R3 Meta

Setup is Eversolo DMP-A6 Gen2 --> MiniDSP Flex --> Yamaha A-S3200 --> MoFi Sourcepoint 10 ME's + Hsu TN-1 Got the MoFi's earlier this year, replacing my KEF R3 Metas which were moved into the theater room where they will be on full-time movie/games duty from here on. What can I say about the MoFi's

I love my R3 Meta with dual subs integrated with room perfect. Most people would probably say my equipment vastly exceeds my speaker (ie spend 80% of your budget on speakers) but I have yet to see a set I would want to move up to. Kef reference? $10k for a 2% improvement in the low end doesn’t seem

The kefs are excellent speakers. I think they play well with untreated rooms bc they’re not quite as wide as the bmr. You know you like them, I’d try to listen to r3 meta if you haven’t yet.

The Diablos are amazing... Yet Steve Huff, who uses them as his reference speakers, out right said - while testing the KEF R3 Meta:"Did I miss my Focal Diablos while the R3 Meta were in? Well, maybe on a couple of nights but in reality I did not."AND"These speakers sound AMAZING with vinyl, at least

If you already have 7 other speaker channels being driven by your Marantz, it's already running out of current before adding demanding speakers like the R3 Metas. You'll definitely need to add external amplification to make the most of the KEFs, but your Marantz has the necessary preouts, so it's ea

KEFs are worth their Price Point. I have R3 Meta for my TT 2-Channel setup and they are great. Paired with REL/9x.

I don’t think I would call these midrange. These replaced a pair of vintage klipsch La Scalas for me. They are great speakers and they punch above their weight. My favorite thing is the midrange and high end is very clean and smooth. I thought I would miss something in dynamics but don’t miss it. Th

Also have this problem. KEF R3 Metas, they draw you in. A couple of songs ends up being hours and too many beers.

KEF R-series is what I have right now. My KEF R3 Metas sound incredible. My dream setup would be the Focal Grande Utopia Em Evo’s. But I would literally need my house to be built around them, they are fucking huge lol

I have pretty extensive experience with both the R3 and R5, and despite their minor differences on the spec sheet, I've concluded that for real world use, they are effectively the same speaker in different form factors. The R3 is a beefy bookshelf speaker and the R5 is a small, skinny tower. Just pi
