Can the sub also be facing something, or should there be free space in front of it like with regular speakers? I don’t mean being flush towards something, but maybe 20cm away or something like that?

Here’s how the speakers are angled.

Yeah, I know, but I also know some people are unable to take any advice as anything other than an insult 😅 I do love the speakers and couldn’t believe it when I saw that you can get them for 600€ a pair now! Especially since I got the sub added. I didn’t even notice it when I first started...

Ah, I some how missed it from Al’s comment, but yeah, I wasn’t sure of that so it’s definitely something I will at least try then. And also I fear the single speaker on top of the tv looks weird, but maybe I’ll hang my ice hockey goalie masks to accompany it 😅 I’m luckily old enough so I don’t...

1. I might find a place for it next to my sofa. I did buy a cable long enough to take it there. But would it affect music listening if the bass comes from a different direction entirely? 2. Then I could go back to the stands, yes. I can’t use any more floor space than in the picture, or even on...

You’re the first one to say I should’ve used a dedicated center speaker! Everyone everywhere rails on you if you use everything else than the already existing model 😂 But, I actually almost did, but my local shop couldn’t deliver the KEF R2C so I went with this. And of course the price was an...

I had the pair on their individual stands, but to make room for the sub I had to mount them on the wall and as this is not a load bearing wall it was quite picky where you can mount them, next step wider and they would’ve been on constant collision course. I made sure the speakers are low enough...

Thanks! I’m not very knowledgeable about this hifi stuff yet, but the third ls50 and the SVS SB-1000 did wonders for watching movies. Watched new Star Wars movie last night, and oh my god, couldn’t have hoped for a better result! I’ve had the pair for about 6 years, only bought the third and the...

I told them I can buy it if they give me a nice price, but obviously it’s better for them to ship it from Finland to Germany and restock it 🤷‍♂️ But, for ~300€ a piece these older models aren’t bad speakers…

Well, for me my life isn’t yet settled down to a ”end location”, so I’ll go with this for now, but as I don’t know where I’m living next year, I don’t know how my setup will look like then 😊 All I know is, Star Wars theme sounded pretty great!

I thought I accidentally deleted this thread! But I ordered one, but they accidentally shipped two, so I do, but I don’t 😅 Why? I’m shipping it back, because they wanted me to pay more for 1+1 in the same box than they sell a pair, figure that one out.

I accidentally deleted my first thread where I discussed my idea for a 3.1 system. But here it is, with speakers mounted upside down 😅 It would be better if the side speakers would be a little bit wider, but the space and wall structure set some challenges.

Yes, even if I switch the plugs, it eats a little more space (but I think the point of balance will be safely on top of the wall mount) and then I would have different end plugs on my Qed xt40i cables. Of course I could switch all of them to forked ones, buuut, this 350€ project has ballooned to...

Might be a stupid question for you gurus, but can I mount the KEF LS50 upside down? I have the B—Tech BT77 wall mounts and the problem is that my Qed cables are so rigid that it forces the speaker too forward on the mount, so if I turn it upside down, I get several cm of direly needed extra...

Thanks!
