I have a pair of the KEF Reference 105/3 speakers and won't be replacing them anytime soon. I like the Uni-Q design .... which allows for greater, more even dispersion of mids and highs. Great soundstaging and neutrality. You won't go wrong with a pair of KEF Reference Series speakers. You can pick up a mint pair of these for around $1,500 used (list was $4K). Or go for the newer Reference Series 2's or 3's.
