KEF's least expensive line, the iQ series, includes five two-channel models starting at $300/pair. (There are also iQ center and surround models.) I chose the top of the line, the iQ9, a floorstander retailing for $1200/pair.

Kef Coda III

The oldest model on this list, the KEF Coda 3 originally featured in What Hi-Fi?way back in 1985. At just £99, the Codas were a serious bargain and although they didn’t feature KEF’s trademark Uni-Q driver, they still managed to impress. We noted their “excellent stereo imagery” and “clean, controlled and well-extended bass”, as well as their tende

Kef 105/3

The 105/3 (pictured above, middle) were clever speakers that combined a couple of different KEF technologies. The company's trademark Uni-Q driver was present, but it was also joined by what KEF referred to as its coupled-cavity bass loading tech, which had two drive units actually firing within the speaker’s cabinet. Bass frequencies would then em

Kef Coda 7

In the mid 1990s, the budget speaker market place was a tough place to be. Mission had a stranglehold and were proving difficult to beat. Enter the Coda 7, KEF’s brave attempt to wrestle back some of that market share. Their 30cm cabinets used an upside-down driver layout with a 13cm coated paper bass driver sat above a 25mm soft dome tweeter. Not

Kef Q35

Small and compact floorstanders have a certain charm and this was definitely the case with the diminutive KEF Q35, which debuted in 1997. They weren’t keen on being cranked to the max, but if the quality of your recordings was up to scratch, the KEFs were capable of delivering one of the most realistic sonic experiences available at their £349 pric

Kef Cresta 2

The Coda 7 were always going to be a tough act to follow, but KEF managed to maintain its lofty standards with the arrival of its new Cresta 2 standmounters. At 37cm high, they were relatively tall for budget standmounters and this extra size was reflected in the exceptional sense of scale and openness. Like the Coda 7, the Cresta 2 used a simple 2

Kef KHT2005

If you want a home cinema icon, then look no further than the KHT2005 from 2001. Affectionately known as the KEF ‘eggs’, this sub/sat system offered not only performance in spades, but a serious dose of style too. The cast aluminium, egg-shaped satellites looked the business and were a welcome distraction from more traditional-looking boxy alternat

Kef Reference Model 203

KEF completely revamped its flagship Reference range of loudspeakers in 2001. The Reference 3 were four-way baby towers that boasted beautiful curved cabinets, and a time-aligned tweeter sat on top of a Uni-Q driver. The configuration of the speaker meant KEF had five separate drivers to integrate, yet the 203 still managed to produce a “beautifull

Kef Iq5se

The Q35 evolved over the years and 2007 saw the launch of the iQ5SE variant, which battled it out with the truly exceptional Monitor Audio BR5 and B&W 685speakers. Like its ancestors, the iQ35SEs were a compact and attractive pair of hugely talented floorstanders. The speakers majored in speed and punch and combined this impressive rhythmic accurac

Kef LS50

In 2013, to mark KEF’s 50th anniversary, the company celebrated by launching the LS50 standmounters. They weren’t a high-end, mega-money pair of loudspeakers, but they still made quite the impression, blowing the competition out of the water and receiving a glowing five-star review for their troubles. The LS50 boasted striking looks and saw KEF use

Kef Reference 1

The price tag might be high but the Reference 1 are worth every penny – you won't find a better bookshelf speaker in KEF's entire stable. They're a shining (and shiny) example of KEF's high-end engineering at its best, and set a benchmark that few rivals can match. They look stunning in the flesh, with beautifully finished cabinets that you bolt on
