I am trying to restore a pair of Cadenza's from KEF which I bought with rotten passive radiators foam surrounds, as is common with the earlier version of these speakers. Other than the obvious I decided to check the health of the B200 midrange driver and the T27 tweeter but after plugging them...

Hi guys, I've been offered the speakers below, but the guy can´t tell the brand/model (no label on the back it seems). He was using it with some Sony gear, but he also had some other brands in the mix so it's not a safe bet that they're Sonys. Some friend told me maybe it's a Kef, but well that...

As far as I am aware there are no oval surround rubber/foam kits available. I am also aware there were different variations of this passive radiator such as the "missing-D" model, the B139. Should I look for a pair of these? Are they interchangeable, spec wise? Am I wrong and the surrounds on...

I have recently purchased a Pioneer PL-12d which has an Ortofon FF15e Mk II cartridge which i have plugged into the phono input on my Cambridge Audio A1 amp running into a pair of KEF Cresta 3s and the sound is really soft and really quiet. The volume has to be turned up to max to get a sound...

Hey there! I'm going to be driving a long ways tomorrow to listen to a pair of Sansui S-81U's that I found on Craigslist for $125. Currently I have a pair of Kef Coda III's that I received from my dad - he bought them roughly when he was my age. As far as I know, they have never been touched...

Found KEF speakers for sale locally and I thought of giving a try as I came across very good reviews about KEF. It was listed for very reasonable price and collected them without a second thought. Plugged them first to my Marantz SR5008 receiver (as they are connected with good cables) and...

Hello everybody need some help please please........i am going to be building a set of pro9-TL speakers using the original KEF B139 but will be using a vifa mid and tweeter. i need help with a custom crossover for these speakers. i will find the vifa model numbers once i am home and post them...

ok, first I want to say that I am biased towards vintage gear. I love the sound, and I really love the look of it. But I sometimes wonder if I could get as good or better from the higher end modern gear out there. I'm thinking more in terms of vintage 70s high end gear vs modern higher end...

Hi guys! I have a sansui au-a607 extra 110v recapped, which sounds awesome for me, but now probably I have a chance to get a new Nuprime IDA-08 or a ST-10 (using a parasound Zdac v.2 like preamp), my use is 100% PC, and I listen a lot of classic, pop, orchestal music at low-medium volume, paired...

Currently running my KEF Q100s off of a Hafler DH200 but interested in some possible options out there. Anyone familiar with the NAD 7400? Would this be a nice pair for the KEFs? Worth trying out? Kelley

Hi Everyone, I recently scored a Sansui AU-X701 on the bay. I've been looking for one of these for a while and am really looking forward to getting it up and running. I was hoping for some speaker recommendations to be used with the Sansui AU-X701. Preferably looking for a good set of...

I was in the process of acquiring a tube amp and asked for opinions on what speakers I should get. Well, the acquisition of the tube amp fell through, needed way too much work and he wouldn't come down in price. As it were, I got a lot of feed back on speaker choices. Thanks again for all who...

Hello everybody! I have a pair of C30 england made Speakers. they sound nice but i think they can sound better, i´ve heard about crossovers can be upgraded or at least they can be restored due the age of capacitors. I´ve been trying to find the diagram, but it has been impossible for me to get...

Hi all, recently purchased a pair of these in good condition. Yesterday had a couple of protection drop outs on one channel while playing quiet music. Now the bass cone is rubbing / scratching which is audible at low levels. The other speaker is free to move in and out with no scratching. Please...

Howdy, I recently picked up a pair of KEFQ100 and I'm powering them with a Hafler DH200. I was really impressed with the speakers in the show room but haven't liked them as much at home or maybe I am not liking the amp as much. 1. Any ideas on a better amp to match the KEFs? 2. Any speakers...

Guys, I have bought a pair of "like new" kef 107's with two different KUBES version 1, and version 2. Currently I am listening to them without the KUBE and would like to get onto re-capping the crossover. I have done much work on my 105.1, but the heads are different on these and I have...

Hey gang, I currently have a pair of Paradigm Monitor 9 v.4 speakers from 2004. I blew out the tweeters, and the factory is not sure when and if they will get replacement tweeters for my model speakers. I Love the sound of the speakers and they were very efficient, and excellent detail and...

A big part of this hobby is the exposure to different designs and technologies, and I'm at the point where I've got just a bit of financial room to flex if I can move a small pile of gear. That being said, I remember hearing the KEF LS-50 a while ago and being really impressed with their clarity...

Hi everyone! Had a short listen of Tannoy srm 12x few weeks ago, for the 2 minute listen i had they gave me a really good impression so I was browsing the ebay the previous day and came up to Tannoys srm12x for 1/3 less the price the local guy offered. I was just curious what you guys think...

I saw these on eBay for 159. Pictures were out of a guys trunk. Seemed legit... He was only 45 minutes away so I took a shot. Cosmetically they were Great after I cleaned them up. I pulled the drivers nominal impedance was good. Crossovers had no visual defects, but when I fired them up both...
