KEF KHT-3005 review

 

intro Cutting-edge sound and style almost never converge on a single speaker design, and when they do, they're almost always accompanied by exorbitant prices and gargantuan proportions. The sleek little guys rarely sound as good as they look, which is...

KEF KHT-3005 Home Theater Speakers Review and Prices

 

Form meets function, and the two embrace in the 3005 series speakers from KEF. Designated as the KHT-3005, this futuristic-looking 5.1 system resembles a tasteful, yet playful speaker system that would look right at home in Mork from Ork's home (ask...

Beautiful design, tight bass, plays loud

Simplistic subwoofer connections, somewhat directional, limiting speaker terminals

Go with the intergalactic flow. Crime in New York gets more and more bizarre. The other day, someone broke into my apartment and redesigned my speakers. I'm not sure if our local burglars are capable of this. No, the KEF KHT 3005 is clearly the product...

Expert review by : What Hi-Fi? (whathifi.com)

KEF KHT3005 HD2 review

 

Impeccably built and finished, but sound lacks brio

Impeccably built and finished ; usefully compact subwoofer ; expansive, poised sound

Not the fastest, most dynamic or most attacking sound on the market

All the usual KEF virtues undermined only slightly by a relative lack of brio

KEF KHT3005SE review

 

Great performance, looks and build, but after two years at the top, the KEF now faces some tough competition

A seamless surround field combined with a direct and focused centre channel ; deep, refined, weighty and powerful sound will fill even large rooms

Occasional touch of tubbiness to the bass ; not quite as fast or agile as the B&W MT-25s

It's back to £1000 and back to five stars, but the '3005SE might not be the no-brainer choice it once was

KEF's stunningly styled egg-shaped speaker package, the KHT-3005, boasts audiophile-quality sound for music and impressive home-theatre performance.

Compact, beautifully designed speaker package ; Solid aluminum satellites ; Unique driver technology produces incredible clarity ; Dual 10-inch, 250-watt powered subwoofer delivers ultradeep bass

Finicky setup required to produce best sound

So what are the KEF KHT-3005's limitations? Well, compared to a set of much larger speakers, they just don't offer the same volume capability, dynamic range, and home-theatre impact. Higher-end full-size speaker packages simply play louder and deliver...
