  This are very smooth sounding speakers - they will never sound shrill or fatiguing. The flip side of this is the treble is not as detailed and exciting as other speakers. I own the Klipsch RP-500M and I prefer those speakers overall, and I think a lot of people would. If you can find the Klipsch for a similar price, they sound more clear, exciting, and dynamic

 I own the Klipsch RP-500M and I prefer those speakers overall, and I think a lot of people would. If you can find the Klipsch for a similar price, they sound more clear, exciting, and dynamic. Also, the fit and finish of the Klipsch is superb.

Build quality not impressive - prefer Klipsch rp-500m

Bought these and the Elac Uni-Fi UB5 to compare them. Bought them both at discounts. Paid $300 during a sale for these. I think the overall the Elac sounds better but these aren't bad

 Paid $300 during a sale for these. I think the overall the Elac sounds better but these aren't bad. I think you get what you pay for. IMO they don't reach the sound of bookshelf's that cost $1000+ like B&W, but they do give you Hi-fi sound for not a bad price

Nice value for $300

 I was happy to play them loud because they sounded great loud. They really rewarded me the more. I turned up that volume knob. Additionally, i will say: um there's going to be two scenarios where people are going to use these right in a listening room like i did a smaller listing room, i would recommend, because these are small if you've got a bigger listening room, they have the 350 as Well as the floor standards, you may want to consider those instead, but in a small listening room more than four feet away, as you would normally be

 The grills are sold separately, which i did think was a little bit weird for the 600 price tag. But again this is where it gets weird, because at 300 bucks the grill is being sold separately. I'D be like, ah, whatever no big deal, but anyhow, let's get into the sound okay, so the top and the treble it's not going to have a sharp attack. Nor will it have a smooth attack

 One other thing to note: i guess uh, it's love or hate. Is the logo is gon na be kind of just like tacked on the top. I think it looks great other people, i've seen say they think it's like a cheap look. I actually like it and i say hats off to kef for trying something different with the logo

 It does seem to look a little bit like a five year old took a paintbrush to it when you get up close - and i wouldn't be the first person to say that the kef q line overall fit and finish is a little on the cheap side. Looking when you get close to it, but from a few feet away, it does look fantastic anyhow, so the speaker is 600 bucks and it does go on sale a few times a year for as little as 300, which was kind of strange during my evaluation period. I kept asking myself: is it a 300 speaker? Is it a 600 speaker? I decided to kind of just right in the middle call it a 450 speaker - and i do i do wish, instead of giving it such a deep discount, kef just sold it year round for a little bit of a lower price. I think that would avoid a lot of hurt feelings because i got to say if i bought these for 600 bucks, i would be pissed off if just a few months later, i saw them on sale for 300

KEF Q-150 Bookshelf Speaker Review. Best for lovers of wide imaging.

 I like fake wood, it's nice, it's got some grain in it. It'S well appointed. I like the little kef badging. It looks good uh anyway, uh five and a quarter inch aluminum, woofer yep and a one inch aluminum vented tweeter, that's concentrically mounted, which means it's in the middle and then it uses uh the woofer as a waveguide shoots sound all over crazy places

 They they seem bigger than they are and they sound they sound bigger. They sound like a 300 speaker, though they sound like a good 300 speaker um. To me this sounds better than the kef ls50. That might be just crazy talk

 If you tweak it, you can get. You can get this thing just to the next level uh. If you listen below 75 db, you're, fine, you don't even need a subwoofer nope. You don't they're that good with the bass

 They already are incredible. They'Re really going to be incredible, though, if you can put a high pass filter on them. If you can't do that, you can put a capacitor in line with them, which is a first order. High pass filter, um big presence, uh

Better than the LS50!? KEF Q150 Review

 The key 150 are a smoother sound in the mid-range and bass, delivering detail a bit on the sly with more body a little bit more resonance too. That makes the Q 150 a bit less nippy and exciting in the lower registers, but you're rewarded with plenty of detail, as well as a deep and full soundstage and lots of volume without Distortion, just which sound signature, you prefer will depend on personal choice but catch The latest addition to the Q series speakers are impressive. At just $ 550, the Q 150 offer high-grade sound, a mid-range price 

 The speakers match up well with our favorite newcomers to the mid-level bookshelf class. He lacks unify ub5, but where the UB 5 is more taught at instrumental tracks with more presence.

KEF Q150 Bookshelf Speakers - Hands On Review

 Unboxing showed everything was there and the speakers were definitely new, wrapped in their protective plastic sleeves The box had been damaged - ripped, hence the patch panels, but the foam surrounds had protected the speaker. The deal was 'Brand New' effectively with a substantial discount.  I purchased the speakers to replace decades old large bookshelf speakers. The reason I decided on the KEF is the Uni-Q driver that provides a better soundstage and stable imaging

  Would I recommend them? Yes, BUT - small room and with something to cover the bottom two octaves (subwoofer). My priorities for good sound, a decent soundstage, stable imaging, dynamic range, and lack of coloration were satisfied. And I would buy them again, or possibly - if She Who Must Be Obeyed (aka "the Finance Committee") was willing - the KEF LS50s.

  I purchased the speakers to replace decades old large bookshelf speakers. The reason I decided on the KEF is the Uni-Q driver that provides a better soundstage and stable imaging. The old speakers had what I call, "wandering violin syndrome", where the apparent source of sound moves around. The room the Q150s are in is 8' x 11

  Once dialed in, and the sub setup and synchronized as best as possible, the Q150s are a revelation. I have heard things in recordings that I hadn't before; imaging is rock stable - one of the issues I had with the old speakers. Dynamic range is excellent - the BR recording of Berlioz's, Symphonie Fantastique, final movement - is a real treat. Coloration is minimal - what was recorded is what you get, and subsequently bad recordings stand out like sore thumbs - there is no coloration to mask issues with the recording quality

Great for Smaller Room

 I ended up keeping the elacs sheer reason for the price to sound quality ratio and returned the rest. With that said, the kef were great pair with the best sound from the 3. The trebel were sparkling, the mid range more open and the bass though powerful had a rubbery(?) effect rather than sounding thunderous. The Klipsch disappointed, while the elacs did better in bass

 The trebel were sparkling, the mid range more open and the bass though powerful had a rubbery(?) effect rather than sounding thunderous. The Klipsch disappointed, while the elacs did better in bass. Back to kef, they look amazing, smaller print, and would do good for movies and music alike. I really didn't want to send them back because they were really good but in my current plan I wanted some temporary speakers to fill a year without spending too much as I intend to go for floor fronts and surrounds pretty soon

When I purchased this, I audited Klipsch r51, ELAC 6.2b. I ended up keeping the elacs sheer reason for the price to sound quality ratio and returned the rest. With that said, the kef were great pair with the best sound from the 3

For the price expected more, but overall good speaker

 I love the way the tweeter's wave guide lines up perfectly with the driver's protrusion lines. It basically projects sound outward in 9 segments (look at the product pic closely to see what I mean). The cabinet is fascinating to look at and feel. It reminds me of 3d printer plastic as it's got a wound thread look

  I'm running these off an smsl ao200 amp via a Schitt Modi 3+ dac and an ifi zen blue bluetooth receiver. I am pleased as can be. Some have said these start to chuff at high volume but I've taken them to the height of comfortable listening levels where I can clearly see the woofers moving and all I can hear is clean and clear music full of clarity, power and refinement. They'd pair best with a revealing amp for sure

00 and have no regrets at all. They seem to always be readily available via that route too.  I'm running these off an smsl ao200 amp via a Schitt Modi 3+ dac and an ifi zen blue bluetooth receiver. I am pleased as can be

 The cabinet is fascinating to look at and feel. It reminds me of 3d printer plastic as it's got a wound thread look. It is quite different than most speakers, especially when the light hits it. It will never look shiny aside from the aluminum dome tweeter and woofer frame

Rich sounding loudspeakers that can really slap

 I have a small living room, it's about 20 L x 13 ft W and these fill the entire area plus the kitchen with amazing sound at normal listening levels. You really have to run these about 50 hours or more to open them up and give some space from the wall as advised by Kef. I won't mention brands but I did return two sets of speakers before deciding to keep these, the uni-q driver works it's special magic to broaden the soundstage and imaging. With the Powernode the mids are so clear and the highs are smooth never shrill or annoying

 Initially I had them hooked up to my Yamaha RX-V4A AVR but it just couldn't do them justice. I was considering upgrading to the Kef LS50 Metas but these sound so sweet hooked up to the Powernode that I think I'll save myself $1, 600 for the time being. I'm also using a sub with them but they really don't need one. It's a matter of preference

 I've crossed the bass at 80 Hz, but could bring that down to 60 with no problem they could handle the low frequency. Very pleased with these, especially paired with a good quality stereo amplifier.

Worth every penny

It's also one of the most enduring - there have been Wharfedale DIAMOND speakers on the market for the past 38 years, updated from one generation to the next.Many DIAMOND models have won awards over the years - since the turn of the millennium, the DIAMOND 8 Series, DIAMOND 9 Series, DIAMOND 10 Series and DIAMOND 200 Series have all yielded What Hi-Fi? Award-winners.But the all new DIAMOND 12 Series is the best DIAMOND range yet! Developed in collaboration with Karl-Heinz Fink - one of the most successful loudspeaker designers on the planet.

 If you like slightly "warmer," English sounding speakers, these are the best you can get in this price range.

The sound quality is really great. The only reason I did not keep them is that another pair of bookshelf speakers I auditioned had more detail in the treble and upper mid-range, were "airier," and did a slightly better job of sound-staging. My father had a pair of floor-standing Wharfedale speakers in the 70s. They were amazing

These are great speakers.
