The Blade 2 unemployed while the Ref 3s were connected.
Impressions of the KEF Reference 3:
I was a bit disappointed I must admit.
With the short port a bit better than with the long port, but there was still this "boxy" sound.
When I talked to him personally, Mr Coorg admitted that the shape of the speaker is the ultimate nightmare of a designer.
With the Blade, the team didn't have that restriction.
The mids and treble were nice, good imaging, a forte of the brand.
But you were always aware of the speaker, it did come in the way of the music.
So, over to the Blade 2!
The Ref 3s were moved (heavy speakers! Even more so than the Blades!).
We see our friend Stefan from AA here also.
A couple of good tracks were played.
Michel Jonasz, Bach's Toccata.
I was impressed by the bass those relatively small drivers could produce.
