    I have an NHT set up of C4's in the front, C LCR for the center, and the MS Salatalites for the rears powered by a Denon AVR6700 and Kimber Kable 8tc connects.

    B&W 706S2 to KEF R3, M16 or Linton?

    Hello everyone, A search for new speakers is always a challenge. Currently I have the Bowers & Wilkins 706S2 at home as my main stereo setup and I'm somewhat pleased with the sound of them. They sound very good with Jazz but I have the idea that they aren't a relaxed listening. Much details and...

    Kef Corelli? Anyone?

    Hi Folks, Is there anyone here with experience with the Kef Corelli speakers? I can't find a frequency response or distortion measurements. Do you think there is any sense in getting a used pair for something else than love for vintage gear? Thanks!

    " Half- MUON" DIY SOTA-wannabe KEF coax based

    Excuse me if it would be partial repetition from other posts because KEF speakers get discussed here quite extensively but it seems this essence of my question is different and not specifically discussed anywhere. Basically I am looking at building a DIY system functionally similar to KEF LS60...
