I personally don't think that we need to use a centre speaker for centre.  Any speakers can be centre speaker. If a speaker is good enough for the main, it sure is good enough for centre duty.  Just my opinion.

I do agree with u on some point, all LCR must at least have the same signature to produce the best sound output but i am sure a center itself has it's own characteristics and are made for certain dedicated purposes compare to speakers, i am no pro to point them out but i am sure they are build for it's reason.

here my KEF speakers
Got the speakers couple days ago. Plug into LX75 and play a wonderful sound. Those speaker are clear, solid sounds and wide stages. No matter where you stand you can hear the sound almost the same every spot. The speaker can hear for whole day without feeling fatigue and sound can be heard like from far deep stages.  At night when quite you can play Yanni music in low vol and it feel so nice and relax. You can almost can hear all instrument they used. Watched few movies Real Steel, Rise of planet of Apes etc.. sound feel good especially the voice are very clear. Play radio also wonderful...

Very nice, next what u need is a 100 inch screen and a projector to suite up with your Q700 wide soundstage efforts. Then your HT experience will be on another level.
Auditioned the Q700 and pair with Q200c on a 86' projection display, love the feel man. No regrets on the KEF Q series

The last time I check, KL is more expensive than Penang.  Good luck finding your Q300.

Btw, anyone want to share a Q300 for centre?

You plan to get a Q300 for your center?

hi guy,

want to ask is it ok if i can mix the kef q300 front speaker with my psb c1 center speaker which later on i plan to change to Kef q200 center speaker.

Thanks
*
Yea you may mix both but u might not get the best outcome cause if you ask everyone here, they will tell u to go for same brand and signature for front LCR.
Just go ahead and use what u have. Perhaps some minor tweaks may help and enjoy them. Cheers

i mean if i dont use kef as my center and will my kef front speaker which is different brand and signature match with my current psb center speaker that i worry it might be have some kind of side effect during movie playback.

Thanks

Perhaps the details and sound quality may be different compare u use all KEFa, side effect wise, won't harm your equipment unless u blast all night at -1/ 0db.
Try it and u will know the outcome.

hi guy,

For KEFQ300 Front is the below chord cables best suited for it? Thanks

Chord Carnival SilverScreen Biwire Speaker Cable
- Plugs Banana Only - 2 to 4 (6 Plugs)
*
What AVR are you using? If is Onkyo, it's more to the bright side.
You can try cables from Audioquest.
From my setup, i am now using QED Evo XT on my Q300 to a Denon 1912, so far so good for movies but when play music using multi chanel mode, it is bright though.

so with denon 3311 and Chord Carnival SilverScreen Biwire Speaker Cable wii be too bright for music correct?

Thanks

I would strongly advice you go for an audition for cable testing. Denon suppose to execute warm sounds as it is so very hard to give u a solid answer.
Perhaps u can PM DannyOP, he owns a 3311 before and he had some experience on apkrs cables test. Perhaps he can give u some info. Cheers
