Before the arrival of the Q300...on the front is a picture of my old and trusty B&W DM602, and my brother-in-law's Paradigm Monitor 9.

I am wondering if this Q300 is a bright or warm speaker?
I assume it is on the bright side. Pls correct if I am wrong. |

Q300 is even warmer than Mordaunt Short Mezzo series. Lightning 69, I see some photos frames on top of PC12plus, are they able to hold their ground when the sub kick-in?? |

QUOTE(lightning69 @ Dec 15 2011, 12:41 AM) Maybe its due to the placement? Its at the corner of the room and if facing forward will have bad first point reflection maybe?To me Bookshelf have flexibility of placement and not that space consuming... It can be tuck in everywhere and not so bulky.... Only issue is Bass but nowadays with Sub-woofer this seem to be a matter of the past. Floorstand visually is arresting.. but sometime in our small kampung house where got place to put big big floorstand speaker.... |

Soft dome tweeter generally sounds warmer.Q300 is even warmer than Mordaunt Short Mezzo series. Lightning 69, I see some photos frames on top of PC12plus, are they able to hold their ground when the sub kick-in?? Yes, its a photo frame on top of the PC-12Plus. Its paper type and it does fall off all the time. |

I am looking for one to complement my pioneer lx53, mainly for HIFI stereo. Any good speaker to recommend? Is Q300 a good match?Yes, its a photo frame on top of the PC-12Plus.

Av amp not really suited for hifi stereo, get both a dedicated stereo amp and speakers. It is a world of difference.

Congrats and welcome to the KEF family. Hope you're leaving the Q300 naked only for the photoshoot .... last thing we'd want is for dust accumulation on the Uni-Q drivers.
Curious about the matching with the centre speaker. |
