Review: Great sound and beautifully crafted for the price - Beautiful sounding and crafted speakers that exude refinement and quality. Have the ability to reveal great detail when paired with other high quality components and quality interconnects. Pair well with a warmer sounding amp. Look great on their matching KEF stands (which similarly are not cheap but beautifully crafted and high quality). Strongly recommend.
Review: Reference standard reasonably-prices stand speaker. - Love ‘em. The most amazing thing about these speakers is that, by design, they are both time and phase coherent. So what? Well, that means on a good recording, you can hear exactly where the vocalists and instruments are placed in three dimensions. You can even hear different voices within acquire and different instruments within an orchestra very well. They also nail the dynamics of percussion like nothing I’ve ever heard in this price range. I don’t consider Stereophile magazine to be the absolute reference, but I do put some credibility in their reviews. They include the speakers in the “restricted low frequency” section of their recommended components in “Class A,” and some of the reviewers use them as their reference speakers. That is saying a lot, considering that many of their recommended speakers cost more than the average new car today. I’ve used them with extremely good separate components by Audio Research and McIntosh, but you don’t have to have that quality of electronics for these to sound excellent. I use them with a pair of subwoofers, but I have turned the subwoofers almost all way down, and they still have extremely good bass although not at the lowest octaves. I think the mids and highs are amazing too, especially considering that they use metal drivers. I got really turned off on metal tweeters by a pair of B&W speakers I had, but these exhibit, none of the sizzle and ringing that those did. Further, I think they’re great for almost any genre of music, from Black Sabbath to Beethoven. I have since upgraded my speakers because I got an incredible deal on a pair of Evolutions, but from time to time I consider swapping these back in because there’s something about them I kinda still miss. That said, I’m not selling them. They literally are the types of components that I know I would regret if I ever got rid of them.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fabulous.
*by B***Y on January 11, 2023*

Amazon just had the Titanium colored pair for $1,000. I pounced on em like a tiger who is stalking another smaller animal, or something. I figured that it was just dumb hype so I wasn't going to shell out $1,700 on some bookshelf speakers but holy hell they are fabulous. The tweeter technology is astounding. If you can get them for that sale price I would recommend them. I've listened to Bowers and Wilkins speakers that were about five times the cost and these legitimately make the B&W's sound like muddy rattletraps. Using a 100w per channel amplifier. You can get good amps for another $1k that'll make these sing. Shipped from Kef America so these are for sure legit. Trust me, I was a bit skep.
