KEF X300A Merkblatt
High Fidelity Setup
Innovation is what sets KEF apart from its competitors. For
over 50 years KEF has been at the forefront of loudspeaker
research and development, designing class-leading speakers
that have dealt with the challenges of reproducing the
latest musical formats, and reproducing them to the highest
possible quality. The X300A continues this legacy today.

The X300A speaker is a premium active design conceived
to offer the highest resolution music reproduction from a
PC or Mac, desktop or laptop computer – all via a ‘distortion
free’ USB digital input. There is even a backup analogue input
with its own level control so you can easily connect any
smartphone or MP3 player.

Unlike typical active computer speaker designs the X300A
utilises twin class AB audiophile grade amplifiers (typically
used in high quality hi-fi amplifiers) inside each speaker, one
for HF and one for LF/MF. This means that because each
driver has an amplifier delivering its own power, the tweeters
(vented designs to help lower distortion) are not affected
when the woofer amps are driven close to the limit, resulting
in a much cleaner sound and greater control at higher levels.
Featuring with high performance toroidal transformers to
minimise hum noise and electromagnetic interference, in
keeping with the best pro audio monitors available today.

High Definition Sound
Digital USB input and inter-speaker connections provide
lossless high resolution 96kHz/24 bit quality sound from
source to output. This is in addition to high quality audiophile
DACs, which means that when you connect up the X300A
into your PC or laptop, you’ll by-pass the computer’s internal
DAC and make use of the high quality DAC in the X300A.
The result is that whatever source your music is coming
from, whether it’s your phone, MP3 player or computer, the
X300A will deliver accurate, high resolution playback.

To get the very best from the twin class AB amplifiers, an
award winning Uni-Q driver design, adapted from KEF’s
flagship Blade speaker is featured in the X300A.

The Uni-Q driver array uses an extremely light and rigid
aluminium/magnesium cone designed to deliver fast and
clean mid-range. With the aluminium tweeter, featuring KEF’s
‘Tangerine waveguide’ placed at the acoustic centre of the
cone for optimum performance, not only will it increase
dispersion and reduce the traditional ‘sweet spot effect’
making placement easy, but it’ll reproduce upper registers
with startling clarity, smoothing the transition to midrange
frequencies and reproducing your music with flawless
accuracy.

With other innovations such as the Z-flex surround for
a smooth transition between cone and cabinet and large
neodymium magnets with copper caps to reduce inductance
and distortion, the Uni-Q driver array developed for the
X300A will provide a wide, clean and detailed sound field
whatever source your music is coming from.
