NEW KEF KC92 AND KEF KUBE SUBWOOFERS LAUNCHED
British HiFi brand KEF has launched the new KEFf KC92 Force-Cancelling Subwoofer and KEF Kube Subwoofers, additions to their current subwoofer range.
DSP & MUSIC INTEGRITY ENGINE
Both KC92 and Kube feature KEF’s proprietary Digital Signal Processing (DSP) algorithm, the Music Integrity Engine® (MIE), one of the brands core innovations in technology. Tailored for each model, the unique MIE ensures every component works within the individual subwoofer in harmony. Powered by MIE, the iBX Intelligent Bass Extension creates an extended depth that unlocks the full potential of the custom driver. By analysing the input signal, iBX allows the subwoofer to play louder and remain dynamic at any listening level, claim KEF.
KEF KC92 FORCE-CANCELLING SUBWOOFER
The KEF KC92’s innovative design, which incorporates the patent-pending P-Flex Surround which was inspired by the Japanese art of origami, resists sonic pressure without sacrificing sensitivity. Similar to origami folds, the pleated construction defies internal air pressure, enabling the driver to move precisely in response to the aural signal. Deeper bass extension and more precise, detailed bass reproduction are the outcomes. The KC92 reaches depths of 11Hz thanks to optimised excursion characteristics.

9 INCH DRIVERS
KC92 contains two 9-inch drivers. A shallow, concave aluminium skin sits above a paper cone in the drivers’ hybrid structure, which also includes a vented voice coil and an enlarged motor system. The force-cancelling layout of the KC92’s two drivers is back-to-back, ensuring reactive forces are eliminated, which reduces cabinet vibration and maximises precision and detail.
1000W OF CLASS D AMP POWER
The KC92 possesses audiophile-quality 1000W of Class D amplification (a dedicated 500W amplifier for each driver).
The KC92 seamlessly adjusts to a diverse range of audio systems, offering a broad spectrum of connection options. With both line level and speaker level inputs, it can easily connect to any amplifier. Utilising KEF SmartConnect, it automatically optimises gain based on whether a mono or stereo input is in use, ensuring optimal performance. The line output with High Pass Filter (HPF) allows for fine-tuned integration.
ROOM PLACEMENT
The five-room placement options allow the KC92 to effortlessly integrate into any environment. Whether it’s placed in a free space, next to the wall, in a corner, snug within a cabinet, or using the dedicated apartment mode its performance will be consistent.
The minimal and timeless design of the KC92 is easy to match with a variety of speakers. Available in White Gloss and Black Gloss.
KEF KUBE SUBWOOFERS
The KEF Kube range of powerful subwoofers is available in four driver sizes – 15″, 12″, 10″, and 8″ – from the deceptively diminutive Kube 8 MIE to the behemoth Kube 15 MIE, giving options to any room size and system requirements. Multiple connectivity options and room EQ settings make installation and setup a breeze. Kube promises an epic journey to the deep, where every moment is a full body experience.
LONG THROW DRIVER
Kube has a long throw driver that fires from the front, increasing output at lower frequencies. This method produces an impression of direct force within the space, resulting in a tactile, compressed, and potent bass experience.
Optimally designed for the driver and the available acoustic volume, the Class D RMS amplifier in the Kube runs efficiently and cool, providing ample power for the subwoofer.
SEALED CABINET
The sealed cabinet design of Kube facilitates simpler positioning. With four sizes available, Kube can be customised to fit any space and need, including gaming, home cinema, and music. Kube has a placement-dependent EQ component that is simply adjustable to maximise in-room performance thanks to Music Integrity Engine. Kube blends into any setting thanks to its three-room placement options, guaranteeing reliable performance whether it’s up against a wall, in a corner, or inside a cabinet.
KEF SMARTCONNECT
Kube adapts to a wide range of audio systems due to its extensive range of connection choices. The line level and speaker level inputs mean it can be connected to any amplifier. KEF SmartConnect optimises the gain for best performance by sensing whether a mono or stereo input is being utilised automatically. Furthermore, Kube can be easily integrated wirelessly using the optional KW1 wireless subwoofer adaptor.
