Yeah, been eyeing those for awhile.
$270 shipped. Makes ya wonder if they can really match KEFs.

It'd be nice if they copied the R series midrange version.

The thing I notice is the cone and the tweeter don't quite line up as nice as the real things and then, how is that per piece. That junction is important.

That could be the angle of the photo.

6thplanet

Could be.
Side note, I've been looking at KEF stuff on eBay for years searching for a deal and the amount of damaged drivers is freaking crazy! I mean, here are these fantastic speakers costing $500+ and they have dents and creases in the cones. Like do people just not care? Do they just let their kids have a go on them? Sparring for karate on them? Use them for softball practice?
....and then they still want to sell them for top dollar!! WTH🤦🏻‍♂️

I find there is a lot of loss in respect for possessions that have some cost behind them. I don't know why, but as a kid, I remember an record/album cost some money, was well cared for and treasured because of what it was. It was a privilege to possess these tangible items.
It's no different than having a car with no dents or scratches, and someone parked next to you scars your car panel with a nice scratch or dink when they open their car door and not think about someone else's property.
I'm very careful not to hit another car with my car door, but I'm sure it's happen to most of us.

If someone buys a product, they should take care of it and keep it nice. That is just being a good owner.

For the money, I would buy these over some clones. It's also nice that you don't have any moral concerns.
