Since 1961, from our UK home, we have created remarkable award-winning speakers. From our ground-breaking Uni-Q technology to our bar-setting LS60 Wireless, KEF exists to fill rooms with music as it was made to be heard, to move souls with truly authentic soundscapes. Now, we're bringing more people with us on our journey to discover the power of great sound.
KEF is named after Kent Engineering and Foundry where our story began. Our founder Raymond Cooke was propelled by a love of music and a refusal to compromise, and he leveraged technology at every turn to ensure KEF’s position at the cutting edge of audio.
A list of breakthroughs spanning more than half a century shores up that promise; a walk to match the talk. Patents and academic papers alike testify to decades of consistent progress, from the early use of synthetic materials to our Reference Series which determines industry standards to this day. KEF’s insistence on excellence is at the heart of a virtuous circle, which attracts the world’s most gifted acoustic engineers to join us in the pursuit of good, better, best.
Now in our seventh decade, we're staying at the forefront of audio excellence.
We're committed to ‘sound before all else’, and have introduced the ground-breaking use of Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT) in speaker design, which was awarded the ‘Innovation of the Year’ by What Hi-Fi? Awards 2020. This is a revolutionary tool in our acoustic armoury. MAT absorbs 99% of the unwanted sound from the rear of the driver. MAT, and the technology that we continue to develop, allows us to design new ranges of revolutionary products including our LS50 Collection and LS60 Wireless, KEF's first active floor-standing speaker released in celebration of our 60th anniversary. It combines all our key technologies with the conveniences of digital, embodying our vision of High-Fidelity sound for the future.
The introduction of Uni-Core technology on our KC62 subwoofer in 2021 created a completely new take on subwoofer designs by redefining the physical space required for high-performance speakers and subwoofers. Our Uni-Core technology combines both drivers into a single motor system, which allows cabinet size to be reduced by over a third, and also increases excursion to unlock exceptional output and depth.

KEF’s mission is to deliver sound with as little intervention as possible; from treble to bass, and everything in between. Listeners should be able to close their eyes and immerse themselves in the sound so deeply that they are transported, in their minds, to the source. We believe that the best sound is natural sound – and that access to it is a right, not a privilege.
Experience is everything, and that’s no overstatement. Combining our obsessions with acoustic authenticity and innovative engineering, we’d like to think that KEF products speak for themselves.
We invite you to close your eyes and be transported. Listen and believe.
