Q1 Meta Bookshelf Speaker FAQs

What differentiates the KEF Q1 Meta Bookshelf Speaker from other speakers?

accordion open
The Q1 Meta Bookshelf Speaker stands out due to its cutting-edge Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™), which absorbs 99% of unwanted sound, giving you crystal-clear audio. 

Combined with the Uni-Q Driver Array, it ensures precise sound dispersion, delivering a detailed and immersive listening experience. Its sleek design and premium build also contribute to its superior performance and aesthetic appeal, making it a firm favourite among audiophiles.

Are bookshelf speakers like the Q1 Meta better on stands?

accordion open
When placed directly on furniture, speakers can transfer vibrations, leading to sound distortions. Speaker stands like the SQ1 Floor Stand are designed to minimise these vibrations, resulting in a cleaner, more accurate sound. Stands also position the speakers at the optimal height for a superior sound experience.

Can the Q1 Meta Bookshelf speaker be wall-mounted?

accordion open
The Q1 Meta can be wall-mounted when used in combination with the B2 Wall Bracket. A sturdy bracket is screwed directly onto the rear of the speaker, allowing for an almost flush mounting against the wall. A rubber bar protects both the wall and speaker, whilst ensuring that the optimal speaker position is maintained.
