  Thanks for another breakdown video. &nbsp;Adds a lot to the usual sound impressions I seen on other channels. &nbsp;Keep up the good work and rock on!

  That&apos;s interesting. &nbsp;Makes the Q350 a screaming good buy right now as KEF is practically giving them away to make room for the Meta. &nbsp; &nbsp;Seems to me the substantial price difference isn&apos;t really warranted in this case. &nbsp;It also goes along with what I am hearing about the Concerto vs the R3 Meta. &nbsp;A lot of people are preferring the Concerto over the Meta because it sounds a bit more lively and has a different bass response. &nbsp; Again it seems to make the Concerto the better buy, since sound is quite similar and the price difference is substantial there as well.

  Happy New Year! Thank you for this review! Wow, what an eye opener, interesting to see what manufacturers do or dont do behind the scenes. So called upgrading to increase the price. Dont get me wrong, I love my Kef Q150&apos;s, but i will think long and hard when i go to &quot;upgrade&quot;- not blindly jumping on the hyped bandwagon.

  Good comparison. Now let’s see what your Hot Roded crossovers do! 👍🏻🔈

  I really enjoy this teardown/comparison video ! Since the Q350 was pretty well received, it was obvious for the company to just use the same cabinet with a slightly updated crossover and driver. It was wise and safe for the company to not invest more money in R&amp;D, but I am still a little puzzle about the use of polyfill or lack thereof. The &apos;old wisdom&apos; about cabinet design was to put damping material on one side of the cabinet when the other one facing it was parallel to avoid echoes and resonnances. I certainly would like to see what it does to the frequency response when one is modified compared to one that isn&apos;t. Thanks for the video!

  Excellent video! Rare to see a reviewer being honest and unbiased. You deserve more subscribers! Any plans to compare the Q1 meta vs q150 , q650c vs q6 meta or q950 vs q11meta?

  Maybe if you switch the speakers position between them or try to test them in the same spot so they can have the same distances between them you would hear differently. You increase the midbass response on the 2 closest and you get different imaging and sounstage because of positioning changing slightly the frequency response.This inner and outer speaker position test it&apos;s not the best ,they need to be exactly in the same spot to be more objective.
