Pros

  • Center: KEF Q250c (used on eBay, minor scratches but solid condition)
  • Been piecing this together over the last year and it’s finally coming together. Super happy with how balanced it feels. • Center: KEF Q250c
  • Parent context: I hadn’t thought about upgrading the center. Maybe because this is the first I’ve ever had, I think it sounds good Reply: I hadn’t thought about upgrading the center. Maybe because this is the first I’ve ever had, I think...
  • I use it due space constructions with my 950s and I think it’s a solid 7.5-8/10.
  • Yes. In a way better value than Q650. Better keep front stage on par with eachother

Cons

  • KEF Q250c (center)
  • No, those “extra drivers” you see on the q250c are actually passive radiators, put there instead of a rear port, so there really isn’t any real difference in performance between the 150 and the 250. It’s mostly about aesthetics.
  • 2. **KEF Q250C:** 100 watts (max recommended amplifier power)
  • KEF Q250C = $400
  • My center channel is the only component giving me pause (KEF Q250C). ... But I don’t know, it seems like certain voice pitches sound noticeably worse than others on my center. ... I know the KEF 250C is budget compared to some other cent...

My center channel is the only component giving me pause (KEF Q250C). ... But I don’t know, it seems like certain voice pitches sound noticeably worse than others on my center. ... I know the KEF 250C is budget compared to some other centers, but I feel like at $480 I shouldn’t be distracted by this issue.

The Q250c was somewhat disappointing to me when I had it (with Q750 fronts)
