Buy on Amazon

Compared with other subwoofer in this category, the kef micro subwoofer has a convenient design. This is a high quality subwoofer that will not disappoint especially if you pair it with the KEF LS50 Meta. It is a Kef hallmark, whether in full-range loudspeakers or in subwoofers dedicated to delivering sensational bass. The KEF LS50 is not just designed to work sonically within your home, but aesthetically as well. This subwoofer can " disappear " while providing a noticeable boost as if they are coming out of the two bookshelf speakers.

The biggest magic trick of this subwoofer is that it can improve both the bass and soundstage without being noticeable.

The fact it's so small means you can put it anywhere and not trip over it. It is great for music and okay for movies.

Looks sharp and doesn't take up much room
Super small package but goes low (like 11hz low) and super tight bass definition
More articulate, delicate mid-bass and super deep bass also
