Everything is pitch-perfect and the sound quality is crisp, so every note and nuance can be felt and heard in high resolution. That is the exhilarating feeling you get when you plug into a KEF audio device.
“Music is a very personal experience. We have customers who want to have their favorites playing to get them up in the morning and by their side as they go to sleep at night. That is why we have brought the KEF speakers into the country. We want to offer a fuller enjoyment of sound with KEF. We want to touch the hearts of Filipino people through good sound quality of their favorite music,” explains Charlene Cobankiat Tiu, managing director of Cobys Gear and Gadget Concept Store.
Founded in 1961 by Raymond Cooke, KEF is a UK-originated brand that produces high performance sound of audio accessories that are designed to offer the best experience in Hi-Fi quality. The obsessive drive to produce the best sound reproduction possible is what sets KEF apart. It’s why it was founded over 50 years ago and are likewise engineered by audio and aesthetics experts to fit into today’s listening lifestyle.
Party anywhere
KEF developed its multi media line and one of the most popular products is the KEF Muo, a sleek portable wireless speaker that offers unmatched sound quality that transcends the acoustic limitations of more conventional products which sacrifice bass extension and high-frequency dispersion for volume capacity. This compromise leads to poor listening quality as it makes lower frequencies sound thin and vague, leaving a tinny directional treble response. This is addressed by the patented Uni-Q Point technology, resulting in a full-bodied and stunningly clear sound.
The size and shape are perfect for music-lovers on the go, for listening to relaxing tunes at the beach or turning a barbecue at the patio into an exuberant dance party. This is made possible with the device’s three versatile configurations for mono, stereo and dual-connect party mode for surround sound in larger spaces. The dual-connect mode allows listeners the full benefit of the music you are playing as it replicates the full-range response in each speaker. The state-of-the-art Uni-Q driver combines the KEF standards of sound reproduction with the convenience of streaming full bandwidth music wirelessly via its aptX Bluetooth technology. To fit modern design aesthetics, the speakers come in five cool colors for a fashionable vibe: blue, gold, gunmetal, orange and silver.
Leading industrial designer Ross Lovegrove was involved in designing the Muo, to develop robust molded internal enclosure to house the innovative speakers and its high-performance digital-to-analogue converter and other internal components. Lovegrove was likewise involved in developing another high-performance KEF product, the iconic Muon.
Compact surround sound
The award-winning KEF EGG Wireless Digital Music System is another impressive innovation in sound. It functions as a complete “plug-and-play” system with a built-in amp and Digital-to-Analogue converter that lets you enjoy your music in the same high quality that it was recorded. The speakers offer versatility of source, as it can be used to stream music anywhere at home – from TV sound with the optical connection or as a desktop music system.
For those who are serious about sound, they can opt for the KEF X300A Wireless, which allows for the precision and emotional intensity of true hi-fi from your desktop computer, laptop, or mobile gadget with its Airplay or DLNA technology. Here, KEF uses its 50 years of experience in creating a magical musical experience to ensure accurate, distortion-free sound reproduction that minimizes speaker hum and electromagnetic interference even at extreme volumes.
