Not doing any favors on center channels. Currently using a KEF CC (with a super tweeter on top) which does an adequate job. Will take a lot to move me to replace.
KEF final call
FWIW; Received an email today from KEF about final call on previous generation R series speakers. Good pricing for anyone wanting to dip toes into KEF eco system at probably better than used prices. R3 is $1400 a pair, down from $2200. Larger R series for half or better. Even a few Reference series in the mix.
No affiliation, just a satisfied customer. These are on available directly from the KEF website.
