Stereophile's John Atkinson has given some unusually strong praise to flagship floorstander in the KEF Reference line, the KEF Reference 207/2.

 

Normally I don't link to equipment reviews as they are so abundant and equipment evaluation is entirely subjective. Steophile's editor John Atkinson has heard a loudspeaker or two in his day, and when I saw last week's review of the KEF Reference 207/2 on Stereophile's website, it piqued my interest. In the review John states the KEF Reference 207/2 is "overall the best-sounding full-range speaker I have used in my current listening room", which is extraordinary praise considering the number of loudspeakers John has evaluated over the years.

 

Sounds to me like the 207/2 deserves a spot on everyone's audition list, and those of us fortunate enough to be able to plunk down $20,000 on a pair of loudspeakers should take special notice.
