#76 KEF Q4 Meta: $1,199.98 per pair Estimated Amazon eBay

Matching center: the KEF Q6 Meta (rated 3.9/5).

Pros: A slim on-wall speaker, 14.2cm deep, built around KEF’s 5.25” Uni-Q driver with a 1” vented aluminium tweeter and Metamaterial Absorption Technology. It works as a left, center, right or surround speaker. KEF’s own measurements show smooth sound power.

Cons: KEF’s data is not valid below 200Hz, so it has no preference score; the rating is estimated from it and the measured Q3 Meta. KEF rates the bass to 65Hz (±3dB), so it needs a subwoofer for full-range music. Impedance dips to 3.2 ohms.

How it compares: Just above it: Q Acoustics 3010c - $121 cheaper, 1Hz lower bass extension (-3dB). Just below it: Infinity Primus 150 - $400 cheaper, 2Hz higher bass extension (-3dB).
