Indeed!
If more audiophiles took the time to build a pair of loudspeakers, the listening vs measuring question will get put to rest.

Good point.
What a shame they couldn't properly support their customers who spent £600 - $1000 on the X300A wireless when they were still under warranty but still persisted to sell you some more expensive speakers. There are still customers with these speakers which were working and being sold on the market after their end of life. The problem was they never made the software work properly and just left customers high and dry with broken software and expensive brick paperweights. I am sure I will not be the only one who never buys a KEF product again. There are many others out there. To leave a product without proper support and not be able to repair them after end of life just shows how much KEF care about poor customer and product support.
I wouldn't call these new KEFs for loudspeakers!? Call them rather for computer designed sounding furniture

You can keep your speakers that are overpriced and measure poorly, KEF offers competitive pricing at every level, and an excellent eye towards marrying objective measurement results with excellent in room listening experiences. Not to mention they are designed aesthetically beautifully.
