Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great sound quality and precission for the vocals compared with my svs center used earlier. Good vocal positioning for all listeners in room.

This is well on its way to being a surprise MVP in our recent upgrade. We purchased this in hopes that it would be well matched to our equally new R3 Metas. We did very very well in this regard. I would recommend this speaker to *anyone* given its clarity (consider the intended use and importance in dialogue, particularly, with movies). I'm a know-nothing with regard to audiophile terms and equipment, of course, but I *think* that the KEF Uni-Q driver serves it very well here. I would therefore caution anyone planning its purchase to mount it carefully to height - as I did, exhaustingly, both to listener and with the R3's we got - or to take time to aim it well. I am a slightly hearing impaired veteran and this is opening up the front soundstage again for me. I'm just not sure what higher regard or qualification to hand to you for this speaker: it is making things clear again. I'm just not sure how much it's involved musically as I have not been playing SACD, DVD-A or similar sources yet. But for the primary function of a Center channel speaker, this R2 absolutely excels.

The sound quality is excellent. The only con is size, its big and you have to make room for size and weight but for the quality of the sound this model puts out, we will accommodate!

I had the KEF Q Series center channel for about a week and decided that it was muddy to my ear. I now have the KEF R2 Meta and it is way worth the price. Smaller than the Q Series LCR, the R2 Meta is way more crisp and clear. Conversation sounds like conversation. Now just to be clear, this will not clean up bad source; but, it will make it clearer. If the source is good, this makes it even better and easy to hear. Oh, I forgot to mention, I do have a hearing impairment so I am very sensitive to nuisances in sound. This unit is well worth the money.

Very pleased, this center channel is well worth it, I have this and some R5 Meta speakers in a medium-sized room, sound is phenomenal, very clear and tight, it is an exceptional quality piece of equipment.

Excelente center speaker nice dialogue and good for music too if you looking for a nice dialogue center speaker this is the option I been trying a lot of center speaker and no one work like this kef

Great center channel, ideal for movie watchers with great surround sound.
