I just ordered the Q150 yesterday since Best Buy had them on sale. This will be my first ever pair of KEFs - for my desktop setup, to replace some older PSB Alpha B bookshelves. They're fairly deep. I hope they don't look too out of place on my desk. The Uni-Q driver array should be good for nearfield listening.

They're way different than the late 80s/early 90s version. That had a soft dome tweeter and no cage. The driver was absolutely independent of the tweeter although I'm not sure what it looks like under the cage of the newer version.
