[net.audio] KEF 105.4

As part of my recently concluded speaker hunt, I auditioned (and did NOT buy)
the 105.4's.  While they are a good speaker, their $1800/pr list price is a
bit steep for what you get.
Personally, I'd recommend either Snell C's (for about 1500/pr) or JSE 1's
(which I think are an absolute bargain at 900/pr) instead.  I A/B'd the JSE's
with the 105.4's at Harvey's in NYC and the JSE's blew the KEF's out of the
water - their stereo imaging was far superior.
Keep in mind that I am from the N.E. school of flat frequency response and
like to listen primarily to classical music.
