Hear it and be there
If you're into quality home entertainment, you'll know everything
about KEF's KHT2005 system - the orignal won so many awards and
5-star ratings that it would be hard not to.
But even rave reviews can't prepare you for the experience of
listening to the latest version of the compact high performance
5.1 set-up. Those distinctive little cast aluminium enclosures
now house brand new UNI-Q® point source arrays whose sophisticated
new metal dome tweeters combine to deliver vocals that make your
hair stand on end.
As before, audiophile quality components are fitted througout
- and with KEF UNI-Q®, everyone in the room enjoys the same
superbly detailed sound image.
The active subwoofer is also brand new, it's on-board amp driving
a 250mm (10") long-throw bass driver that pumps out a genuine
250 Watts of distortion-free bass. The magnetically shielded satellite
speakers look as good as ever: smooth, minimal and discreet. But
now there are two new finishes to choose from - clean metallic
silver or soft black, to match your other equipment.
And yet, with all these upgrades, KHT 2005.2 costs no more than
the phenomenally succesful system it replaces. If you really care
about sound, it adds up to outstanding value.
The UNI-Q advantage
The great thing about KEF's pattented UNI-Q® driver configuration
is that it disperses sound over a much larger area than conventional
speakers, so that everyone in the room experiences 3D audio effecrts
with the same clarity and accuracy.
This is because KEF uses aerospace materials to make the tweeter
small enough to mount in the acoustic centre of the bass/midrange
cone, creating a single point source that frees you from the usual
restrictive 'sweet spot' and gives you far greater flexibility
in where the speakers can be placed. And the new UNI-Q array in
the KHT 2005.2 os better than ever, with a sophisticated new 19mm
(3/4") elliptical metal dome tweeter for enhanced high frequency
response and even more realistic vocals.
Amazing bass
A powerful, accurate subwoofer adds weight, depth and intensity
to the 3D sound image, and the output of KEF's new sealed box
design has been increased by 10dB at 30Hz. The integral 250 Watt
amplfier drives a down-firing long-throw 250mm (10") bass
unit with exceptionally low distortion characteristics fro clean,
well defined low frequency response throughout the room.
This generously extended bass can be fine-tuned to suit your set-up
and preferences, with a variable slope switch to ensure seamless
intergration with the satellite speakers, a ground lift switch
to prevent hum and switchable cinema/music modes to provide extra
punch for reproducing the full impact of movies special effects.
Better by design
KEF has always been renowned for design intergrity, and the new
KHT 2005.2 is no exception. The parabolic cast aluminium enclosures
of the satellite speakers are computer optimised to minimise internal
resonance and distortion for a purer, cleaner sound. And being
identical, there's a perfect tonal match between the front and
rear surround speakers and the centre channel, which can be placed
horizontally either above or below the TV.
The ingenious base of each speaker allows you to place them virtually
anywhere - on any flat surface, at any angle on walls, or on the
optional stands. And as they're fully magnetically shielded, there's
no risk or interferances with other equipment nearby.
With the original KHT 2005 system, KEF engineers wanted to create
a flexible, compact system that delivered audiophile quality 3D
sound at an affordable price - and the awards it received underline
how well they succeeded.
KHT2005.2 has taken things a step further, with a comprehensiveky
upgraded specification that brings listening enjoyment to a new
level:
Perfect sound, wherever you are.
