Aronesss: In just a few hours you nailed it. I have lived a year with Kensington SE and your short description is so right: they do not draw attention to themselves, they have an organic and wonderful midrange; emtionally involving. And the bass is very dynamic and makes listening fun. And their only shortcoming, and I will say it is just slightly so, is their not "extremely extended treble."

For my part I have found the speakers for life. Kensington is bettered by the bigger Tannoys, but they demand a bigger room than I have. I think there is some magic with this model, with allnico and pepperpot horn, that Prestige models under it do not have (Glenair, Sandringham etc), especially in microdynamics, voices and an organic presentation of music. This last point is connected with music being presented as a "Gestalt".

This is just my subjective impressions, so take it as it is. However, I am impressed that you Aronss nailed the signature of Kensington on just one audition.
