$300 is criminal for 4" woofers. R line is never worth it, always opt for RP line.

I went with Revel M16s for $300 a pair instead.

The R-40PM speakers, on the other hand, are powered/active speakers.
Revel is high quality though, and is definitely a great choice.

Are the Kef Q1 Metas even good? Heard the that whole line was overrated.

For music, the KEF Q series won't be as neutral and nice as those Revels of course, but for movies/TV they'd be ok.
However, considering how cheaply one can get a quality mini-amp for these days, there is no reason to take the risk of an active speaker's built in amp dying on you after a few years leaving you with a pair of expensive doorstops, as opposed to easily changing out the mini-amp.
Example: mini-amp with high pass filter, $72 https://a.co/d/09MFJPEQ
More basic mini-amp w/o the HPF, $45 with coupon: https://a.co/d/0gN5RuB1
