Kef KHT6000 Single Satellite Speaker Gloss Black (HTS6001)

Every once in a while you come across a piece of design that looks so right you just know it’s going to perform superbly. Like the HTS6001 ACE satellites - designed from the start to complement the latest generation of flat screen TVs, they combine high-end KEF audio technologies in a consummately elegant new package.

Centre stage is a Uni-Q® array with KEF’s latest aluminium dome tweeter set into a 75mm (3in.) midrange cone, so you know that vocals are going to sound clear, warm and beautifully balanced wherever you sit.

With a line-up of no less than four 75mm (3in.) long-throw bass drivers with ultra-low distortion motors, you know that the sound image will be so real you can almost touch it. The separate Uni-Q enclosure utilises ACE technology to move the enclosure resonance below the working frequency range and absorb higher frequency acoustic modes. Not that you actually notice it after the first few minutes - you just find that you start enjoying music and movies more than you used to.

What you might not expect is the ease with which they can be positioned in the room and around your screen. Because at the back of those slender elliptical-section anodised aluminium enclosures you’ll find the ingenious new Selecta-mount concealed wall brackets; or, if you prefer, there’s always the neatly cable-managed standard shelf or desktop stand and the option of ’Bass Extender’, a reflex ported floor stand to further enhance the bass output.

Whichever you choose, you’ll have the satisfaction of knowing that you have a speaker system that brings out the best in whatever you play.
