iQ10
For smaller rooms or where space is at a premium, the new iQ10 proves that size isn’t everything. With the sensational new 130mm (5.25in) Uni-Q coincident driver array in a reflex-ported cabinet, the calibre of its acoustic performance is out of all proportion to its modest dimensions. Transitions between the natural-sounding high frequencies, refreshingly open midrange and hefty extended bass are impeccably fluent.
As satellite speakers in a 5.1 system, they’re beguilingly descriptive and realistic, creating an engrossingly intricate three-dimensional soundscape that adds real depth to the viewing experience. Musical, efficient and transparent, iQ10 is a minor miracle of audio engineering that gives you the listening pleasures of KEF’s latest technology at a gratifyingly modest price.
Aluminium dome tweeter with ‘tangerine’ waveguide
The unique ‘tangerine’ waveguide delivers a smoother, clearer high frequency response with an even wider dispersion as well as providing an excellent protection from straying fingers.
Uni-Q®
KEF’s patented Uni-Q driver configuration is what makes the Q Series sound noticeably better than conventional speakers in normal rooms.
The new Uni-Q array in the iQ has been further refined, with a sophisticated new 19mm (0.75in.) elliptical dome tweeter, improved acoustic geometry and ‘tangerine’ waveguide for even more realistic vocals and even smoother, louder and clearer high frequency response.
Enclosures
Inspired by the Reference Series the fully curved enclosures of the iconic Q Series minimise distortion by eliminating internal standing waves. Laminated MDF construction and internal bracing make the cabinets acoustically inert and reduce cabinet colouration. A new internal labyrinth damping system in the floorstanding models eliminate colouration effects from vertical standing waves.
LF Drivers
The new Q Series feature the latest lightweight dual composite LF cones with tall profile rubber surrounds for longer cone throw resulting in increased LF extension and greater power handling. Rigid die cast aluminium chassis house ultra-low distortion motors incorporating Faraday rings to iron out harmonic distortion.
