i am doing the same thing. i have a pair of KEF 104/2 and i have not had a single problem, but want to upgrade. i have auditioned several speakers in my system and for about the same money as the 104's cost back in their day, modern speakers are a big improvment. i just recently tries a pair of B&W 7NT and the imaging and detail blew away my KEFs. the bass was a little less, but tighter. the 104's were a great speaker in their day, but the new stuff is better. the new thiels also outperformed my old KEFs.
Replacement for KEF 104/2s
I have a pair of Kef 104/2s, which I have loved for years. However, lately I have been having problems. I have replaced a total of three tweeters and now I think that one of the mids is out. I think that I may have a bad crossover. Kef still has all the parts except the grills. I intend to have it fixed and then sell them. My question is, How much do I have to spend to get a modern equivalant of these speakers? If you have any suggestions on replacements it would be greatly appreciated.
My system is as follows:
Conrad Johnson PV-11 Preamp with Phono
Musical Design D-150B Signature Amp 150 watts per side
Musical Design CD-2 Signature CD player
Denon DP-60L turntable with Denon cartridge.
Kimber and Wireworld speaker cables
Nordost interconnects
Wireword AC power cords
Thanks
