KEF Reference 1 any owners?


Hi, I am looking for information and reviews related to this speakers and all seems to be very highly regarded.
I am wondering if there is any owners out there that can share their impressions and how they compare to others in the price range?
It was a room in AXPONA 2016 presenting KEF with Parasound as per a great video I saw on youtube. A friend of mine brought a pair of R300 and I am really impressed with the bass and the imaging plus the accuracy without fatigue. First time i listened to KEF and I want to discover the reference line.
 your inputs highly appreciated.

Kind regards to you all.

I've had my Reference 1 Speakers running for a few weeks and wow they are amazing. They don't sound like bookshelfs at all. They sound huge. The sound stage and precision are easily a upgrade over the well regarded LS50 that it replaced in my setup. The bass output is surprisingly robust for my 17x15 room when I need more kick I turn on my dual JL e112 subs. 

Im just on the lookout for a more resolving integrated amplifier that isnt too annylitcal.
