KEF Reference 5 vs KEF Reference 5 Meta.

@audiotroy,

Not much help from you. I take it you don’t sell them, otherwise you would be singing their praises?

@curiousjim 

HI Jim, last time we messaged you changed your port settings to the small ones and said you might not need the sub anymore. I am looking  into buying 2 Rel S/812 subs to compliment my ref 5's. Have they made much difference to your overall sound? I know the 5's only go as low as 32hz so would expect them to.

BTW, I've not heard the meta version of the kef 5 and I will not be looking to upgrade them. I had (still have) the Ref 4's for over 20 yrs!

Cheers, Mark

I have music on several hours a day, but when I’m sitting in my spot, the sub fills in the sound beautifully. Only one you say? Yes.  It’s on the floor behind the listening position about the same distance away as the speakers are. Two would probably sound a bit better, but I don’t have a place for the second one unless I put them next to the speakers and for my room, it didn’t sound as good.

Why not call or email Kef directly?
