KEF final call

FWIW; Received an email today from KEF about final call on previous generation R series speakers. Good pricing for anyone wanting to dip toes into KEF eco system at probably better than used prices. R3 is $1400 a pair, down from $2200. Larger R series for half or better. Even a few Reference series in the mix.

No affiliation, just a satisfied customer. These are on available directly from the KEF website.

Thanks for the tip.  The R7 looks like a steal.  Maybe a home theater setup.

I lived with the R11 for a year or so then got upgrade-itus. I was looking for something more organic sounding with more/ and lower bass. I think a pair of R3's with two subs and tube amp would make a fantastic system. 

Thanks for the heads up.

I did not avail myself of this sale but did purchase a pair of R3 Metas. Best speakers I have ever owned (although that probably isn't saying much). I have them paired with a single HSU VTF 1.MK3 sub. I am having some difficulty in getting placement of the sub for proper augmentation. The speakers do pretty well without the sub, but I do like to hear that lower octave that is not quite within it's reach.

Not doing any favors on center channels. Currently using a KEF CC (with a super tweeter on top) which does an adequate job. Will take a lot to move me to replace.
