Sorry for the tease at the beginning! The launch party was on October 5, 2024. If you missed it, we still have the whole new Q-Meta line available for demo at the store. And we even have some KEF swag left, so just ask anyone when you're in if you are a big KEF fan! We hope to see you soon!
Though am not sure if it was worth it to give up on that depth of field to gain a wider sound stage. I think sound stage width wise was already really good and we also had the depth of field. That one tradeoff is what I am not liking on New Q Meta series. Besides that it is Really good.
Yep 👍 that’ll be a great system! Speakers don’t know what they are playing so good speakers will handle both music and movies very well! We’d love to help get your system together for you when you’re ready!
Is there an option to have metal spikes with these speakers rather than rubber ones? Also do the grills on the Q7 metas cover the entire cabinet? Or do they just come down past the drivers to partially cover the front in the same way the R series do by leaving half of the cabinet from uncovered.
KEF isn't offering metal spikes for the Q-Meta Series at this point, but the rubber feet are a standard sized threaded bolt, so I'm sure that there are spikes available from other places that would fit and work perfectly if you have thick carpet. For the Q7 Meta, the grill does not cover the entire cabinet, it covers from the top edge past the bottom woofer which ends up being about 80% of the face of the speaker.
@@hclandscapes It turns out they have heard the feedback and will be offering an optional spike kit for the Q series soon! If you are interested you can find the pre-order page by looking up "KEF PQ1 Plinth Spike Kit" in any search engine.
@@HiFiBuys Do you know what the thread size and pitch is for the Q-meta series towers? Trying to work out if my IsoAcoustic Gaia IIIs will fit or if they need a different adapter
Either would be a great fit for a room that size! The demo spaces that we have both speakers in are similarly sized - the Q7s are in a 16x19 room and fill it beautifully, and the Q11s are in a 14x16 room and don't overwhelm the space at all (unless you really crank them up of course 😅). If the budget allows for it the Q11s will give you deeper bass extension and great impact from your music and movies. If you are in the Atlanta area, we'd love to demo them side by side for you so that you can experience the difference for yourself and decide if it is worth it for your system. Hope this helps!

I’m looking to buy 4 x Q4’s , Q6 centre for a 5.1 setup using Yamaha A6A av receiver ….are the Q4’s good for both music and movies?

I haven't been able to find that info anywhere so far, but I reached out to KEF for more details. Will report back soon!
yup
Confused between Q7 and Q11..Room size 14×18..Music 70 percent movie 30 percent
