Thanks Jon & John - the KEFs do look seriously nice, and I did see them when they first went up, but I thought they'd probably be too big for my room. More food for thought though, ta - the laugh of New Year was that I was actually down South near you for New Year and if I'd known I could have taxi-serviced at least part of the way for your relatives! Oh well! I'l have a think about the speakers.

John - the link to Superfi for the Opus 3 says discontinued? Certainly doesn't have a price on the page? Wonder if you are getting a cachéd view on your pooter?
