Congrat on the purchase of a full Q Series for a 5.1 Setup with Marantz 6006. Should sound super nice.
Curious, why need 100 meter of speaker wire?

Congrates. Very nice setup. Btw i am curious, you brought more then a pair of Q300? Was surprised when iook at the price at first.


Added on April 24, 2012, 3:30 pmAfter 2 days of tweaks and blind test, i would say the QED Evolution XT cables are good match with the KEFs under a Denon AVR, very refined details.

cos i told them to install for a 7.1 system.. room size is 26ft X 16ft.. so the cable has to travel a fair bit i suppose?

I only bought a pair?.. initially i thought of a 7.1 system.. but budget don't agree with me.. so stick with 5.1 but made sure the installer will pull the wiring ready for a 7.1 upgrade in the future

a simple editted floor plan from the designer..

Bro maybe our khaki here wanna use Q900 as front and shift his 500 to mid surround and move his 300 to rear aurround in future. Which i think is best setup ever for KEF system.

hi all kef q300 owner,

just wondering, which port do u connect at the back of the speaker? is it HF or LF? or mixed(HF- and LF+ or HF+ and LF-)? does it make any different between these 2 port if u just use single AVR?

I am using the bottom 2 ports for a normal +/- termination cable plugs.If your using bi-wiring,then it would make some difference on the sound quality as bi-wiring method will separate the output frequency on it's individual drivers for more detailed sounds.
Also do take note your only using it for 1 AVR,so that Q u asked a bit weird.LOL

thanks mikeyz... actually i'm quite new in this field, this is the 1st speaker i bought with 4 port at the back... i'd seen in the hifi shop which i bought the q300, they connect it to hf port, but in the manual indicate lf port for single avr, couldnt find any guide in the net, so that's why i ask it here... forgot to ask the salesguy which one is what...
one more thing, the round sponge that come together, what effect does it really make when we stuffed it inside the speaker front air hole?
tq.

How much would a Q400c cost at your place? Most KEF users i know would go for other brands for their subs cause it may give a different bass output and as for your room size, there is a few subs u can consider if your on a budget like Velodyne,Sunfire or Rythmik Audio.
Would advice u go for an audition on different subs to feel which one suite your taste.JMHO. icon_rolleyes.gif
