- Quality of the measurement data is medium.
- Origin of the data is KEF.
- Format of the data is .
-
Sensitivity:
- Measured: 87.9 dB (avg. 300Hz-3kHz for 2.83V measured at 1m).
- -3dB (resp. -6db) point v.s. reference is at 40.0Hz (resp. 34.3Hz).
- Reference level is normalised to 0.8dB computed over the frequency range [300.0Hz, 5000.0Hz].
- Frequency deviation is 1.8dB over the same frequency range.
- Tonality (Preference) Score
- Tonality (Preference) Score is 6.66
and would be 8.2 with a
perfect subwoofer.
- Details: NBD: ON 0.343, LW 0.275, SP 0.349, PIR 0.281; SM: SP0.964, PIR0.954; LFQ 1.1, LFX 32Hz
- Tonality (Preference) Score is 7.15
with an EQ and would be 8.48 with a
perfect subwoofer and the same EQ.
- Details: NBD: ON 0.293, LW 0.231, SP 0.307, PIR 0.232; SM: SP0.971, PIR0.957; LFQ 1.1, LFX 29Hz
- Tonality (Preference) Score is 6.66
and would be 8.2 with a
perfect subwoofer.
- Note: the off-axis average curves are truncated at 200Hz as this is close to the LF cut-off limit of our anechoic chamber. The on-axis LF response has been compensated using ground plane measurements carried out in free-field and is therefore valid only for that singular curve..
KEF Reference 5 Meta is a passive floorstanders that cost around 20000 USD for a pair.
