Okay, a relevant question, please? During you're evening's musical session, was there the possibility of adult beverages involved? I found (from experience) that the "correct" beverage can reduce the perception of upper midrange glare by 3 decibels while expanding the soundstage significantly. Other miinor sonic inperfections become quite tolerable and we may, in fact, embrace some of those "enhancements" -- like bass augmentation. If so, the KEF's deserve the same consideration.
@secretguy "I have a couple pairs of the super cheap Pioneers (Andrew Jones) that sound stupidly great."
I "hot rodded" a pair these with better crossover components and cabling a while back. They sounded so good I gave them to my Grandson to use in his system. I've been trying to get them back for years. He says: "no".
