Testimonials
"Following advice from Wirefree Homes I purchased a Sonos Wireless Music System and Kef Ci ceiling speakers, together with Pioneer Plasma TV and Kef IQ5’s with Ci160’s as rears for my Home Cinema. I am absolutely delighted with my system and would recommend using this company"

KEF iQ90 Floor Standing Speakers(pair)
Only available in black ash finish
The iQ90 exemplifies everything that makes the new Q Series great. Like all models in the range, it's a bass reflex design based on pairing KEF's latest and most sophisticated Uni-Q array with powerful new generation bass drivers. All in an elegantly curved cabinet that's designed to maximise cabinet stiffness and minimise internal reflections.
Immediately distinguishable by the soft titanium sheen of the midrange cone and the 'tangerine' waveguide around the tweeter dome, the 165mm (6.5in.) Uni-Q driver reproduces the nuances of the human voice with subtlety and real depth. Midrange response is fluid, perfectly time-aligned with the high frequencies and evenly delivered over an exceptionally wide area. As you would expect from low distortion motors driving dual composite cones, the two 165mm (6.5in.) low frequency drivers of the iQ90 deliver lavish bass, consummately controlled; and with KEF's 'labyrinth' damping system, none of the accompanying distortion that so often impairs tall speakers.
As front speakers for high-end home theatre or as a stereo pair, the iQ90 has gratifyingly precise 3D imaging, breathtaking dynamics and real depth to the performance. As with the other Q Series floorstanders, a discreet plinth is provided for even greater stability; and whichever model you opt for, you can choose between Dark Apple, American Walnut and classic Black Ash finishes, or the superb new hand-matched real wood veneers in Light Oak and Walnut.
Key features
Aluminium dome tweeter with 'tangerine' waveguide
The unique 'tangerine' waveguide delivers a smoother, clearer high frequency response with an even wider dispersion as well as providing an excellent protection from straying fingers.
Enclosures
Fully curved enclosures minimise distortion by eliminating internal standing waves
Laminated MDF construction
Acoustically inert to reduce colouration
Internal bracing and new labyrinth damping system on floorstanding models for reduced distortion
Uni-Q 'pod' faired into the cabinet to minimise diffraction effects
Bi-wire or bi-amplification terminals
Oxygen free copper audiophile linking wires
Fully shrouded terminals
Compliant with low voltage directive regulations
Precision die-cast aluminium 'pod' fairing
One piece injection moulded port and trim ring
Seamless fit and finish
Uni-Q
19 mm aluminium dome tweeter mounted at acoustic centre of bass/midrange cone Neodymium magnet assembly
New horn profile, improves coupling to MF cone
Tangerine waveguide for improved dispersion
Titanium coated polymer cone
Cast aluminium chassis for rigidity
Vented design for increased power handling
Increased top plate thickness gives greater BL for increased force, control and power handling
CCAW edge wound voice coil (copper coated aluminium wire) reduces distortion
Blue curve shows the effect of motor improvements giving a more linear and controlled response
Faraday rings within the motor system reduce 2nd and 3rd harmonic distortion
Combined effect of Faraday rings and CCAW voice coils gives a reduction in 2nd harmonic distortion of 20dB
