KEF Reference 207/2s, 3s, or Blade 2s

I was recently demoed with the Blades vs B&W802d3s
After all the hype round the Blades I was prepared to buy - and I am so glad I did not.
Compared to the  B&W 802d3 I found the blades lifeless and lack of detail
I had earlier heard the 207s at a friend's house (hence demoing the Blades) and was impressed, but he did have powerful Krell monoblocks to drive them - which is probably what they needed.
I am not surprised the Blades are heavily discounted - not a successful  product in my mind

I didn't compare the 207s with the blades
I heard the 207s and was impressed so I thought I would give the Blades a try

I compared the Blades at a dealer vs B&W802d3s

No comparison - so many areas were better with the B&Ws

(I ended up buying the B&W800d3s)
