My experience with The Music Room

KEF Reference 3 or Raidho X2?
I purchased the Reference 3 from Audiotroy. He was kind enough to bring the 3 and the 1 to my house. It was no contest . 6 months later , still loving them.

Audio Doctor is now Audio Innovations. I have done business with Dave and could not be happier. He will take good care of you. 
Full Range under $5k-ish
Focal 1028 and 1038 are being closed out at good prices. Take a listen.
