KEF Q8 Meta speakers
Passive speakers for surround sound home cinema with Dolby Atmos support
KEF Q8 Meta are 2-way Hi-Fi speakers designed for surround sound and Dolby Atmos, allowing you to easily expand your home cinema without complex installation. With the integrated bracket, you can mount the speakers on the wall and use them as surround or rear speakers, or place them on another speaker to create Dolby Atmos height effects by reflecting sound off the ceiling. A 12th generation 5.25" Uni-Q driver with a 25mm aluminium dome tweeter delivers a detailed, natural, and evenly dispersed sound. KEF Q8 Meta speakers also feature MAT technology, which absorbs up to 99% of unwanted sound from the rear of the tweeter, resulting in greater clarity and less distortion. A precisely tuned crossover, developed from over 1000 measurements in an anechoic chamber, ensures accurate signal distribution between the drivers for an optimal final performance. KEF Q8 Meta offer a frequency range of 96Hz to 20kHz, a sensitivity of 86dB, a maximum acoustic output of 109dB, and are suitable for amplifiers with a power output of 10 to 150W. By combining them with other Q series speakers and KEF subwoofers, you can easily create a surround sound home cinema tailored to your room size and requirements, while the colour-matched magnetic grille protects the drivers and maintains the clean look of the entire setup.

KEF Q8 Meta deliver clean sound without unwanted resonance
KEF Q8 Meta speakers use advanced Metamaterial Absorption Technology, which absorbs up to 99% of the unwanted sound radiated from the rear of the tweeter. The specially designed structure acts as an acoustic labyrinth where individual channels absorb unwanted frequencies and limit their negative impact on the final performance. This means the speakers offer you a cleaner, more natural sound with more accurate detail reproduction and lower distortion.
Speaker with Uni-Q driver for more immersive surround sound
KEF Q8 Meta use a 12th generation Uni-Q driver, which places a 25mm tweeter in the acoustic centre of the 5.25" mid-bass driver, acting as a single point source of sound. This design allows for a more even dispersion of sound into the space, creating a wide, cohesive soundstage. Thanks to Uni-Q technology, you can enjoy a clean and detailed performance not only in the ideal listening position but also in other spots around the room.
Flexible Dolby Atmos speaker for your home cinema
By combining the KEF Q8 Meta with other Q series speakers and KEF subwoofers, you can create a surround sound setup that is perfectly tailored to your room size and requirements. The versatile design allows you to mount the speakers on the wall for use as a surround or rear channel, or place them on top of another speaker to create Dolby Atmos height effects by reflecting sound off the ceiling. With the KEF Q8 Meta, you can easily build a home cinema with impressive surround sound.
Precisely tuned crossover for optimal sound
KEF Q8 Meta speakers utilise a precisely engineered crossover, developed based on over 1000 measurements in an anechoic chamber. The crossover ensures accurate distribution of the audio signal between the individual drivers, so that each one operates within its optimal frequency range. Thanks to this careful tuning, the speaker offers you a balanced and precise sound with a natural blend between the individual frequency bands.
Magnetic grille with an elegant design
The colour-matched magnetic grille protects the drivers from dust and accidental damage while maintaining the elegant look of the entire setup. Thanks to the magnetic attachment, you can easily attach or remove the grille without any tools, allowing you to customise the appearance of your KEF Q8 Meta speakers to suit your preferences.
System type
An active speaker is one that has a built-in amplifier, so all you need to do is connect it to a sound source, either wired or wirelessly, to listen.Passive speakers are more commonly referred to as speaker systems. They are intended more for high-quality, loud, and dynamic listening in the comfort of your home and are not suitable for frequent transport. The main advantage of passive speakers is the ability to connect various sources through a separate amplifier.
Number of channels
The number of channels in speaker systems and home cinemas indicates the number of independent audio signals (speakers) and subwoofers, most commonly in the X.Y format (e.g., 2.0, 5.1). It specifies how many audio tracks are reproduced simultaneously, which determines the spatial experience and bass depth of the system, from basic stereo sound (2.0) to surround sound (5.1 and above).Specifications
