DOLBY ATMOS ON A BUDGET WITH KEF Q50A
KEF's Q50a is the silent achiever that has enjoyed massive success since its release last year. An upfiring Dolby Atmos surround speaker; it will take your immersive sound to new heights, quite literally!
KEF's famous Uni-Q driver has been put to good use here, in the form of a wedge-shaped enclosure designed to sit on top of existing front and rear speakers. Thanks to the keyhole fixings, they can also be mounted on the wall as surround speakers.
If you've already invested in an Atmos capable AV Receiver but are unable to install ceiling height speakers, KEF's Q50a may be all you need to reach new levels of immersive sound.
Of course, the Q50a is the perfect choice for existing KEF speaker systems, but one specialist retailer we spoke to said they couldn't get enough of these for surround sound systems in rented apartments with both KEF and other brands of speakers.
KEF's Q50a Atmos speakers are a deadset bargain in our eyes, available in Black or White finish and just $695 RRP for a pair.

See and hear KEF at the 2019 StereoNET Melbourne Hi-Fi Show, Room M3, October 18-20 at the Pullman Hotel, Albert Park. Tickets on sale now.

applause awards
Each time StereoNET reviews a product, it is considered for an Applause Award. Winning one marks it out as a design of great quality and distinction – a special product in its class, on the grounds of either performance, value for money, or usually both.
Applause Awards are personally issued by StereoNET’s global Editor-in-Chief, David Price – who has over three decades of experience reviewing hi-fi products at the highest level – after consulting with our senior editorial team. They are not automatically given with all reviews, nor can manufacturers purchase them.
The StereoNET editorial team includes some of the world’s most experienced and respected hi-fi journalists with a vast wealth of knowledge. Some have edited popular English language hi-fi magazines, and others have been senior contributors to famous audio journals stretching back to the late 1970s. And we also employ professional IT and home theatre specialists who work at the cutting edge of today’s technology.
We believe that no other online hi-fi and home cinema resource offers such expert knowledge, so when StereoNET gives an Applause Award, it is a trustworthy hallmark of quality. Receiving such an award is the prerequisite to becoming eligible for our annual Product of the Year awards, awarded only to the finest designs in their respective categories. Buyers of hi-fi, home cinema, and headphones can be sure that a StereoNET Applause Award winner is worthy of your most serious attention.
