Hi all HT and Audiophile khakis out there
Here i would like to open up this thread for all KEF sound system owners to come in to share/discuss your experiences and also perhaps this would be a thread where all those who are looking forward to plunge into KEF system can get some info or advice from current owners.
I recently purchased my KEF Q300 & Q200c for my HT setup and is definitely worth every penny i had paid for.so here are some photos to share on these beautiful babes in the house.Cheers
Sorry for the poor photo quality as it was taken with my mobile phone.

Mine Q700+Q600C = 6.8k, you got RM100 cheaper. It deliver to door.

I used Belden 1311A @ 12 Gauge, order from this forum as well. They said it is more pure copper and high quality. Is copper type so less brightness compare to silver with KEF speaker.

What amp you are using?

At what position you use for your Q500?

I'm using Rythmik Subwoofer F15HP with 600 RMS, got it 5.3k.. very powerful and punching, it is seal sub so the bass was very tight and fast, really give big different in watching movies, real steel, Iron man2 etc.. wow drool.gif very good in listen to music too...

How you feel on Q700 bass? What HI-FI said is muddy? do you feel that, I didn't feel it...

Thx bro.
Onkyo = powerful amp
Kef = ez to drive even 8 ohms spkrs

Both can partnering very clear & wide sound,but need carefully for cable matching.
I audited few sets of cable b4 as below:
Wireworld Luna 5 Bi Wire,
Chord Silver Screen Bi Wire,
Audioquest CV4 Bi Wire,

Finally,i choose audioquest for more warmer sound.
No regret for these combo set. thumbup.gif thumbup.gif thumbup.gif
