Superb R3

I purchased the R3s six months ago and am very impressed. They replace 5 yr old Kef q300s. And the leap ahead is dramatic. Audiophiles May scream when I say they are running off a Denon 3400h surround amp. But the sound is very impressive.
Even though a big room they can pack a healthy base punch. The stereo imaging and clarity regularly make you feel as if you are at the live performance of a track.
Really enjoyable to listen to.

Love at first sight

Bought the R3 and R2c as the front LCR upgrade of a av system. Comprising denon AVR-X3600H, Kef T205 5.1 set with a second T2 subwoofer. The system integration is seamless, base sumptuous, mids are precise defined, highs are aired, sound stage is enveloping.
Satisfaction at last, did I mention how gorgeous the R3s are.

Fantastic

I bought a pair of R3's to complement an R2C in my AV setup connected to a Yamaha RX-V6A and as Hi-Fi speakers connected to a Yamaha A-S2100.

After running the speakers in I love the sound, music is crystal clear and the bass is perfect across my varied musical tastes. As part of my AV setup the R3's offer a rich and enveloping sound stage that I am very happy with.
