I have original R103s - but perhaps not so original, since they have IMF-coned units in place of the B200s. (Still B200 chassis, I believe.) On speaking with a guy at Kef, he said that this was once a 'popular upgrade', but what it was meant to achieve, I don't know. The visible difference is an inverted plastic surround (instead of the usual PVC), and radial, inverted ribs on the cone.We don't have an overall KEF thread here... Just threads for specific models like the LS50 and 107... And posting in those seems like thread jacking.
So I guess I'll start one. I love this brand. Post pics of your KEFs! :thmbsp:
These 105/2's showed up at my house last weekend. I do not see them leaving anytime soon.View attachment 862877
I have restored these Kef Carlton II, a lot of things where wrong. Coating on one of the B200G's were almost gone ...
Just joined the KEF club, picked up a pair of 303.3 on a whim via the 'bay. Never heard a pair, figured i'd add to the stable.
Haven't even wired em in yet. Not much info on these, seems KEF's attempt at a lower-priced model. Grills are clawed, but everything else is in good shape. Pretty nice construction for a budget line, even the grill posts are of quality. Now the teeny tiny 18ga-only terminals in the back... Gonna have to dig out some wire that fits.
Assuming these are lower on the food chain, how well does the sound match the KEF reputation? Expectations are minimal, but for less than the price of a cup of coffee, i couldn't resist.

Have you been able to give them a listen yet?
