Worthwhile upgrade from Kef Eggs to Monitor Audio WT280?

[paulrae]

I've recently moved house and I'm thinking about upgrading my speakers. I've currently got a set of Kef eggs and have loved the sound they produce. Only downside is they don't look great mounted on the wall.

I'm thinking about changing them to something a little less intusive. Does anyone have any experinece with Monitor Audio WT280's? They seem to look good but I cant really find any reviews on them?

Anyone have experience of these or have any other suggestions?

Thanks

I'm buying WT280-IDC (3-way speakers) instead of WT280 (2-way speakers) for my new house, to be installed towards the end of December. Will be able to give a review then.

Excellent, would love to get your feedback once you've had them installed.

I think you replied to my other thread too - had a bit of feature creep on the tv side of things, thinking of getting a Panasonce TX-58AX802B now. Going to demo one later in the week

Will get that sorted then i want to start looking at a projector for xmas....

Check my thoughts on the TV shootout I attended few months ago; this might help you:

Thanks - some good feedback. I did like the Samsungs when i saw them, the worry is the input lag on games. Seems to be no perfect TV that ticks all the boxes at the moment. The Pansonic may be the closest - just need to see it in person. Doesn't seem to be much else for around the £2k price range.

Sony has the best input lag amongst all current TVs

True, I did take a look at the Sony KD-55X8505B but the blacks on it looked a bit washed out picture looked a little smeary at times. I was hoping the Panasonic would be better overall.

If you're planning on a projector, you may wish to go for a mid range TV and spend more on a projector.

I'm buying a Sony HW40ES projector in December.
