Tall, slim and assertive, XQ five is a genuine four-way floorstander with two 165mm (6 ”) bass drivers in addition to the 165mm (6 midrange/HF Uni-Q array and KEF’s new titanium dome Hypertweeter. The EGG uses KEF's Uni-Q driver array, which combines the tweeter. KEF Reference 3 Floorstanding Loudspeaker - High Gloss Piano Black (Pair) by KEF. That responsibility primarily rests on its Uni-Q point source driver array, a KEF staple. There’s a lot of technical details that go into the design of the driver, but the idea is that all of.
It sounds like some nice improvements have been made. I wonder why they moved to paper cones vs the aluminum in previous versions. It looks like they've dropped the wood finish option, that's a shame, I always thought those were pretty handsome. I can get a proper answer about the switch in bass driver cone material.
The Q350 I review won't have that driver, but I am still psyched to hear far KEF can push the performance of $600/pair bookshelf speakers, am currently optimistic. Should have the speakers in a couple days, and KEF says I am getting 'em first so I am not squandering that, an unbox and review is just days away. I'm hoping that the simpler finish options and paper vs aluminum woofers might leave a couple bucks for a more sophisticated crossover than what was in the old Q series. I might have some interest if that turns out to be the case. What did the old Q series use? Considering the glowing reviews and sales pricing on Amazon, I had been considering some Q100s.
But the updated models seem to have significant changes. Based on their looks, I guess we're supposed to assume they have trickle down R series tech? I prefer the old Q looks (silver matches my TV) but it's all about sound quality. Looking forward to the first reviews. I'd like to audition a Q150 vs Q350 myself. It sounds like some nice improvements have been made.
Nov 08, 2007 Hi, I also have the intel Pro/wireless 2100 card. I tested it with mac os x 10.4.8 on my Acer travelmate 6 type. (BTW, it works faster then windows xp, and runs with sound and good graphics) but no ethernet or wirelless.For the ethernet problem I use IONetworkFamily.kext wich works.

I wonder why they moved to paper cones vs the aluminum in previous versions. It looks like they've dropped the wood finish option, that's a shame, I always thought those were pretty handsome. OK the answer is the driver is still aluminum in front but behind it is paper that, I guess because of different resonance characteristics or whatever, reduces cone breakup by 10 dB. Still an aluminum woofer but now fancier and better-performing with the addition of pulp. A demo of the Q950 seems like a no-brainer, at that price. And with that sensitivity, and power handling, it would seem like a no-brainer also, to team it up with the flagship Aventage from Yamaha coming in July, right?
Never heard any KEF, or Yamaha, yet. Add a nice deep-hitting sub, and we're in business. I wonder if Magnolia will have this for demo.

Kef Uni Q Driver
The closest one to me has taken an interest in KEF, recently. But, kicked out Sonus Faber to the curb, unfortunately. Edit: Looked at their website for the Q950.they've taken the finishes to the extreme - that matte black.even it's blood is black. Wonder how it will look in person. Kinda a tough choice, between the 2 finishes. Yes, just 1st order. Wasn't really a huge problem for the Q100, but some of the other models suffered for it.
Kef Uni Q
The Q900 especially could have benefited from a notch filter on the woofer to mitigate breakup of the UniQ woofer, and IMHO all the towers would have been better off as 3-way systems instead of 2.5-way to keep the UniQ woofer from misbehaving at higher output levels. The odd part was that the center speakers were 3-way systems.
