Hi All,
So i purchased these speakers just prior to Xmas having read the various rave reviews.
I've not been very impressed so far, got a couple of issues, KEF support initially were very helpful but have now gone dark.
I was hoping to find someone else with these speakers who might be able to clarify a couple of things for me.
- Bluetooth, i'm finding a large amount of interference in the left side speaker both during pairing and playback, it's much less noticeable from the right and exists no matter the placement. IE, if i swap them round it's still the speaker labelled L rather than physically the one on the left, (Moved round the whole house to check). I've also tried pairing them to multiple alternate devices to the same effect. Because of this interference it's un-listenable (if that's a word) over the bluetooth connection.
It's probably worth noting that there is little to no interference on my cheap Sony bluetooth headphones.
- Audible hiss on all inputs whether sound is playing or not, it's not noticeable at high volumes but at normal listening volume (they are used as desk speakers) it's clearly noticeable.
I basically wanted to confirm that no-one else was experiencing similar issues before commencing the warranty process. Of course if anyone has any alternative testing ideas then give me a shout.
Thanks in advance.
