It might be due to the setting. In shop. I believ they do not do re-calibration for every speaker/amp setup.... no time..

Some shop like Desa, thier knowledge on sub setup is poor and wrong... But cannot blame them as well...

Wow how come u know which shop I went.

I remember I tested thier KEF C4 (cheapo sub) and sound terrible like broken sub...

Now on second thought, it is KEF after all. How could it sound that bad? sweat.gif And now I suspect is due to terrible wrong configuration. cool2.gif

yes. previously i was looking B&W 685 but my main concern was listening to music and movie. therefore, front speaker is more important for music and center is more important during movie.

and yet i found KEF has more clarity for the vocal. so, i choose KEF speaker for this.

Why not you try out other like Monitor Audio, Mordaunt Short, Whaefdale. They are all decent speakers within your budget.

To be honest, all of the speakers are pretty decent. Is just matter of personal taste. If you do like KEF by all means go with it. As long as you are happy with the sounds. smile.gif

Yamaha in Malaysia is distributed by Yamaha themselves. TEG is a reseller.

If you are into KEF, you wont go wrong with onkyo and pioneer:) they match best. But if you are into music, you should check out monitor audio with yamaha amp
