GP Acoustics At Dutch Audio Event 2026 With KEF And Hegel
GP ACOUSTICS TO SHOW HEGEL AND KEF SYSTEMS AT DUTCH AUDIO EVENT 2026
GP Acoustics will bring three KEF and Hegel combinations to Dutch Audio Event 2026, demonstrating different approaches to system design.
The presentation will include the Hegel P30a/H30a amplification with KEF Blade One Meta, the new KEF LS LUXE active wireless loudspeakers with KC62 subwoofers, and the recently introduced Hegel H200 ‘The Connected’ integrated amplifier with KEF R11 Meta floorstanders.
KEF LS LUXE AND KC62
The KEF LS LUXE is a wireless active loudspeaker system incorporating the company’s 12th-generation 6.5-inch Uni-Q driver array with Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT), Velocity Control Technology (VECO) and the Music Integrity Engine (MIE).
The system’s design comes from industrial designer Ross Lovegrove, with sculptural organic forms and additional geometric elements. The Uni-Q driver is mechanically decoupled from the cabinet to reduce panel vibration, while VECO uses a closed-loop feedback system to monitor cone movement and correct deviations in real time.
The KEF Connect app provides installation guidance and includes Room EQ DSP, allowing the LS LUXE to be adjusted to the listening room and user preferences. Presets are also provided for integration with a KEF subwoofer. At DAE, the LS LUXE will be partnered with KEF KC62 subwoofers and will be available in Eclipse Black, Dusk Titanium and Mineral White.
HEGEL P30A AND H30A WITH KEF BLADE ONE META
The second system will combine the Hegel P30a preamplifier and H30a power amplifier with the KEF Blade One Meta loudspeakers.
The Hegel electronics represent the company’s approach to high-power amplification and control, with the P30a and H30a designed to work together as a pre- and power-amplifier combination.
HEGEL H200 ‘THE CONNECTED’ AND KEF R11 META
The third system will feature the new Hegel H200 ‘The Connected’ integrated amplifier driving KEF R11 Meta floorstanding loudspeakers.
The H200 combines streaming, a DAC, MM phono input, analogue connections, a headphone output and USB-drive playback, with 150W of output power per channel. Hegel’s SoundEngine2 technology is used to reduce distortion in real time.
The amplifier is specified as stable with loads down to 2 ohms and has a damping factor of more than 4000. This system provides a different approach to the other demonstrations, combining a connected integrated amplifier with a conventional passive floorstanding loudspeaker.
GP ACOUSTICS AT DUTCH AUDIO EVENT 2026
GP Acoustics will present these three systems in Room 82 in the Green Zone at Dutch Audio Event 2026, offering visitors the opportunity to hear the new KEF LS LUXE, the Hegel H200 ‘The Connected’ and the Hegel P30a/H30a with KEF Blade One Meta.
