XQ20 The XQ20 boasts the same large Uni-Q^® driver as the flagship XQ40 in a stand mount format, so its mid and treble performance envelope is similarly impressive. With KEF’s sophisticated elliptical dome tweeter mounted in the acoustic centre of the bass/midrange cone, the latest Uni-Q array with ‘tangerine’ waveguide disperses an uncannily accurate sound image throughout the room with startling clarity, so you have far greater freedom of positioning. Bass extension is as generous as it is well defined, thanks to an ultra-low-distortion bass/midrange driver in a massively braced reflex-ported enclosure.
