KEF's great grand XQ40 did in last year's big speaker test and trick the gold medal for the best speakers throughout 2008. Is it an achievement that lillebror XQ30 can repeat ?

KEF XQ30

By Christian Ranke (lydogbilde.no)

US Note: This is an automatic translation. The text can differ from the original review.

XQ30 is basically similar its award-winning big brother, only far more compact, and with one woofer less. This is actually the smallest speakers in the test, and with its front-mounted bass port can the fine be set tight against the back wall. Integrated...

Elegant speaker, exceptionally well assembled, lean articulate sound

Elegant speaker, exceptionally well assembled, lean articulate sound

Manufacturer's Description

Tall, slender and undeniably elegant, the XQ30 is the perfect synergy between performance and size. The pairing of an ultra-low distortion bass driver with the incarnation of KEF's signature Uni-Q 'point source' array for the middle and upper frequencies disperses a compellingly rich three-dimensional sound field evenly throughout the listening area. Crossover technology developed from the Reference Series assures excellent power handling, along with exceptionally fluid transitions.
