Daedalus Audio Vs. Kef

HI, I'm looking at upgrading my current speakers. I have the Kef R700 and use them with the Odyssey Tempest preamp and Khartago stereo amp. What I'm hoping for is for some comments by anyone that has heard the lower cost Daedalus models and the Kef R series regarding how they feel they compare and/or differ in overall sound quality. I'm not likely to be able to easily audition Daedalus, so any thoughts you might have would help. Thanks very much.

You are looking for front-ported speakers, something that KEF does not offer.

I ended up saving up for a few months and purchased the Sonus Faber Olympica IIs. They were the speakers that I heard initially that got my attention and I couldn't be happier with them. I didn't get a chance to hear the Daedalus prior to purchasing the Olympica's, but I did eventually hear them at RMAF. I thought they were excellent, and I am sure I would have been happy with them had I purchased them, but I am glad I got the Olympicas and have no regrets.
