Owner Comments: I used this center in concert with the matching Kef floor standing speakers (203/2 reference) and the sound was excellent. I am only parting with this speaker in order to switch back to a stereo 2-channel setup. Buyer will be receiving a phenomenal piece of equipment that is truly reference quality.

• "With this new Reference series, we have resurrected this philosophy and updated it. The 205 gets all of the detail right(by right, I mean it knows what to do with that detail which is to present it in a musically accurate manner)."

• "Secondly, the high-gloss cherry wood finish immediately blew me away. That fine traditional British craftsmanship and design are evident in every aspect of the Reference, from the conservative yet elegant shape to fit and finish. The veneer appears seamless and is carefully hand-crafted in a mirror finish."
