What do you guys think ? ** as in my room size 15 x 15 Subwoofer also, to go for same brand ie KEF speaker to pair with KEF subwoofer or B&W with B&W subwoofer.... nicer blend of sound as same brand... If you looking at MK Subwoofer... might as well consider their speaker package and take complete set..... This post has been edited by scsoo: Jan 1 2012, 10:54 PM |

i heard from a topic in whathifi's forum, an owner of Q500 took more than 1 month to run in the speakers. he mentioned initially the treble sounded harsh and midrange was blurry. after run in, everything was perfect! i'm curious to get Q500 but looks rather small for a floorstander. i wonder who's the bass like... deep enough?

If you looking at MK Subwoofer... might as well consider their speaker package and take complete set..... anyway, this is OT. sorry lightning. |

I would agree if we are going with dedicated subwoofer from velo, sunfire, svs or rymik. I am just giving the opinion to match brand for simplicity as bringing too much brand into the mix can be confusing.... prefer to keep it simple unless to all the sifu here that have "years" of experience.. (that this with a hint of humour) this would not be an issue but to a newbie this could be too much...anyway, this is OT. sorry lightning. Anyway, OT again... let get back to KEF and speakers.... Happy listeining to my XQ bookshelf.... superb mid, with nice treble extention and bass... oklah.. bookshelf bass cannot compare to floorstand so need subwoofer to support... also KEF subwoofer.. me being brand specific again.... |

QUOTE(hoss @ Jan 1 2012, 11:17 PM) yaya mistake. only 10ft MK Sub does have flatter response all up to the 100hz+ zone because they're supposedly to be integrated into their satellite speakers series.Added on January 1, 2012, 11:22 pm cannot mix and match ? bcos B&W base more stronger while KEF more clearer.

Many claimed the clean punch line of the sub itself hence you may consider one but be warned of its pricing is more premium than others. |
