QUOTE(radovantz @ Oct 28 2013, 01:43 PM) Diamond DFS speaker is not that cheap, if you have enough space, I suggest you pick bookshelf type. It sounds better than DFS at same cost, or lower. IMO, looks (DFS) matter.

QUOTE(Topet @ May 3 2013, 11:39 PM) I still think diamond 9.1 is better than 10.1...its just my own preferences...unfortunately sold my 9.1 to make way for another set of speaker. but if i encounter any cheap diamond 9.1 i surely will buy it again to make a stereo setup. hehe, i got luck this week. able to get a pair of tip-top condition 9.1 back! finally i'm able to compare the sound side by side, for music i like the 9.1, for movie 10.1 a tad better. conclusion: i like 9.1 more. 10.1 will be better if room treatment is done (mostly bass problem).

Got myself a pair of Diamond 155 floorstanders & Vardus VR-C2 center couple of weeks back~ It's used to replace my trusty JBL SCS180.5 satelite speakers & I must say the difference is clearly noticable

i never have a chance to have audition on kef speakers. hope it brings the sound you like. i agree that subwoofer is the most poisonous equipment to play with, upgrades never end

Sorry for the bump. I auditioned the 10.2 with Marantz 5007 at Desa and i really liked it. Was quoted 1,100 and 2,299 for speakers and amp.
I did not try the 122 and was curious wat would be the price ? Anyone can share on the difference in terms of sound?

That's all for now as I slowly build up my system. It would be paired with a Pioneer LX57....... That day saw 10.7, it is smaller than I expected... About size of KEF Q700 or smaller... something like that. I think Q900 will looks better at home. Btw, I am planning to let go my 10.2 because been upgraded to MA RX2 for sometime... Its been idling... Condition easily 8.5 /10 as only use for one year plus before I upgraded into RX2 last year.
