    Default Experience working with KEF B139???

    Hello,

    (I don´t know how many times I´ve done this-asking you for advice in new projects-Hope I´m contributing some in return from time to time)

    Now, I´m planning to get my next-next speaker project from ambition to plans, and that is a full-KEF 3-way (B139/B110/T27). The reason for my posting today is that the "missing link", a nice pair of B139 is on sale at swedish Ebay this night.

    There is quite a lot of technical info on the drivers and systems on the web but not much about the SQ and other "soft" qualities of the B139 and the proper way to work with them.

    My humble question is if you older (!) and wiser (!!) people has any advice to share
    • Should I walk away from KEF B139?
    • Is CB or VB preferred?
    • XO-design? Difficult?
    • How does it sound?



    Best regards//lasse

    PS The RFL-MGC project moves-components on the way for volume control and fans. DS

    You'll get more replies on design/thoughts in the TechTalk forum, as this is the Gallery.
