I bought a pair of these Kef Q350 speakers and they are fantastic! The first thing I noticed from these speakers when I tested them was the warm sound that they produce. It's far less bright than a few other bookshelf speakers competing in this category. The next thing I noticed was the wide soundstage. It is detailed and full sounding. So much so that you could close your eyes and not know exactly where the source of the sound is coming from. When listening from an angle of 45 degs or more the Kef Q350 speakers keep a lot of the detailed quality and volume that most speakers in this category would lose well before this pair. I bought these speakers at $709. RRP in every store that sells these was usually $1,195. The front grilles came free with the order. So in total my savings were around $550AUD. At the price that Appliances Online had this beautiful pair of Kef Q350 bookshelf speakers, there was no a chance that I could turn down the opportunity that was presented to me. Now they sit either side of my turntable.
