KEF Joins Porsche in Wireless Audio

  • PDF

High-end audio vendor KEF announces a partnership with Porsche Design-- one resulting in 3 pieces of wireless audio gear, the Gravity One speaker, the Space One noise-canceling headphones and the Motion One in-ear headphones.

KEF Gravity OneThe Gravity One is a small battery-powered Bluetooth speaker, if one hiding a passive radiator the company says delivers high quality bass by responding to the air movements generated by the amplifier-driven active drivers. A battery promises up to 10 hours of use on a single charge, a 3.5mm jack is included and all comes inside an aluminium unibody.

Meanwhile the Space One headphones are a super-sized version of a previous KEF-Porsche collaboration, the M500 headphones. They carry 400mm dynamic drivers inside an aluminium skeleton wrapped in faux leather on the headband and earcups, and feature active noise cancellation KEF claims lasts for 50 hours on a single AAA battery.

KEF Motion OneThe final product revealed is the Motion One-- Bluetooth earbuds equipped magnets for clinging together when not in use. A rubber neckband holds the battery and controls, and while wireless connectivity comes through aptX Bluetooth a 3.5mm jack is included for the users of any device other than the iPhone 7. Construction is IPX5-rated for waterproofing, and the battery allow for 10 hours of listening per charge.

The aforementioned KEF-Porsche audio products should hit retail shevles soon enough.
