Customers are saying

Customers appreciate the Q150 Series 5.25" 2-Way Bookshelf Speakers (Pair) for their amazing sound quality and impressively wide soundstage. The speakers are also praised for their beautiful, clean, and modern design, as well as their incredible imaging and impressive size. However, some customers have noted that the speakers require significant power to perform optimally.

    Pretty awesome speakers. I had these for almost two years now and I have since upgraded to the LS50 Metas. The single driver just means you can sit anywhere and it will still sound amazing, which was especially convenient for my setup at the time. It goes on sale often, so I would recommend you buy it when its around 300 USD.

    Purchased these as front speakers for our surround sound. They are clear and sound great playing music as well as tv audio. No they don’t sound like thousand dollar speakers but they are excellent sounding speakers for their price point.

    I got this for the sale price of $300. Paired it with a Cambridge AXR100 which is a 2-channel amp with 100w per channel and a sub out. Connected it to a powered sub and Oh boy it’s like a dream!

    Got these for half off ($300). They don’t sound anything like a $3000 speaker so get that out of your mind right now. The bass is present and the treble is very good. I got them cause it was a great deal and will use them for my Sirius in house setup. For that they are fine. They do sound fine the louder you play them. The bass comes on very goo and it just sounds much more than a tiny bookshelf speaker should. Get em half off and enjoy them in a lot of situations.

    First set of KEF speakers. They don't disappoint. Needed something great for my vinyl listening pleasure. Pairs well with the Marantz SR5015 and REL HT 1205 sub and audio-technica turntable. Crisp and clean!

    Bought these to utilize the ideal analog sound quality of vinyl. Amazing sound and bass. I only use them with the Pure Direct setting on my amp so can’t vouch for their sound on different settings.

    These speakers sound fantastic! I have these on my dresser in my 12’x16’ bedroom on an AVR pushing 60w/ch and they absolutely fill the space. They are very clear, and the sound staging makes it seem like the sound is coming right from the TV.

    I had originally purchased a kef kc62 and wanted a pair of speakers to compliment it. The q150s provide a taste of high quality audio at a reasonable price.

    **avoid buying Open Box** and Best Buy

    The KEF q150 speakers are great, but don’t bother buying them from Best Buy - “Open Box”. I purchased them while they were on sale for $350 as they typically are, but Best Buy had them listed in ‘open box excellent condition’ (like new) for $250 so I bought them. Their website states these are Geek Squad checked and reset to factory condition and appear / function same as new. However, when I received them, they had scratches all over them, which would’ve put these under “Fair Condition” showing plenty signs of use. I contacted Best Buy to resolve the situation since the open-box prices were raised while mine were still in shipment, making the “Excellent Condition” pair now costing $331 while New cost $350. Of course, after speaking with numerous Best Buy customer service reps, their only answer was for me to return them and buy another set regardless of the fact that they now cost $80 more and I shouldn’t have to pay for their mistake. I was either sent the wrong grade box by mistake or Best Buy carelessly graded these wrong knowing the condition they were in and chose to mislead customers. The fact that Best Buy didn’t even offer to replace them at the same price point that I paid, less than 24hrs after I received them, due to their mistake, has completely soured my view of the company itself. Again, The KEF q150’s are excellent, especially at their sale price point… just buy them somewhere else.

    Perfect for complementing a good tv. Better than even a good sound bar. Driving it with a NAD316. Tunable bass port helps balance the sound to your setup. Excellent buy especially for the price.

    Purchased this set during the Holidays. First impressions nice looking speaker. They are replacing speakers that are 14 years old so they have work to do. I chose them based on reviews and the looks. The speakers are stand mounted ear level with slight tow in about 6 feet apart. First impressions the sound stage and depth. The speaker creates a wide sound stage with good instument seperation. In room bass response in huge for a small speaker. They are not to bright wich I like as you can always EQ them. I listen in pure direct mode via a Denon receiver. I like them so much I purchased a single unit for my center channel and a Kef subwoofer. The price has since dropped so buy them now! The only negative is you have to buy the grills separately and you need a good 70 watts amp to get the best out of them.

    "I'm really enjoying the KEF Q150 speakers. The Uni-Q driver lives up to its reputation, delivering an impressively wide soundstage. I can hear clear, crisp audio even when I'm in another room, a testament to the speakers' excellent sound projection. Placing them about 24 inches from the wall helps control the bass, preventing it from getting too boomy while still maintaining a rich, full sound. The sleek, minimalistic design adds a touch of modern elegance to any space, and the build quality feels solid and premium. Whether for music, movies, or other media, these speakers perform brilliantly."
