Johnnyb53 I did a hour plus demo of the kef r900 s at a local.dealer who happens to carry many lines well known highend. His opinion is they are best yet at their price that he has seen. My thoughts are they are very compelling highly musical powerful yet refined and more. Also I had spoken with two other dealers that carry most of the popular high end lines. One had said is the best under 10k. The other had told me it is a fantastic speaker. Point being I believe you and drubin are right. Also I recommend that you check them out if you can. I am picking up a pair as soon as the dealer gets back from vacation.
KEF Q 900 ....... Any experience ?
I went into my local audio shop today and spent a good hour listening to the KEF Q 900 speakers. I was incredibly surprised by how good they sounded. Tremendous soundstage, excellent imaging, robust dynamic range, and excellent tonality with a very satisfying musical presentation. At $1800 for the pair, they seem to be an outstanding value. Does anyone have and experience with these speakers ?
