Dammit. You guys keep pushing me to purchase these! What do you think about the bass? Pretty accurate/textured? -
I'll give more detailed info in a few days,cause i have only had them for 4 days! I let them run on music at moderate levels all day while i'm gone at work! But, so far i messed with the bass/treble/speaker level for awhile,and the bass is good! Not Wow,but good! Keep in mind i just replaced a set of RT2000i's with these! The RT2000i's had built in powered subs,and i dont have a seperate sub! But I might put the RT2000i's in the back of the room and see how they sound together! Bass is Quick and sharp,however the rest of the speaker shines in ways i've never heard before! Truly stunning!"Everything I ever did in my life worthwhile I caught hell for"

Way to go Bob!!!! I know you're really enjoying yourself. That combo of Q900's/600 is something to be reckoned with for sure. From looking at the pic, one suggestion would be to lower the Q600 as much as possible. You want to try to keep the distance of the tweeters of the L/R/C to be within 18" in height of each other. And if you're handy, building a stand for the TV & to also place the Q600 inside would really make a big difference. That would get you really close to the 18" distance between all the tweeters. Also if the room (and wife allow :razz:) move the Q900's a tad further apart & out enough to clear the TV stand. You'll notice another hugh impact on the sound. Just a suggestion. But the room looks great as is. Remember it's all about the sound & speaker placement is the biggest factor in maximizing ultimate results. You think they sound good now...play around with placement & you'll be skocked at the difference you'll experience.

Thanx Guys! After looking at my pic on this thread,it seems more imminent that i need to lower that center channel! Todays project!"Everything I ever did in my life worthwhile I caught hell for"

Those KEF's are sure pretty.

Heres todays project! Bought a wall mount for the tv to alow me to put the center under the tv! Didnt get any listening yet,but i will! Excited to see if i notice a difference! Looks alot better too!

That's looks better. I actualy liked the sound of my center up off the stand. I mounted my TV a little higher on the wall so in the near future i can have all the tweeters in front at the same height. I sent you a picture.
-
You are killin me with kef, they have made some awesome speaks.
It is absolutely true about the tiniest placement change making such a difference, sometimes it can almost sound like a different set of speakers in a different room.
BTW, what a perfect rainbow reflection from your flashhumpty dumpty was pushed -
