      Yes also need a good receiver

        You also need a good Amp

        • Volution on 24/12/2019 - 10:53

          I wish my amp could power this. It's ok, baby steps first. Upgrade AVR, 2xmonoblock and then these speakers.

          Why do you need a good amp? A good receiver will do the job just fine.

            @skian:

            Why do you need a good amp?

            If you really want the best out of it for music.

            You will also need a good SACD Player.

            • skian on 24/12/2019 - 12:50

              @superforever: Fair enough, my main usage is movies so I use a Yamaha receiver (I do not own these speakers for the record).

          • jparse on 24/12/2019 - 13:52

            @skian: You need a good source, pre-amp, power amp, interconnects, power conditioner and good room placement.

          • whorishmouth on 24/12/2019 - 16:08

            @skian: Wrong…found out the hard way. Flagship model Sony ES receiver (whilst some years old) wasn't capable of driving my 200W towers properly. Needed a separate amp…went with Emotiva Gen3. Better source, pre-amps etc well that's another story

              @whorishmouth: Wrong for you, but not for me. My receiver drives my system just fine.
              I'm driving 15 year old Jamo's though, they were still made in Denmark back then.

              • ozhunter68 on 24/12/2019 - 21:53

                @skian: "skian" If your running this receiver then it's a beast and better output than many amps lol.

                    @skian: Don't be too excited by the seemingly impressive "rated output power". How often do you listen to 230W of mono 1kHz sine wave at 10% THD?

                    @Poperdobs: Cheers. I used to spend a lot of money years ago on sound gear after visiting hifi shows in Melbourne and hitting those fancy upmarket stores around the city.

                    My budget nowadays is now very small and humble lol.

      • ozhunter68 on 24/12/2019 - 21:55

        "Just bought 2" ? Is that two pairs then ?

    • alvian on 25/12/2019 - 00:10

      After the speakers were delivered, can you share with us photos of the packaging? I am very curious as to what kind of and how much material Amazon would use to pad and ship a pair of speakers weighing 41.2 kg and 0.17 m³ in volume.

  • [Deactivated] on 24/12/2019 - 10:45

    What is the returns policy on this?

  • puppetmaster on 24/12/2019 - 11:03

    Surprised Amazon listing these speakers as a single item.
    These are meant to be sold as pairs.

    • RNDM on 24/12/2019 - 11:06

      Some opt to use floor standing speakers as center channels also.

        Don't forget to position it vertically smack bang in front of the screen. Got to admire your hard earn purchase while your watch rubbish movies.

            • alvian on 24/12/2019 - 23:45

              @thebadmachine: It should have been "while you watch rubbish movies". Unfortunately only mods can edit locked comments and by the time I spotted the misspelt word it was already too late.

              Usually I don't make these kinds of silly mistakes, but I swiped that comment on my phone left-handed while I ate lunch, and I didn't review it afterwards.

              Merry Christmas to all!

  • Jeckbox on 24/12/2019 - 11:39

    Wow very good price. Im was looking at the klipsch rf for my home theatre. Which is better? Kef q950 or klipsch rf-7 iii?

    • atish digitalcinema on 24/12/2019 - 11:42
      +4

      The KEF Q950 is a warm speaker and probably not in the same catergory as the RF-7 which are very bright. Which amp do you have?

      • Jeckbox on 24/12/2019 - 11:47
        +1

        I have the Denon x4500h. Im tempted to get these instead of the rf7 iii because its around half the price for a pair

        • atish digitalcinema on 24/12/2019 - 11:51
          +2

          Kef would probably be the better choice with the 4500

          • elli0t on 25/12/2019 - 10:22

            @atish digitalcinema: Would a Yamaha RX-V1085 be a good match with the Q950's?
            I'd be looking to get a Q250c centre as the Q650c is too big for my setup.
            Wondering if the Q750's would be a better choice/pairing?

      • capslock janitor on 24/12/2019 - 17:37

        what's this warm and 'bright'?

        • DeToxin on 24/12/2019 - 22:21

          I would guess that 'warm' speakers would integrate the lows, mids and highs evenly while 'bright' speakers might emphasise the mids and highs a little more..? Someone might be able to chime in with an educated answer though

          • Jeckbox on 25/12/2019 - 10:26

            @DeToxin: Interesting. I would like to know more about warm and bright sounds as well. IVe always thought these words was only used to describe lighting

            • xoom on 25/12/2019 - 11:46

              @Jeckbox: Well I been seeing these studio monitors for sale. When i click the link expecting monitors. I see bloody speakers. So I guess much the same.

    plus less drama with warranty i suppose

    The deal is not the cheapest available

    Cheaper here - KEF Q950 Black or White Floorstanding Speakers $1,950 a Pair Delivered @ Digital Cinema

    Better warranty and backed by an actual store, not a box mover.

    • cute as duck on 24/12/2019 - 12:30

      After SB cashback Amazon ends up being $1928.07, cheaper than that store. Plus the guy who works in that store is a psycho and has gone off people in OzBargain in the past and has awful (sometimes comical) negative reviews on Google Reviews.

      Have a read through the way he interacted with a bunch of people in this deal: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/479360

      I'd go with Amazon, at least you don't have to deal with someone like that if you have to lodge warranty claims.
