The R3's are 4 years old.  Got them just prior to Meta's coming out.  They come with grilles, but most people prefer leaving them off.  I like having them on for that "just in case" protection.

Thanks!  Just never saw R3’s with grills.  How old are they?  Just curious.

Yes, original KEF R3.

robellison

I believe those are Kef R3, or Kef R3 Meta

KEF R 3’s are awesome but not shown.  

What are the speakers shown with grills?

Beautiful real world system that doesn't require a second mortgage!  Nicely matched components.  Well done!
