Enjoy the Music.com's February 2016 Contest
Enjoy the Music.com and KEF are giving away a KEF Muo portable Bluetooth speaker ($350) in limited edition Brilliant Rose color to celebrate Valentines day! Available in a variety of beautiful finishes plus their new limited edition Brilliant Rose, KEF's MUO is a battery powered portable Bluetooth 4.0 speaker that seamlessly work with your phone, home computer, or any device that sends audio via Bluetooth or has audio output. You can use one, or two as a stereo pair. MUO combines KEF standards of sound reproduction with the convenience of streaming full bandwidth CD-like quality music wirelessly via Bluetooth aptX or via auxiliary input. The MUO features three versatile configurations – mono, stereo or 'dual-connect' party mode for use however the mood strikes you.
Unique driver technology for pure KEF sound with CD-like quality wireless streaming. Ordinary small-sized portable speakers have small drivers that generally sacrifice both bass extension and high frequency dispersion. To overcome this, KEF engineers developed an ingenious miniature version of the legendary Uni-Q 'point source' driver array. With the central tweeter dome decoupled from the outer cone by a flexible membrane, the whole diaphragm is free to pump out midrange frequencies as powerfully as a conventional driver while allowing the tweeter dome to move independently. so that it can reproduce the higher registers with pinpoint accuracy.
The MF cone is profiled to act as a waveguide for the tweeter, further widening the soundstage to fill the room with full-bodied, stunningly clear sound. MUO boasts an innovative long throw auxiliary bass radiator that's cleverly engineered to maintain its rigidity over the entire surface so as to deliver the tight, clean and generous bass extension you'd expect from a far larger quality speaker.
You can easily synchronize a pair of MUO speakers to stream superb CD-like quality stereo sound wirelessly via Bluetooth aptX. When placed far apart - for a party or another large gathering – you can select the 'dual-connect' party mode to replicate the same full-range response in each speaker, so that everybody gets the full benefit of the music you're playing. MUO has an internal sensor that automatically optimizes output to suit its orientation. So whether standing upright or horizontally. it delivers the same outstanding acoustic depth and definition. Connection to any computer or mobile device is straightforward via the 3.5mm Aux input. With NFC Android mobile devices, you can also benefit from the 'tap-to-pair' function – just hold the device against MUO and they're paired ready to stream your music in seconds. The rechargeable battery allows up to 12 hours of play time. A micro USB provides charging and for firmware updates. Dimensions are 3.1" x 8.3" x 2.3" (HxWxD) and weighs only 1.8 lbs.

KEF was founded in 1961 by Raymond Cooke OBE (1925–1995) and was initially headquartered in a Nissen Hut on the premises of Kent Engineering & Foundry (from where the name KEF is derived) – a metal-working company on the banks of the River Medway, near Maidstone in Kent. Cooke, an ex-BBC Electrical Engineer, was keen to experiment with new materials and technologies in order to create products with superior acoustic quality that could reproduce recordings as natural as the original performance. From the very beginning, the pioneering inventiveness of KEF loudspeakers was undeniable and now for several decades, audiophiles around the world have
revered KEF for its innovative, high-performance loudspeakers. Please visit their website at
