Keesonic Loudspeakers

Designed by Peter Keeley and built in a factory in Cookham Dean, near Marlow, Bucks. The original design, the Keesonic Kub was launched to great reviews in the early 80s. Using a 5.25" woofer and a 1" tweeter the Kub was very favourably compared to the Linn Kan and Ls3/5A.

Keesonic also produced at least two other speakers designs, a larger 3-way speaker (named KRF) and a 4 way speaker (named KBM). They both sound great with an impressive bass and fantastic mid and high.

Little is known about the fate of the company or the products. It is believed that Keesonic went out of business in the mid eighties, a victim of poor cost accounting and over engineering of the products.

Keesonic speakers are well worth looking out for.

Peter Keeley:

Prior to releasing the Keesonic Kubs, Peter Keeley helped Keith Monks develop and put into production the famous 'Keith Monks Audio' Record Cleaning Machine.[1]
