Yukon888 Posted July 19, 2022 Share Posted July 19, 2022 (edited) **SOLD** Rosewood finish. Nice clean pair. Unlike most 104/2's, these have rubber surrounds and donuts, so you won't have to worry about re-foaming. The rubber grommets that are used to mount the woofer to the frame have been replaced. These were purchased from Midwest Speakers and they are a perfect fit. The capacitors in the crossovers have been replaced with a kit from Falcon Acoustics. These are reputed to be the best capacitor kit for these speakers. The ferro fluid in the tweeters has also been replaced. All of the drivers are original. They have the original carpet spikes and the feet that go over them for hardwood floors. This is a true plug and play set of 104/2's that I'm confident will give you many years of trouble-free enjoyment. Will demo. $500 Cash or Venmo on pick up. Price is firm.

From a review: The KEF 104.2 combines many of the familiar qualities of KEF speakers�"a low degree of coloration, stable stereo imaging, a handsomely finished cabinet�"with a novel design that’s intended to provide the high efficiency needed to reproduce wide-dynamic-range program material without excessive amounts of amplifier power. The three-way columnar system features a unique bass-driver configuration consisting of two upward-firing 8-inch drivers mounted entirely within the cabinet. The drivers operate in opposite phase in separate enclosures about 18 inches apart. The air volume between them, which loads the front of the bottom driver and the back of the top driver, opens to the outside through a frontal port about 4-1/2 inches in diameter. The 104.2’s bass system operates only up to about 150 Hz, and it appears that the internal air volume works with the port size and the crossover network to optimize its performance in that range. In addition to the considerable stiffening imparted to the cabinet by its internal partitions, the frames and magnet structures of the two bass drivers are rigidly joined by what appears to be an aluminum bar about 1/2 inch in diameter. The velocity of the air pumped through the port by the two woofers is considerable, but air turbulence is minimized by a smoothly rounded plastic bezel in the port.
