Too bad they are mainly for consoles. And have digital output, I don't think my Audigy1 can use them. icon_cry.gif

Actually, can anyone sound proficient tell me if these are usable on a an SB Audigy1 @ 5.1 Surround Sound? If you can tell met hese will work with some explanation, then I will get them... I think they are very sleek and would love to make these a a nice fixture on my workstation.

Any help? anyone? icon_biggrin.gif

I would have loved to get them!!!

rofl! you get what you pay for right?

remember that with speakers... looks DON'T count. It's all about the qaulity of SOUND

last time I checked, my eyes could not hear and my ears could not see

but the Kef's still LOOK amazing. The Klipsh stuff is all gimmick on looks. nothing functional abou that. I bet they ripped off the Kef design internally though

ROFL!!! 13,500USD EACH!! icon_eek.gif

for that money I would rather have the Kef's Refernce Series

At only 12,000 USD a piece, they are a real "bargain"

Specs....

A true five-way design, the 207 is instantly recognisable by the cast aluminium pod, which is shaped to minimize diffraction and to damp the internal sound field of the upper midrange section of KEF’s new generation UNI-Q driver array.

Beneath the state-of-the-art elliptical profile titanium Hypertweeter, a bonded Uni-Form cone/surround provides the optimum waveguide for the 25mm (1”) titanium dome HF unit leading to exceptional vocal clarity.

The lower midrange driver is derived from the LF unit, KEF’s lightweight neodymium magnet assembly allowing it to be effectively decoupled from the cabinet to improve imaging and integration whilst minimising colouration. The reflex-loaded bass enclosures are differentially tuned to give the optimum combination of bass extension and punch.

With a combined cone area equivalent to a single 375mm (15”) cone, and separately loaded into individual direct radiator sub-enclosures, the 250mm (10”) bass drivers deliver staggering bass extention of exceptional purity.

Incredibly lucid over an expansive sound stage, with no discernible distortion - whatever sounds you’re into, this is a supremely musical performer.

theres nuttin like dyi.....just get raw drivers, and make your enclosures(you gotta know what you;re doing though) and make your crossovers(you really gotta know what your;e doing)

with crossover design alone, you can make a $100 set of speakers and tweeters sound liek they;re worth 500 icon_twisted.gif
