KEF Reference 5 vs KEF Reference 5 Meta.


I know they updated the UniQ and Crossovers,  but does anyone know if KEF uses the same box for their Reference Meta speakers as they did for the original Reference line?? 

Thanks.

why are you asking you cant upgrade the older ones kef does not sell an upgrade kit and has no plans on doing so

@bhvf nailed it.

I have the 5’s and the 5 Meta’s talk about the new UniQ and that the crossover point was now at 3000 for the tweet , but I’ve found no other information about the other drivers or the inner structure of the cabinet.  So if there’s a small change to the crossover and that small mouse maze behind the tweeter are the only changes, I probably won’t look to upgrade.

Just being curious

My local dealer has a pair of the new 3's on consignment. Unfortunately I haven't heard them to give any comparisons. Seeing as how big of an upgrade "Meta" was on the rest of their line, I would think these are great but I know nothing about internals.
