MONITOR SERIES MODELS RDM1, RDM2, RDM3
The Monitor Series RDM1 and 2 were high quality loudspeakers designed to be equally suitable for home use or for near-field monitoring.

Using Reference Series parts in an attractive cabinet with high gloss side panels they followed on from the highly regarded Reference Series Models 101/3 and 102/2, and benefited from KEF’s involvement in the studio-monitoring arena which included the Professional Series models KM1 and P60, and the BBC designed LS5/1A and LS3/5A.

The KEF Uni-Q point source array is ideal for monitors due to its even power response and highly detailed stereo imaging. Both systems could be used equally well when mounted on their sides, for example, on a monitoring desk, due to the symmetry of the Uni-Q radiation pattern. The range was later supplemented by the floor standing RDM3.

Monitor Series RDM1 (1996-2000)
RDM1 was a compact two-way closed box system using a long throw version of the 165mm (6.5 inch) Uni-Q array from the Reference Series. It produced a clean, detailed and consistently smooth sound – a prerequisite for extended listening sessions.
