My Yamaha Kef set-up.

I always enjoy looking at the wonderful systems on this forum so here's mine,the Paradigm sub sitting on the right does not work hence it making a nice stand for the Pioneer blu-ray player to sit on,cheers.

Looks good. I saw the picture before I read your comment and was all ready to suggest you move the BDP!

Thanks ,yeah i thought i'd best state that otherwise i'd have my wrist slapped on this forum.... the sub blew when i plugged the kettle end of the lead in, second to it already being plugged into the mains....Very Clever!!!!

Have you experimented moving your centre speaker forward? I would expect you get a bit of reflection off the glass - have you tried moving it forward to be level with the front of the rack? Might not look quite as nice, but may sound better.

The centre is directly in line with the fronts and TV which i thougth would keep the dialogue in synch....never occurred to me about reflection etc....i shall have a little experiment when home alone...thanks for tip.

Superb looking setup, its just how id like mine to look eventually when i move to a bigger place. Reference to moving the center speaker, it would still be in sync with the fronts if you adjust the settings on the amp. My Onkyo does it in steps of 20cm, worth checking it out and itl re-adjust the timing for the center speaker, or just run calibration alllll over again. How far away is the listening position, im surprised the left and right channels aren't toed in slightly.

Looks gorgeous, must sound wonderful, and 100% respect for showing Kraftwerk on the Telly, how does that sound over the system? My personal Fav from the set is the Man machine remix, although I also adore the Neon Lights version as well.

What make is the TV I can't quite make it out?

Well done and thanks for the pics

Cheers,yeah i'm going to move the centre and see if it sounds any better,as for the fronts i don't want to toe them in as the side walls are close by and the rear ports might cause a problem with bass etc,the Kef's aren't shy when it comes to low end clout and don't think it'll help by toe'ing them in slighty but may give it a go anyway.

Thanks.

Thanks theo

Yeah Kraftwerk sounds excellent in DTS and is probably the best standard DVD i've heard,turn up 'Radioactivity' & 'Electrokardiogram' and the system sounds great.

Even better in terms of audio quality are the 'Depeche Mode' discs in DTS 5.1, 24bit-96khz,the 'Violator' album in surround sound is fantastic,i've not heard better.

The TV is a Panasonic TX-P42G10b.

Cheers.

Thanks for reply, i had the Kef iq2c also which was very good but got the upgrade bug and had to have the bigger centre,very pleased with it....the neighbours shall be on holiday next week and can't wait to turn that volume right up and give the system a proper blast..your spot-on about the bass,i feel like i got a racing car that i can't get out of 1st gear due to someone telling me to turn it down all the time..yet her shouting is always louder
