“Sit anywhere" Uni-Q Sound
At the heart of the evolved Q Series is the Uni-Q driver array. KEF\'s signature innovation places the tweeter in the acoustic center of the midrange cone, bringing the acoustic ideal of a single point source closer than ever to realisation. The result is a more detailed, more accurate three-dimensional sound image, which is dispersed more evenly throughout the room than is possible with a conventional speaker. Uni-Q\'s ultra-wide dispersion is further enhanced by KEF\'s \'tangerine\' waveguide over the tweeter dome.
Uni-Q sound taken to the next level
The closed box midrange cabinet design reduces the load on the Uni-Q midrange cone, increasing clarity and detail while delivering cleaner, punchier bass.
With the addition of the Damped tweeter loading tube providing a gentle termination of sound produced from the back of the tweeter, lower treble performance is improved dramatically and a new low-distortion inductor on the crossover provides cleaner bass response.
Redesigned Bass Drivers
Low-frequency (LF) drivers now have a larger roll surround, along with a new spider suspension to produce cleaner bass at high volumes. A new cone structure improves midrange clarity, and an enhanced Auxiliary Bass Radiators (ABRs) with a new surround and rear suspension delivers better controlled and more impressive bass.

Floorstanders Q950 is the flagship model of the Q Series range, featuring the KEF signature Uni-Q driver array paired with 200mm (8 inch) long-throw bass driver and matching ABRs. With the latest enhancement in acoustics and design, Q950 brings high resolution sound with extraordinary depth and exceptional clarity. Priced as a Pair speaker.

| The body of the largest floorstanding speaker in the series has been manufactured from solid MDF panels and is extremely resistant to any kind of intrinsic resonance. As is the case for all other models, the baffle of the Monitor Supreme 2002 has been visually offset from the rest of the housing and is a feature that defines the design of this Magnat speaker.
The speaker, which is available in two high quality wood finishes, is equipped with two 200 mm bass drivers and one 170 mm midrange driver, which offer a particularly high level of dynamics in the bass segment and good precision over the entire frequency range. The coated 25 mm fabric dome with its newly developed tweeter flange also ensures significantly enhanced dispersion properties.

Room-filling sound without a room-filling speaker cabinet. Slimmer than ever before, the 684 S2 offers an amazing combination of floorstander power, audio performance and unbeatable value.
Switching to 5-inch bass/midrange drivers from the previous 6.5-inch cones, means the 684 S2 is now significantly slimmer than its predecessor, with simultaneously improved audio performance, thanks to Bowers & Wilkins innovation. The two Kevlar cone drivers benefit from smaller voice coils to increase sensitivity.
The 5-inch drivers now also feature Anti-Resonance Plug dustcaps, technology taken from our high-end PM1 speakers, that improve pistonic movement inside the voice coil. This helps to deliver amazingly distortion-free midrange performance, all in a smaller space.
As well as slimmer, improved driver performance, the 684 S2 also features a Decoupled Double Dome tweeter. Double dome technology, brought across from the CM10, increases tweeter rigidity for a more precise sound, while the tweeter sits in a gel-filled cavity, decoupled from the surrounding cabinet - which removes resonances and vibrations, for a more natural, spacious sound.
