KEF’s pricey KHT5005.2 home cinema system
Frankly, that’s a lot to pay for a home cinema rig targeted at the
growing flat-screen TV market. Right now, less than half that price will get
you an excellent and discreet home cinema system from respected brands like
Mordaunt-Short or Mission, to name a few.
KEF says the new satellites
feature the latest generation of Uni-Q
drivers originally developed for the more expensive KHT 6000 ACE Home Theatre
Speaker System. Uni-Q is designed to produce a broader sound field from each
speaker for a more encompassing sound. The subwoofer pumps out a massive
250-watts and, usefully, can be mounted either vertically or horizontally.
Visually, the KHT5005.2 system is a design winner, with slim speakers encased in high-gloss black lacquer. But, that price tag is going to restrict its appeal to budding home cinema enthusiasts.
your comments are ludicrous - you're clearly in the dark about kef's customer base if you think we are people who would take the cheap price tag over a system of real quality - it's designed for those of us who had the foresight to buy into their sub/sat techhnology in 2001, before the likes of mordaunt short et al had chance to copy what kef did with the kht2005.
budding home cinema enthusiasts should look to the kht1005 or kht2005.2 - this system is for the daddies and it's been worth every penny of my money, and would be well worth a look if you are a seasoned enthusiast looking for better dynamics from your av setup.
ok.
