Get KEF's super-slim speakers to match your thin TVs

While LCD TVs in the market are becoming thinner, home theatre speakers are getting nowhere near as anorexic-looking. Plus, skinny speakers typically don't sound so good.

However, the T Series range of loudspeakers by KEF manages to deliver high-quality, audiophile-standard sound while being as slim as 35mm. The new T101 speaker combines an ultra-low profile bass and mid-range driver that is only 27mm thin and a large, fully-vented tweeter that has 25mm-thin diaphragms.

The T301 speaker is larger as it combines two bass and mid-range drivers with one tweeter for higher output. It maintains the 35mm-thin profile but stands taller. The minimalist-looking T-2 subwoofer, whose 177mm depth is slim by subwoofer standards, completes the KEF T series home theatre system.

During a media briefing where we got to hear the T series' audio output, it delivered soothing music and natural vocals without overpowering the bass.

The KEF T series is available in three 5.1 home theatre systems - the T105 ($2,050), T205 ($2,650) and T305 ($3,050). The T105 combines two pairs of T101 speakers, T101c centre speakers and a T-2 subwoofer, while the T205 has a pair of T101 speakers, a pair of T301 speakers with T301c centre speakers and a T-2 subwoofer. The T305 has two pairs of T301 speakers, T301c centre speakers and a T-2 subwoofer.
