Anyone hear of KEVEK speakers?


What I know so far is that they were manufactured in Carlsbad, CA by Kevek Speaker Technology in the late 80's and they use Vifa components.
Any other info would be appreciated.

Yes i've heard of them. They were produced by The Speaker Factory in Encinitas, California, not Carlsbad. They had 4", 6", 8", 10", and 12" drivers which were used for home and car audio. They were a very top quality brand which unfortunately disappeared. I have some of their 12" subs which I might want to sell.
Hello,
I just found this post. I used to be good friends with the designer of these speakers John Bradford. He owed a home/car audio business in Encinitas Ca. called Speaker Factory. My uncle used to be a seller of the Kevek line. My parents have a pair of ES 6's and my friend has a pair of ES 8's. My uncles name is Ed Frias. He now is a speaker manufacturer himself. His own line of speakers is EFE Technologies. As far as I know John Bradford and the Kevek line of speakers are LONG GONE !!!
I have a beautiful like new pair of Kevek ES 10's..They have had the tweeters replaced and I am desperately searching for a pair of originals..I love the looks of these speakers and they sound pretty darn good even with the Parts Express tweeters but I really want them to be back in original form..Can anybody help?
I have a pair of Kevek ES 6's. I'm glad I found this post, I just hooked them up after perhaps 15 years of storage and they sound better than anything else I have today. Although I now remember why I stopped using them, one woofer, I believe it's a 6.5 inch woofer, is not working. I assume it's blown, though I don't remember if I took it apart to confirm.

If I replace these woofers with Vifa woofers from Parts-Express, does anyone think I'll notice a difference, other than having both woofers work?

I have the original tweeters and they sound great. I'm using a PSE Preamp and a NAD Power Amplifier. Definitely from the late 1980's.
So these speakers have a blown woofer and still sound better than anything you have today. Either they are the best thing since sliced bread, or that bar is pretty low.
