KEF Universal Wireless Speaker System

Kef Wirless System

  • Users can locate the speakers virtually anywhere they want to in the room whilst still receiving remarkable CD quality sound with exceptional clarity and remarkable lack of extraneous interference.
  • Simply connect a receiver to each speaker and partner the transmitter with your amplifier to make wires across your floor a thing of the past. You then also have the option of relocating your speakers when necessary, such as hiding them safely away during parties, because you don't have to maintain a "line of sight" between transmitter and speakers.
  • CD quality audio transmission achieved with a revolutionary 2.4GHz radio frequency HFADPCM (Hi-Fidelity Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation) wireless link that ensures real time audio delivery with no mutes, audio dropouts or loss of bonding.
  • Wireless receivers can be used with any speaker of the user's choice.
  • AAFHSS (Advanced Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum) with advanced forward error correction is utilised to ensure that the audio signal remains interference-free from devices such as wireless LAN routers, digital cordless telephones, mobile phones and microwave ovens.
  • Unique Pre-emptive frequency hopping and adaptive channel diversity features enable the tramsmission system to change channels automatically to a pre negotiated frequency so that the system hops to the best available channel before errors start to occur.
  • Simple and convenient connection and setup
  • The Technology Explained
  • KEF have developed innovative new technlogies to deliver high-quality wireless audio, while at the same time avoiding signal interference:
  • A narrow signal band is used that is sufficient enough for high-quality audio transmission yet perfect for finding a path through the congested environment of a home filled with potentially conflicting devices. This narrow band is a feature of HFADPCM (High Fidelity Adaptive Differential Pulse Code Modulation), and along with advanced error correction technology ensures an exceptionally robust delivery of CD-quality audio between the transmitter and receivers.
  • The system detects other tranmitters in the 2.4Ghz frequency - such as cordless phones, wi-fi routers and mircowave ovens - then 'hops' out of the way of potentially conflicting signals. With this technology know as AAFHSS (Advanced Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum), a processor constantly monitors serveral channels at a time and continually switches to the strongest available to ensure a constantly pure signal. It's all done in milliseconds so you don't notice it's happening: so nothing gets in the way of your enjoyment.
  • Why would you consider using the KEF wireless speaker system when Sonos already effectively makes your music wireless and discretely out of the way?
  • There are two main scnearios, but also many more.
  • Firstly, the wireless system is useful where cabling from a zone player to a speaker is difficult or aesthetically disruptive. It now means you can site the speakers more conveniently. Sometimes it is more cost-effective to spend money on technology such as this rather than spend money on chasing cables into walls and redecorating afterwards.
  • The second common scenario for this device is for the rear channels in a surround system. The rear channels are notoriously painful to install because the amplifier is at the other end of the room. Now, if you have a mains socket, you can have a rear speaker. No cable runs and no redecorating. Simple, powerful, effective.
