Not the lowest price, but pretty close. Was about to get the PSB Alpha P5 when I saw this.

Great speakers. I recommend them.
Are these really better than a pair of Google Nest Audio? Sorry if it's a dummy question..
Yes, but you need an amplifier for these speakers too.
I have these Q150 as my computer speakers with a MaiA DS amp (which has USB), along with a KEF Cube 8b subwoofer.
Yes 100%. I have mine hooked up to a MX35 Topping amp/dac which is connected to my computer. However, you could even get away with an AVR.
If your limited on budget, I suggest buying a second hand subwoofer.
The speakers will you get you almost all the way there. However, a sub is needed (particularly for rock music).
Pretty much every decent bookshelf speaker will be better than two google nest audio speakers.
Audio is wholly subjective so if you're happy with a pair of Nest Audio you've saved lots of cash. For my desktop computers I have 2.1 systems (Bose, Yamaha) and for TV viewing, home theatre 5.2 (main living) and 3.1 (secondary living). For ambient music I prefer HomePods and I'm sure there's a great alternative for Apple haters.
Wow, I had the original Q15's when released ('96 / 97 I think?), they were superb speakers back then!
these Q150's must be superbJust be aware that KEF has announced a new generation Q series with MAT: https://au.kef.com/collections/q-series. They look similar but with Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT). Yeah, I know, I have no clue what the heck that is supposed to mean.
There might be some future discounting of the existing Q series to clear existing stock. If you were looking at buying some more speakers to match your existing Q series ones you may want to think about it soon.
With all that said, this is a good price. The others were on special too but look to have sold out.
These ones don't include speaker grilles if that is important to you: https://www.amazon.com.au/dp/B07236KWSD
Got the q350s for 799. Not cheapest but still decent deal.
