KEF R500 Floorstanding HiFi Stereo Speaker Review

 

KEF's R500 floor standing speaker is the smallest of the R Series but still delivers a big sound

Superbly refined and engaging sound ; Handsome appearance ; Excellent build

Bass can be slightly overblown ; Fairly demanding of partnering equipment ; Tricky packaging

KEF R500 Floorstanding Speaker Review

Superbly refined and engaging sound ; Handsome appearance ; Excellent build

Bass can be slightly overblown ; Fairly demanding of partnering equipment ; Tricky packaging

The KEF R500 has been in place for long enough to see use in a variety of situations and with a fair amount of other equipment. In that time that have stood in my listening room attracting nothing but positive comment for their design and aesthetics....
