The world’s first Single Apparent Source speaker
The world's first Single Apparent Source speaker, now with 12th generation Uni-Q® with MAT™. A bespoke driver array engineered to deliver pristine performance, and capable of raising Blade to new heights of performance. Featuring four 225mm (9 in.) force-cancelling bass drivers, Blade One Meta is the top model in the Blade series.
Uncompromised Innovation
Obsessed with sound quality and committed to bringing a superior listening experience, our engineers created the revolutionary Concept Blade to showcase KEF’s technology leadership and powers of innovation with no preconceptions and restrictions. Since then, we keep pushing the boundaries of HiFi to create the loudspeaker with the best possible sound.
Uniquely KEF. Uniquely coherent.
At the heart of Blade lies Single Apparent Source technology; a unique technology that makes the Blade incredibly coherent, with noticeably more precise imaging. The latest version of Blade benefits from our latest acoustic innovation of the 12th generation Uni-Q® with Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT™).
Engineered and handcrafted in UK
Since 1961, we have been creating remarkable award-winning loudspeakers at our UK home in Maidstone, Kent. As our flagship HiFi speakers, Blade is still being designed, engineered, and handcrafted in Maidstone.

Gorgeous shelf
Color: 1set, Size: 16inch, Color: 1set, Size: 16inch
Gorgeous shelf! I know it’s not real wood but you can’t tell the difference and the price is right! Pipes are beautiful too! My dad put this up and had a little trouble aligning it up with the holes so make sure you have um right before you start drilling them.

Not REAL wood - particle board with veneer - but still beautiful.
Color: 1set, Size: 24inch, Color: 1set, Size: 24inch
Came on time, easy to assemble, relatively easy to install. Metal rods are actually metal, which is nice. Flanges are good quality, very nice rustic look.
Shelves are less wonderful. They are definitely not real wood at all. They are cheap particle board with veneer. I would not have purchased had I read more reviews, BUT it is still beautiful, sturdy and does the trick. We can always cut our own shelves if we should so choose and re-use the very nice hardware.
4/5 for misrepresenting as real wood, but 5/5 for functionality and aesthetic.

Perfect Blend of Style and Functionality!
Size: 48in, Color: 3tier
Couldn't be happier with the results! The combination of black galvanized pipes and thick wooden shelves adds a rustic yet modern touch to my decor. These shelves are incredibly sturdy and can hold a good amount of weight, making them perfect for towels and decorative items. I love how versatile they are; I can see them working well in the kitchen or living room too. The assembly was straightforward. Overall, these shelves are a fantastic space-saving solution that enhances the aesthetic of any room!

Provide mix of rustic and modern vibes
Size: 48in, Color: 3tier, Size: 48in, Color: 3tier
Absolutely love how these turned out! The black pipes and chunky wooden shelves give off a perfect mix of rustic and modern vibes. Super sturdy too—they hold a good amount of weight, so I’ve been using them for books and a few decor pieces. They’re really versatile—would look great in home office or living room as well. Assembly was easy, nothing too tricky. Overall, a great way to save space and add some style to the room!
