Design
Our experts love the uniform and monochromatic design of the black and white options and the cherry wood finish delivers a touch of elegance. The KEF Q750 aren’t hulking speakers and can be placed in medium rooms.
What’s special about the KEF Q750 is the aluminum tweeter is placed inside the first woofer so a single audio stream is projected from one focal point.
KEF Q750 Features
Sound Quality: KEF Q750
The most coveted feature of the KEF Q750 is the Uni-Q Driver Array. This unique technology drives the sound from a single point to create an expansive and dynamic soundstage.
The KEF Q750 speakers are two-and-a-half-way design, right between 2 and 3-way speakers for more evenly dispersed audio. The Uni-Q technology also hits the acoustic “sweet spot’’ no matter where you are sitting in the living room.
The sealed chamber inside the speaker cabinet will optimize the audio further and minimize distortions and vibrations.
Frequency Response: KEF Q750
For speakers, the wider the frequency response [1] the better for audio projection. The frequency response for the KEF Q750 is between 48Hz to 28kHz, which is pretty outstanding for floorstanding models.
These tower speakers will be able to hit most notes seen in audio and movie content to intensify your viewing experience.
Driver and Woofer
The Uni-Q driver is a combination of the aluminum dome tweeter and the midrange driver. The tweeter feature’s the brand’s proprietary Tangerine Waveguide Technology, which evenly distributes and disperses the sound in the room.
The midrange driver handles the middle of the sound spectrum with grace and accuracy and the woofer provides deep and thumping bass flanked by dual bass radiators.

Impedance and Sensitivity
The impedance is the electronic current resistance in a speaker. The higher the ohm rating is, the better the audio quality. At 8 ohms, the KEF Q750 is quite exceptional and the sensitivity of 88dB will create an illuminating listening experience.
Power Rating: KEF Q750
The max power rating for the KEF Q750 is only 300 watts. The speaker isn’t as large as some other models, which can account for a part of the lack of power. The RMS is at 150 watts, which is also lower on the scale. However, the Uni-Q Driver Array will make up the difference by strategically amplifying and balancing the sound.
Performance: KEF Q750
Our team always makes sure to test each product in various settings and with different content. We believe doing such extensive tests will give readers the most accurate conclusion. What our team found from different KEF Q750 reviews was how useful the Uni-Q Driver Array was.
For action films, the explosions filled the rooms and the heavy bass in some of our favorite tunes escalated the bass, thanks to the dual bass radiators.
Connectivity
The speaker uses auxiliary 3.5mm cables for a wired connection. You can look into adding a wireless speaker kit if compatible to have a wireless setup. The KEF Q750 is a passive speaker, which means you will need to hook up an external amp. Our team says the best pairing is a 15-150 watt option.
Setup
The setup is infinitely easier with the KEF Q750. While other models may require trial and error to find the “sweet spot”, the KEF Q750 can give you optimized sound from anywhere in the room. The only thing holding you back for placement flexibility would be the connection wires, but you can easily solve this issue with longer cables.
Price and Warranty: KEF Q750
The price is decent for the KEF Q750 and was not more expensive than what you would expect for proprietary technology. The speakers are usually sold separately, so don’t forget to factor that into your budget.
As for the warranty, KEF offers 5-year protection for the speakers and a 60-day money back guarantee.
KEF Q750 Review Conclusion
As our KEF Q750 review comes to a close, our team couldn’t be happier with the results. We didn’t have to consider the setup and layout of a room because of the Uni-Q Driver Array, which was a definite bonus. The auxiliary bass radiators really improved the bass and the sealed cabinet successfully amplified the audio.
