Graceful monitors KEF R100 are based on the branded Uni-Q emitter, patented by the British many times ago. It consists of 13-cm woofer and an-inch dome tweeter. Both drivers are made of aluminum alloy and are able to provide quite wide range of playing. There is the rear bass-reflex for greater feedback, with a help of which the lower limit was successfully extended up to 49 Hz (passport data). Despite of small size, the monitors are quite heavy â€" their mass is almost 7 kg. We will praise the finish too â€" in our variant the bodies literally amaze by carefully selected natural veneer.

First of all, the highest degree of sound detailing at mid frequencies is worth noting? But at the same time I wouldn’t call it excessive. The playback is maximally linear, without audible coloring over the whole operating range. There is no significant failure in bass for the systems of small size â€" lower register is deep enough and energetic. The upper register is clearly drawn, without extra side-tones and uncomfortable accents. The only note â€" for full perception of discants you should install KEF R100 on stands with the height not less than 70 cm. At high level slight signs of signal compression appear, what, however, is natural. Sound scene is really three-dimensional; the localization does not fall even on the flanks.
