Krachtige subwoofer – met een krachtige 200w klasse d-versterker en zijdelings 250mm long-throw basdriver met aanvullende 250mm abr, produceert de high-performance kube-2 subwoofer een zeer indrukwekk
At €100, this KUBE-2 undercuts even the budget end of the used subwoofer market, where comparable KEF listings typically range from €305 at the 25th percentile to €1,493 at the 75th—median €1,127. It's a screaming bargain if functional, blowing past entry-level alternatives like a basic Dayton or Polk sub that might fetch €150-200 in similar shape.
Buyers, verify the driver cone for tears or deformities via close-up photos, as these older KEF cubes often suffer cone damage from overdriving. Test for amp distortion or overheating on all inputs, and insist on the original power cable and feet—missing accessories signal heavy abuse. Listen hard for rattles before committing.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
KEF traces its roots to 1961, when British engineer Raymond Cooke founded the company in a modest Nissen hut on the grounds of the Kent Engineering and Foundry in Maidstone, England. A former BBC engineer and Wharfedale veteran, Cooke was driven by a passion for music and a commitment to technological innovation, aiming to reproduce sound as faithfully as the original performance. From its inception, KEF pioneered materials like foil-stiffened polystyrene diaphragms and Melinex tweeters in its debut K1 loudspeaker, setting a benchmark for engineering precision that propelled the brand to early acclaim.
KEF has long specialized in loudspeakers, establishing itself as a leader with iconic innovations such as the Uni-Q coaxial driver and computer-aided design techniques that revolutionized driver and enclosure development. While drive units supplied to other manufacturers fueled its growth, the brand's core output remains high-fidelity speakers across categories like floorstanders, bookshelves, and home theater systems, including early THX-approved setups. Active wireless models and reference-grade series extend its portfolio, though it eschews amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables.
Renowned for its science-driven heritage, KEF occupies a premium position in the hi-fi market, blending accessible high-end performance with cutting-edge technology. Collectors prize vintage BBC monitors and Bextrene-driver classics, while modern buyers seek its precise, natural soundstaging. Decades of awards affirm KEF's status as a respected innovator, appealing to discerning audiophiles who value engineering over hype.
