  • KEF's Jack Oclee-Brown (Head of Acoustics) and John Atkinson (Editor, Stereophile) discuss the KEF Q150 bookshelf speaker in John's listening room. Filmed in Brooklyn, NY in July 2017.
    The context for the discussion was Herb Reichert's review of the KEF Q350 bookshelf speaker ($649.99/pair), which is published in our March 2018 issue. At the time, however, we were under the impression that Herb was going to receive a pair of less-expensive Q150s for review, which is why Jack and John refer to that model rather than the '350.

    What a bunch of snobs in the comment section lol you cant always control interview locations. Hes right though you do get 90% of the LS50 with the Q150, and for $299 now. Thanks Jack!

    By the way, the cat doesn't seem that interested in compression drivers for some reason.... what a strange cat.

    Hi, I'm looking for a closed box alignment 3 way powered speaker and there is none for sale on amazon. I saw yesterday the youtube video ' outrageous audio speaker box design ' and since then I really don't know why all lowend and highend speakers are all ported design ??? Only the NHT classic 3 use a closed box but it cost too much as it don't include digital amplification and crossover and dac inputs ??? Their 3 way passive crossover cost more to manufacture than a fully featured digital amplifier.

    • @FSXgta
      @FSXgta 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      A Br ported is very efficient. With closed you will need alot more power for the same amount of bass

      Actually the NHT Super one is a sealed design and cheaper and warmer Sounding than the Classic Three

    best bang for the buck speakers are the Q100 and Q500 the 100 has known to be better than a lot of kefs that are larger front ported with large soundstage easy placement Kef does best with their 5.25 inch speaker that's where all their technology has been anything larger well not as much as RD involved

    KEF Q150 or ELAC Debut 2.0 B5.2? Anyone listened to them both side by side? Thanks.

    For an audio focused channel, why have a cat scratching next to a mic for the majority of the interview?

      I'd have to compare them with elac debut at that price.

      @@scottlowell493 I would say they compare to the Uni-Fi UB5. I had them both. KEF's do need a sub IMO

      I totally get it.
      I've had animals all my life. I'm currently the host (unintentionally) to a 20-ish member feral colony. More than one of those thinks it's the 'alpha'.

    FIX THE\IS VIDEO'S SOUND!
    You're chatting about speakers & the knowledge of making
    Q150 and yet the video sound is weak & icky.
    Whatta' turn off.
