About The KEF KASA500 Subwoofer Amplifier

This DSP controlled system amplifier is optimized to deliver thunderous bass from KEF Ci subwoofers. KASA500 is a powerful Class-D Dual 250 Watts per channel amplifier. This DSP controlled system amplifier is optimized to deliver thunderous bass from KEF Ci subwoofers. With both line and speaker level inputs, and DSP configurable pass-through with optional high pass filters – the KASA500 is versatile and can be deployed in limitless system configurations. Optional rack mount ears included.

To allow for future flexibility KEF engineers may update the KASA500 DSP firmware to optimize performance with additional KEF speakers. The KASA500 Programmer is a proprietary tool for updating the KASA500 firmware. Note: KASA500 software requires a "USB Type A Male to USB Type A Male cable" for connection between your computer and the KASA500.

The latest KASA500 Firmware provides settings for KEF Ci subwoofer models Ci3160RLb-THX, Ci200QSb-THX, Ci200TRb, Ci4100QLb and Ci250RRb with THX certified performance (if applicable) in both mono and stereo mode.
