A compact full range floorstander, the iQ5 is a true three-way speaker. With KEF`s new 130mm (5-1⁄4") long-throw LF driver delivering superbly defined bass, the midrange driver of the 130mm (5-1⁄4") Uni-Q point source array is dedicated to reproducing midrange frequencies with even greater clarity. High order crossovers ensure seamless transitions between each driver, and with Uni-Q`s remarkable off-axis dispersion characteristics, you get a speaker that`s as easy to place as it is rewarding to hear - especially for enjoying the richness and complexity of modern digital formats. Ideal for use with iQ1 and iQ2c in a home theater system, it`s a superbly assertive performer for the modest size of its slender cabinet and outstanding value if you aspire to genuine audiophile standards of sound reproduction.
