I'm sold on them

@kmvuniverse 3 года назад

I've followed every steps,but I'm having some issues with the NBT Facebook link,I had to search for the page directly, although I saw the page,I can't open it for some reason,I think it's Facebook issues,but I'll keep trying,hope it still counts.

@chucksimonds5164 3 года назад

This patreon really likes those speakers.

@ravencorvinus3391 3 года назад

Hi guys. I’m having issues with the NBT Facebook link too. I also searched for the page directly but I can’t open it either. I’ll keep trying thought.

@tallpaull9367 3 года назад

KEF is such a solid company. Great sounding and clean, stylish looks.

@amandal4550 3 года назад

The Walnut finish on these speakers looks spectacular. Wonderful job KEF! Additionally, great job NBT Studio for presenting.

@stockmarketman 3 года назад

I have the LS50's and became a huge fan of the dual concentric design. Can't imagine how good the sound of home theater dolby atmos would be especially the sound bouncing off the ceiling. KEF is one of the best engineered speakers and another great entertaining review.

@michael-4k4000 9 месяцев назад

What about Bose? Have a lifestyle 48 and just love it. Also own Kef Q750, Q650, Q150. Kef is the cats meow, however, the Bose is a lot easier to setup and use. For most people the Lifestyle systems sound fine.

@rossphenis2084 3 года назад

It looks like a great set up. I currently have a budget wharfedale home theater system but with my limited space and room design I just can't get the most out of my system and I couldn't figure out how to get around the room situation but this setup is the solution! Awesome! Thanks for the videos, I have really learned a lot from all of them. Keep up the great work!

@geohof 3 года назад

I really appreciate how you went into depth how you setup the kef theater. Even if I don’t win, you guys gave me something to aspire to.

@mhart9279 3 года назад

Your dollar-centric reviews are real world thinking. You've helped me balance cost vs compromise and value. The construction of stereo gear is generally what pushes me toward a purchase, for example I bought a Willsenton R8 based on your review, and I bought KEF LS50's because of your description of it's construction. This review hits my highlights with details on concentric design and set up.

@homeworldful 3 года назад

I'm rather impressed at how much of the sound signature KEF were able to keep going from their reference line to the Q series. Best of luck to everyone entering to win!

@mattbyrnes4171 3 года назад

I have a pair of the Q150, and I'm really impressed with the sound. Always loved the KEF sound, and would love an Atmos setup that consisted entirely of them!

@FOH3663 3 года назад

This KEF series seems to possess everything... and it's ability to scale up or down... yet retain the core Uni-Q voicing, represents such solid product viability. Living with big coaxial LCRs, they image and throw a coherent soundstage simply due to the technical attributes of a coax. Plus, and oftentimes overlooked, the minimum listening distance being so close, affords the KEFs a great deal of latitude in usability. Again, solid content, All the best

@havok2022 3 года назад

Have KEF in the living room now and would love some additional channels for Atmos. Always have loved their sound for the money across the board.

@jsvbravo 3 года назад

Kef speakers are really phenomenal but the combination of dirac, your minidsp and acoustic panels seems to make a huge difference! Keep it up, guys!

@speedogomer 3 года назад

A pair of KEF c75 were my very first hifi speakers. I had been listening to bargin basement stuff before that, and the KEF were a revelation. My heart will always have a soft spot for anything KEF.

@FunFiEmpire 3 года назад

Have been a patreon member since the SMSL DA-9 award review and have been saving up for it and speakers to replace my 30 year old BIC Venturi V52's. I have loved these since high school but realize it is time to upgrade. Have been binging other reviews, and this has to be my favorite so far. I can totally relate with the room size (I have a 10x12x9 myself!), and the flexibility of the Q series to be both audiophile stereo and full Atmos surround is highly appealing. I especially like the ability to put the atmos module on the wall!

@PCM-mc5xy 3 года назад

Our new house would be a great place to install this system. Have owned KEF speakers for over 10 years. You guys are great!!

@Davis55229 3 года назад

After many years dreaming, searching for the best option for me and saving money, lately I was able to buy my first pair of speakers. The Q150s. They not only sound superb, but also are very wonderful and well done. I’m very happy with the time spent with these little babies and I would love to win the whole atmos set! Good luck for all of us!

@davidtreece2889 3 года назад

These speakers would finish my home theater system. I love KEF, great bass and clarity. All around good speakers.

@randleton_ 3 года назад

Great video! I actually recently started looking into possibly buying this exact set of speakers when I saw your guys video! Your explanation of how well these speakers work in a smaller room size has really convinced me that I should pick these up when I'm able. Thanks for making me feel okay with having a decent setup in a less than ideal space haha.

@Firebottleman 3 года назад

Hey Jay. You guys are going BIG with this one. What an awesome giveaway!! You've come such a long way in a short time. Good on you man! Keep these good reviews coming. I bought my mother in law some mid size uni-Q towers in the mid nineties. After that, I was in her circle. Always a good place to be with the in-laws! Lol. Kef has been making the Uni-Qs forever. No wonder they are so good. Cheers from New Brunswick.

@edeppel6710 3 года назад

Recently rescued a pair of KEF 103.2 Reference speakers, built in the '80s. Amazed at how well their speakers hold up over time. No foam for the surrounds so all of the drivers still work great and have that classic KEF sound. Would love to have a complete KEF surround setup like that. With the Q series borrowing technology from the References series these represent a great value for the dollar. Nice review!

@john57125 2 года назад

Thanks so much for making this video. I've been going back and forth between what speakers I really want for my 9.1 HT setup and think I finally made up my mind after watching this! Really well made video, thanks guys.

@PrairiePolarBear 3 года назад

Great job Jay and Thujan! I saw your review of the Q950 in your home theater a while which made me go out for a demo at Visions. I totally agree when you talk about the imaging. I think it’s all about that concentric driver which also makes a difference with the center channel. I really fell in love with the Kef sound that day, but a lass my budget isn’t at the point where I can pull the trigger to bring them home. Any way, great review and as much as I love your two channel reviews I’d love to hear your impressions on more home theater setups or at least center channels. There’s hardly anybody doing reviews of center channels. Thanks

@bryanlacey2024 3 года назад

Its wild how much aesthetic of this chanel has improved over the years! Gave up my HT to make way for 2 chanel gear a few years ago and still miss it..

@PaulEldridge1 3 года назад

Much appreciated (as always!). The thing I took from all this information was how the KEFs can be set up without (or with few) compromises. Hardly anyone has the "perfect" room...

@michaelpaxhia7098 3 года назад

I’ve enjoyed my 5.1 surround sound setup so far, would be very interested in trying an Atmos setup like this one. I like the Kef sound as well as their design aesthetic.

@johnholmes7618 3 года назад

Glad you guys showed what is capable in a small room with Atmos.

@piker3000 3 года назад

I have always had odd shaped media rooms. Room correction and forgiving speakers have always been essential for me. Great setup here gents!

@cau8365 3 года назад

Love the new look Jay. Thujan is gaining more grounds and getting more comfortable in front of the camera. Great team working together.

@BenBayle 3 года назад

Working on finishing my home theater space. Have been shopping KEF vs Polk vs Klipsch. The room is ready for atmos and had the q750 with q650 on my short list. The video is very informative. Good luck to all in running.

@stevedurso2913 3 года назад

It's refreshing watching you explain, in plain English, how to set up and get the most from a Dolby Atmos home theater system. You make home audio fun and interesting for the vast majority of us fledgling audiophiles. As an old school audio enthusiasts since the late 70's, I have always had an intriguing interest in surround since since I first heard Top Gun played at a friend's house in the mid 80's. I have the room to set up your Kef system and if I were blessed enough to win the contest, I'd video the installation and sound checks for you and all of us viewers of yours. Keep on doing such a great job at providing us with invaluable information and resources that helps guide us along this lifelong journey. All the best! Steve

@freelancer1499 3 года назад

Really liking how you go step by step on setting up the Atmos process. Makes everything much easier to understand compared to figuring it out alone :D

@tcc5750 2 года назад

1:35 Jay you liking HxH makes me like your channel so much more. One of us, one of us.

@DuyRuan 3 года назад

KEF always designs nice looking speakers with sounds that match.

@redstarwraith 3 года назад

I am glad you presented a tutorial on how to set up a home theatre system. I was frankly, always intimidated by all of this stuff!

@marcohillenbrand7039 3 года назад

I have got the Kef Q500. I went to my local dealer and said I want a set of speakers in a certain price range. He demoed me several speakers from Canton, B&W, but the moment he turned on the Kef's I knew I had to have them!!! I felt like I was getting a private concert. Those uni-q drivers are my absolute favorite since then. And for those who are sensitive to high sounds, these are especially great. The highs are absolutely smooth but still accurate. Would recommend them at any time. I would really like to listen to them in Atmos 😍

@krancan25 3 года назад

I have the q150 for my computer desk and I love them… would love the 5.1.2 setup for my living room as well 🙏

@sethdryer4441 3 года назад

As always, great production quality and content. I would love to have these speakers in my home.

@rogerabn 3 года назад

A stellar setup and the AV cabinet is beautiful!

@greggawhite 3 года назад

Kef speakers are definitely in my future! I have just auditioned some and could not believe the quality of the sound.

@johnreel8944 3 года назад

I am a Lean Six Sigma Master Black Belt and have a strong quality control back ground. From what I have viewed impressed me with the workmanship and sophistication of the build and the esthetic delight. It is the very first surround sound that I have liked over the years of looking. This would be my first surround sound purchase and this has motivated me to look deeper at KEF. I am strictly stereo... but now it has awakened my eyes and ears.

@richardcarnahan6335 3 года назад

Hey guys thanks for the great video. I’ve always been interested in home theater. but from all I’ve read about it. I was terrified to even take on the task. Thanks for making it understandable. Please keep up the great videos.

@adamjj85 3 года назад

Wow, quite the combination with Kef and Dirac! Interesting results for sure on the speaker levels and distances. Would be cool to see the frequency response before and after.

@Mark-rn6rs 3 года назад

Glad to see you are covering more home theater. Always wanted to try a concentric driver.

@kaervekGRIM 3 года назад

This would be such a fantastic upgrade from my Allison CD7 speakers and small integrated ADS amp. I cannot say I have heard many KEF systems but I certainly would love to. The wood looking shell on the speakers and the NAD design really do look wonderful together.

@RealDealy 3 года назад

The design is perfect for home theater The wood gives an old school feel

@BFITLIFE 3 года назад

I like that the Starke Sound Amps and the NAD both use XLR. Thats next level right there!

@audi-o150 3 года назад

Excellent video. In the process of updating the HT now myself. Keep up the great vids guys.

@Psyphonyx_Life 3 года назад

KEF concentric UniQ driver for surround placements and timbre matching around the room is a great idea.. I would mount the atmos pods to the ceiling though.. Not a fan of bouncing sound waves for that effect. I’d love an R series system.. 7.2.6 .. with R11 and R3 .. with modules mounted up top. 🙏🙏

@jasonmichaels4791 3 года назад

Huge fan of kef uniQ and your content. Great video. Keep up the good work.

@litzy7892 3 года назад

I actually have a dedicated room for this system to go into! The atmos feature would be fantastic. It would give me a reason to upgrade my older Denon receiver.

@robertjohansson491 3 года назад

I like the look of the speakers but in combination with the wood color I'M IN LOVE

@fahadalharbi3169 3 года назад

I am new to home theater and I have been searching for two weeks for a good setup and i saw a good reviews on KEFs speakers 🔊 and good videos and I decide to go with KEF hope i win .

@ttownscott 3 года назад

I've long been a Kef fan and love my vintage Reference 101's. It would be fun to step up my theatre config. I would want to retain my tube amps though if possible.

@johnnixon2504 3 года назад

Smart design, I love the trickle down tech from these cutting edge companies.

@ebrahimsiddiqui2762 3 года назад

I've gotten into HiFi relatively recently. The Kef q150 were actually my first pair of HiFi speakers. I've since moved on to a vintage system and tried several other brands, vintage JBL, older Kef towers, Tannooys, vintage and modern Klipsch etc, but I always remember the Kef sound signature very fondly. I'm not sure what you guys meant by intellectual, but that's my comment haha. Thank you all for keeping this channel running and for reviewing lots of interesting stuff! It's nice to see other fellow young(er) audiophiles have a voice! (Thank you also for reviewing Willsenton stuff, you've singlehandedly piqued my interest in the company, I'm fairly certain I'll own some of their fantastic tube stuff within the year). Best of luck to everyone hoping to win the giveaway!

@michael-4k4000 Год назад

Is kef as good as bose?

@eeyorebill04 3 года назад

Nice! Kef Q550 has been on my short list for upgrading my speakers for awhile now....a whole 5.1.2 system around the Q750 would be awesome!

@seandushane6794 3 года назад

Great video always enjoy your view on the sound. Also liked the penny idea for the spikes.

@daveshear 3 года назад

Thank you for your incredible reviews! It's been amazing to see you grow and develop with your presentations/reviews. I certainly would love to win these!

@lbudt29 3 года назад

I just got an Emotiva amp and these will go nicely with that. Nice show guys.

@emmet7208 3 года назад

I never have experienced KEF's point source type uniQ speakers, what better way to do so than for an entire HT set up to appear on your doorstep! What a great giveaway! For most if not all of us viewers it would take many years to assemble a complete, high end system like this. If I win I would need to upgrade my 20+ year old receiver with an Atmos enabled unit. Good luck to all and keep up the great content guys!

@laowho 3 года назад

Great video discussing many of the placement of speakers to bring out the cinematic experience. That coupled with great speakers make for a good video.

@eric503 3 года назад

The information about the Q50a Dolby Atmos speakers was very useful. I had no idea they could be mounted on the wall.

@jimkoch5295 3 года назад

Love KEFs. I have pretty good surround now but this system would be significant upgrade. Keep up the good work!

@martinfox2244 3 года назад

I have always wanted a surround sound system. KEF speakers to boot! What an offer!!!

@Booster_Golden_Cobra 3 года назад

Every time I had a question pop up you guys managed to answer each one. Specifically the room size because I have a smaller apartment. Thanks for the video guys!

@paulbrown354 3 года назад

My first speakers over $100 were the Q100 s, still use them for my TV setup and love them.

@dunmerican 3 года назад

Remodeling my basement now this would be a dream to have. Kef has always been near the top of my wish list.

@jeffley 3 года назад

Great tutorial. That Nad and those Kef’s would be great in my room.

@astertm99 3 года назад

I always thought rear surround and Amos speaker quality really doesn't matter as they are mostly for ambience and effects. Well that's until I played an SACD on my surround sound system. My rear surrounds really lacking dynamics and musicality. Now I can imagine how useful these awesome KEF's could be for high quality surround/Atmos music reproduction at home!! Best of both worlds !!

@TNPFan 3 года назад

Have always enjoyed the KEF sound and hope to “surround” myself with it. 🔊

@cakootstra6206 3 года назад

These look like great value. Will need to give them a closer look. Great review.

@mahimahoo9178 3 года назад

I like how well the center matches

@MeBarnson 3 года назад

I set up Buchardt speakers at my parents home and watching a movie in stereo is already amazingly good. Would love to listen to a proper surround sound system like this one.

@brianr.9732 3 года назад

The Uni-Q design with the tangerine waveguide is amazing for getting uniform sound throughout a room! I'm not surprised that @NBTStudio was wowed by their performance and ability to blend together. Nothing beats getting well matched speakers in every location of a surround setup. Good luck to everyone!!! #Uni-Q #KEF #KillingIt

@Bazerk666 3 года назад

The way KEF design these speakers makes them a great choice for rooms not really suited to Home Theatre. Thanks for an enjoyable video. Maybe we could have some more set up videos in the future.

@audiointern2699 3 года назад

Great video guys! I didn’t know that the center channel should be at ear level. I always had it lower or higher and I like your set-up. I like the NAD for your set-up and I always wondered what my NAD would sound like with speakers other than the Magnepan’s that Jay sold me. This is a must see video if you are setting up an Atmos system!

@efrencasintahan4887 3 года назад

never had the chance to heard KEF in person but i always like the looks.. many forums had norhing buy good reviews on this speaker and its own patent design.. wish i had one haha

@alchristensen5420 3 года назад

@rigorhead01 3 года назад

The music in your video sounds really great, especially the low end .

@Boss-wy2ch 3 года назад

I've owned this set up but have Q950 fronts and Q350 rears with x2 SVS subs for about 3yrs now and can hand on heart say its sensational. Lucky person that wins this will be happy for along time. One thing I would like to say/add is that IMO the KEF Q series fronts are a fantastic stereo speaker too. I use these as my 2ch speakers through my integrated amp in the same room and again don't have much intention of change. I thought Jay might have touched on the fact the speakers work as well in 2ch as they do multi - of course unless you dont rate them for 2ch listening Jay? Actually I purchased the KEF speakers after reading and watching reviews on the fronts for 2ch and how well they sounded. I went and auditioned and was suitably impressed so it seemed logical for a multi purpose type room to then add the rest of the package in for when I watch movies but initially it was as a 2ch speaker that brought me across them. Great review on the set up. One tip I found worked well is for the Dolby Atmos up-firing speakers after the Audyssey calibration finished I found them to be a little underwhelming so I bumped them up a few DB and it made all the difference. Cheers,

@don7294 3 года назад

Thanks so much for sharing with those of us who dream of having a system like this! Well done!!

@LiamMartinTutorials 3 года назад

Not had chance to sample the sound yet but KEF's industrial design is superb! There whole stack is gorgeous, top to bottom. Best of British.

@abrslam 3 года назад

I love the look of the wood grain finish. This video really has me wondering if I should be investing in hifi, or home theatre (I've only got one space for entertainment). Food for thought definitely!

@sama7545 3 года назад

That’s some great amplification. I think that’s my next step. My current AVR is just ok.

@aperez301 3 года назад

Have always loved Kef but never owned them. Great respect for the company and the design. Thanks for the opportunity!

@perandersson3356 3 года назад

From a recovered hifi addict this would be a nice upgrade - keep up the good work - looking forward to see your take on the new Tekton's

@prabinpaudel5572 3 года назад

Kef is a company that is defined as a perfect amalgamation of form and function. And still provide value for money. My dream Setup is Ls50 wireless and kc62 sub at the present moment. And am saving up for it. But a complete kef home theater system would be mind blowing.

@dimitrihn 3 года назад

KEF speakers are amazing (sound and design) . I have a pair of Q150 in black. Definitely would like to try those atmos modules.

@kmvuniverse 3 года назад

kef design game is just spectacularly astonishing, I've been opportuned to listen to a kef speaker"was a pretty old kef speaker" it was a game changer for me, and till date it's still the best pair of speakers I've listened to"haven't listened to so many good speakers tho lol",and I absolutely agree with every kef speakers review I've watched on RU-vid, anything for a good soothing sound, especially now that' is offer for free? Mehn I've taken all the steps listed out,and I hope I win this, love from Nigeria..
