter (HPF) allows for exceptional fine-tuned integration, and KC62 is also compatible with the KW1 for simple wireless compatibility.

Design meets substance

Crafted from extruded aluminium, KC62’s curved cabinet perfectly blends form and function, providing strength and beauty. Small enough to blend into any décor, the Carbon Black, Mineral White and Titanium Grey finishes also make KC62 an exceptionally attractive statement.

Accurate, deep bass with speed and power

Accuracy is a KEF hallmark, whether in full-range loudspeakers or in subwoofers dedicated to delivering sensational bass. An array of innovative technologies come together to ensure KC62’s bass accuracy, including the P-Flex surround for precise driver movement and Smart Distortion Control Technology that reduces distortion, while performance is maximised via KEF’s Music Integrity Engine.

P-Flex (aka Origami Surround)

The P-Flex driver surround has a unique pleated design inspired by Origami, the Japanese art of paper folding, engineered to better resist the acoustic pressure in the cabinet to allow the driver to move more precisely compared to traditional surround designs. The result is deeper bass extension and a more accurate and detailed bass reproduction.
