kef 104/2 or Thiel 2.3


Anyone give advice on which speaker is better, or would work better in my 13x16 livingroom.I have not heard ethier speaker.But narrowed in down to these two.Kef's seem to be less expensive probably due to there age.Any light on the subject would help.Regards Mluthier.

Those 104/2's are pretty awesome sounding speakers for the money. If you can find them on the cheap, I'd recommend them. Check on the age though, make sure the surrounds etc haven't detoriated with age. Also, didn't they make a small electronic crossover for those? It may have been the next model up, anyway, that little box made a difference in the bottom end. Went between the pre and amp or in a tape loop.
You're all kidding, right?

Mluthier - You don't mention the associated gear, so I can't say that I'd recommend them for your system...But the Thiel 2.3s are a MUCH better speaker.

Am I missing something here?
I prefer Thiels, but respect Kef. If you like Kef you might like Vandersteen.
