Latest baby in the highly praised and award winning KHT line, the new version of the KHT5005 by KEF is now out. The KHT5005.2 follows in its brother’s footsteps with a couple of technical improvements, including the new Uni-Q driver concept and the HTB2 subwoofer. What’s more is you can now choose between the silver or black finish that best suits your installation.
KEF has just won the EISA 2006-2007 award for the best HT Loudspeaker, which uses the same Uni-Q technology. And this is not the first time for this series, as they also won the EISA award in 2001 and again in 2003 for the KHT 2005 and KHT 1005.
With the incredible success of the KHT range, we were hard pressed to find particular areas for significant improvement, said Alec Chanin, president of KEF USA. However, since the introduction of the original KHT5005 system in late 2003 we have developed key technology improvements in our high-end Uni-Q driver design which we have incorporated in the new KHT5005.2 system. Combine this with the inclusion of the radical new high performance HTB2 Subwoofer, and we are confident we have another winner on our hands.
The KHT5005.2 offers :
- New satellite and central channel speakers featuring the latest generation of Uni-Q drivers capable of generating smooth and raffined high frequencies and solid range of bass.
- A superb subwoofer that features an acoustically inert ABS-molded enclosure which may be mounted vertically or horizontally.
- High-gloss black finish to match your flat screen nicely
- New black speaker grilles, included with both available finishes, replace the KHT5005’s original grey speaker grilles for a cleaner and more modern appearance.
The KHT5005.2 kit is available now for 1800€.
