These speakers are engineered to deliver high levels of realism when watching movies, playing games, listening to music or simply watching TV, and the speakers push the company’s technology levels to augment its Extreme Home Theatre architectural line of products. Both in-wall loudspeakers feature KEF’s 12th-generation Uni-Q driver array, as well as the Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT). Additionally, they employ optimized bass drivers that are specifically designed for in-wall environments, and aluminum baffles that are designed to minimize vibrations.
