The first thing is the sound! And the look is great, of course! This speaker looks amazing. The build quality is top-notch.
No
These speakers play amazingly and the build quality is above reproach. The cabinet is lacquered and everything is flawless.
Clear sound Excellent cabinet
Price is enough high
Pros +Clear, refined, expressive sound +Excellent build and finish Cons - This pair need a 4-ohm amplifier if you're planning to use them in the large room. - And the price is just a steal. The R3 Meta are very attractive speakers, both in design and features. I can now hear separate delicate instruments in each track. The high frequencies are bright enough that I can appreciate the high tones of a violin. The mid frequencies are also correct to enjoy the vocals. Bass is a accurate gentle push without a lilting sound.
The sound is bright and detailed, excellent bass. The case is very well dumped corps without the slightest prize.
They lose in the appearance of my Aria 906 in varnish. The case looks like a plastic one, but taking in your hands, you immediately understand how well the engineers have worked on them. Acoustics are very weighty for their size. There are no protective grills.
I took on a replacement for Focal Aria 906 without prior listening, I am based on a lot of laudatory reviews on the Internet, including “authoritative publications”. In my focals, I lacked the bass and I wanted more expressive than the middle. The sound of Kef is very expressive, detailed, transparent, with excellent bass and wide scene, but not mine. At the volume of about 3/4 from the maximum, the sound of the top becomes too sonorous and “unnatural”, for my taste. I probably got used to the velvety high Aria. Once again, acoustics are very good and detailed, but it needs to be listened to yourself. I will have to give it to the parents.
