Een set mooi klinkende en net uitziende kef's iq3's. De beschermkapjes van de tweeters zijn wat ingedrukt, dat heeft geen! Invloed op het geluid. De iq3 was het model wat enorm opviel
At €65, this sits well below the 25th percentile of €131 and far under the median of €197, so it reads as a strong bargain rather than merely fair. Against the recent comparable asking-price set, you’re paying roughly one-third of the median, which is exactly the kind of gap that usually catches a seasoned buyer’s eye.
That makes it attractive because this model is a respected compact two-way: clean, coherent midrange, easy placement, and a sound that has long been liked for being musical rather than hi-fi flashy. At this price, the upside is strong if the drivers are healthy, the cabinets are tidy, and it’s a matched pair; just verify basic condition and that there’s no obvious tweeter or woofer damage before jumping.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
KEF traces its roots to 1961, when British engineer Raymond Cooke founded the company in a modest Nissen hut on the grounds of the Kent Engineering and Foundry in Maidstone, England. A former BBC engineer and Wharfedale veteran, Cooke was driven by a passion for music and a commitment to technological innovation, aiming to reproduce sound as faithfully as the original performance. From its inception, KEF pioneered materials like foil-stiffened polystyrene diaphragms and Melinex tweeters in its debut K1 loudspeaker, setting a benchmark for engineering precision that propelled the brand to early acclaim.
KEF has long specialized in loudspeakers, establishing itself as a leader with iconic innovations such as the Uni-Q coaxial driver and computer-aided design techniques that revolutionized driver and enclosure development. While drive units supplied to other manufacturers fueled its growth, the brand's core output remains high-fidelity speakers across categories like floorstanders, bookshelves, and home theater systems, including early THX-approved setups. Active wireless models and reference-grade series extend its portfolio, though it eschews amplifiers, turntables, DACs, headphones, or cables.
Renowned for its science-driven heritage, KEF occupies a premium position in the hi-fi market, blending accessible high-end performance with cutting-edge technology. Collectors prize vintage BBC monitors and Bextrene-driver classics, while modern buyers seek its precise, natural soundstaging. Decades of awards affirm KEF's status as a respected innovator, appealing to discerning audiophiles who value engineering over hype.
