Kef R11 vs Polk L800 vs Triangle Esprit Australe Ez`
I wouldnt call these new kefs British sound, harbeths yes, kefs no.  The kefs will be very accurate / neutral but open revealing and image well from all over the room.Not sure about low volumes..

Hi dmitrys!  So I like both sets of speakers that you have also.  What are you trying to gain in your new speakers and whats your budget?  Are you willing to go used?Out of the speakers you listed, I would go Kefs, Triangles, and take those polks ... 
What process did you use to integrate multiple subwoofers for 2 channel listening?
Trial and error!  It helped me to just have the sub playing (no mains) while moving it around the room to find the smoothest, most even response.  I have a bad null in my room that I had almost given up on until I put the sub directly behind me.  ... 
New Speakers $10K -$20K
Good choice on your Focals!  If you can go with a nice 2 channel integrated and 2 nice subs as well!

Heres a link to the tweeters, or similar to what tekton uses.i should add that he does offer a be upgrade but when cost of tweeter goes from$65 to $300, and you use 7 per speaker, things get pricey.I think a moab with Seas excels all the way throu...

@hilde45, the tweeters used in many of tektons speakers are a soft dome sb acoustics tweeter, probably $50.  The other drivers are probably in the $30-$100 range.  Fritz and Salk use drivers that are more in the $120-$350 price range.with all that...

To clarify, I do believe the Kinki. Is functioning normal.  The issues are really the whole front circuit board that attaches the 2 knobs and front display are all very loose.  1/4 - 1/2 of play on the knobs up and down and in and out.  Back botto...

I had a few drinks and bought some speakers, I've now sobered up
LoL, great thread.  I don’t think purchases should be made in the evening, or after drinking.  I’ve made mistakes doing that.  Luckily for you, I dont think you made a mistake.

No tektons, raven went back.  Not sure why a sub out would be fixed and not variable...anyhow, if it the sub out was variable and the raven had the crossover, i would have kept it.Im keeping the salks thankfully.  I think I would have been disappo...
