The Kef evening last week was a great success, a full house at Lyric Hifi

There were three parts to the presentation.

Alex Holt, one of Kef's R&D boffins, explained the difference between R series and Reference Series. The R3 meta at £ 1899 has had rave reviews everywhere so how can the Reference One with the same number of drive units in the same configuration be £7500 ??

First of all Alex showed us the different drive units and then he let us hear the difference. OMG, so much more clarity, so much more realistic, a night and day difference everyone agreed.

KEF Reference 1 Meta: a balanced blend ...

Kef R3 Meta                                       Kef Reference One

Spot the Difference !! 

Most recently Alex has been responsible for parts of Kef's new subwoofer range. These all include a Music Integrity Engine. This is a set-up system that has enhanced their capabilities in a stereo set-up, generally the weakest part of other manufacturers subwoofers.

We played the Kef LS50 W2 without a subwoofer and then added the Kube 15MIE. The transition from mid bass to deep bass was seamless, well done Alex!

This new technology is now in Kef subs from £ 599 to £ 2499

The third part to the evening was pure showing off !

Take the amazing Kef Blade 2 loudspeakers and feed them the best possible source, the Linn Klimax DSM3 feeding monobloc 500 w power amplifiers. 

 

Comments afterwards were along the lines of "Didn't realise a hifi system could sound so good! "

Truly stunning, yours for just £ 77,000
