Versatile Expansion for Immersive
Home Cinema Sound
The R8 Meta serves as a flexible solution to
add Dolby Atmos height channels or rear surround channels to home cinema
systems. It creates a realistic, multi-dimensional sound field that enhances
film and music experiences through precisely placed
effects.
Outstanding Acoustics through Innovative
Filter Technology
By utilizing Metamaterial Absorption
Technology (MAT™), 99% of unwanted sound from the rear of the driver is
absorbed, resulting in a particularly pure and natural sound. The 12th
generation Uni-Q® driver array acts as a point source, expanding the optimal
listening area and distributing sound evenly throughout the
room.
Flexible Positioning without Structural
Changes
The system offers maximum flexibility in
placement. The speaker can be used as a surround or rear speaker via the
integrated wall mount, or placed directly on an existing floor-standing
speaker. In up-firing mode, it uses ceiling reflection to bring Dolby Atmos
height dimensions into the room without the need for complex ceiling
installations.
Precisely Matched
Components
As a sealed two-way system, the R8 Meta is
technically optimally matched to the R Series. The combination of a 25mm tweeter
and a 130mm mid-woofer ensures detailed reproduction and seamless transitions
within a multi-channel setup.
Award-winning Design and
Performance
The acoustic quality of the series was awarded
"EISA LOUDSPEAKER SERIES 2023 - 2024". Specialist media highlight the dynamic
and natural sound, complemented by the high-quality finished cabinets available
in Gloss Black, Gloss White, or Walnut.

FAQ
What are the requirements for
operation?
An A/V receiver or pre-processor that supports
Dolby Atmos decoding and playback is required.
How is the Dolby Atmos effect achieved without ceiling mounting?
When the R8 Meta is placed on another speaker, it projects
sound diagonally upwards, which reflects off the ceiling and
creates the impression of sound sources overhead.
Is wall mounting possible?
Yes, the speaker
has an integrated wall mount for use as a surround or
rear speaker.
