Anyway, what I have learnt is to certainly trust your own ears when auditioning systems, and dont let people poison you too much into higher end stuff. From my previous budget of RM 8k I have stretched it to the limit.  sad.gif  Hifi sure is an EXPENSIVE HOBBY!  tongue.gif

BTW am still open to any comments or suggestions. Pricing seem ok? Any other stuff that I should check out? Thanks guys, you have been great!  notworthy.gif

Yep, the best judgment is still your ears. 1 man's meat is another man's poison. Have you try ATC speakers? This is good too.

Anyone know how much does DENON AVR2105 receiver costs in Malaysia and a pair of KEF iQ7 speakers...

Not necessary, I owned a Wharfedale Evo 30 & juz trade-in for a ProAc Tabelette Reference 8 Signature. The Evo 30 has deeper bass but not tight enuf  sad.gif Surprisingly the ProAc monitor is not loosing much ground in bass element but is extremely detailed in sound stage. I hear a lot of instrument previously I dun get to hear.  rclxms.gif However, if U R comparing the same brand of speaker across the same series; then is quite true that in general the floorstand speaker wld perform better in most elements in particular the bass department.  smile.gif

Bro Blackjack, your previous ProAc is in diff league as compare to Evo. Even it is bookshlef, ProAc is renowned for its sound quality. That's why it is pricey. Anyway, agree with your bottom statement.

There is always a limitation on bookshelf, esp its freq response if to compare with floorstander.

Even the Quad 11L also out of the range. Diamond 9.1 is below the budget at less than RM900.

IMHO, RM1.5K for B2 is rather expensive. But, at RM860, it is a bargain!

That's the problem with 'toe in' (in other words - angle inwards). It will shrink the soundstage.

Not to mentioned that this mags aint cheap too. I usually buy it from Selvan in Sg Wang. It's half the price for the same mth issue albeit at 2nd or 3rd week of the mth.

You may try Acoustique System in Amcorp Mall. Look for Mr C. N. Lim. If you cant get the C542, do let me know. I will source for you.
