Just to add. System matching and tuning according to room and gears are important too.

Vince, PM me if you looking for spkrs.

There are many more better systems out there. When you are into this hobby long enough and know those elite high-end groups, you will realize that our systems are nothing.

Ain't sifu. Just that I was given the privy to audition many systems. It is really eyes-opening experience. As you get to listen more, you will realise the gap between them and you. What is truly high-end system and its capability.

Some of them used to read postings in lowyat but now very seldom.

We can roughly judge one's experience by his post.

Tan has to remember that his system is much more powerful than before.

I seldom breach the MV -10 mark. I read klimal talking about TC in his FB. Good audio and so scary that he never felt this sense of frightening since childhood. A friend is bringing this movie to me.

Or go to Acoustique Systems in Amcorp or Desa HT for Yamaha.

AFAIK Acoustique Systems is Tier A dealer for Yamaha. So, definitely good price.

Generally speaking, the Brit spkrs tend to lean towards warm sounding while Americans are more forward and dynamic. So, it boils down to what you like.

The KEF no longer hold its house sound that it used to have. Now, it is more forward sounding (i.e. less warm).

Bookshelf's limitation is at lower freq due to the lack of woofer (bass). However, it normally has better midrange clarity. It will not sound small if the placement is correct. It will only sound not as full / complete as a floorstanding spkr due to its inability to produce lower frequency.

Some people prefer bookshelf spkrs for their music because of the midrange. Some prefer to have complete spectrum of the music; big floorstander. The only catch is to get a good amp to drive the floorstanders to its maximum potential.

Here is the explanation of ported and sealed sub :
