[QUOTE="skinnyfat, post: 49"] No problem, Having your chain janked is alright now and again :mrgreen: I am aware of that 'problem' but I dont necessarily regard it as a weakness. Let me explain. Most floor standers (there are exceptions) have a freq. range somewhere between 35 Hz and 20 Khz. If you have a sub woofer, which I would reccomend for home cinema, they typically have a freq. response range somewhere between 20 Hz (or lower) to about 200 Hz (again there are exceptions). Depending on your room size, shape and acoustics, the crossover setting on your AV amp/processor will be somewhere between 60Hz and 150 Hz. Mine is crossed over at 80 Hz as I found this gives me the best integration. Although the 80Hz crossover is not a dead stop for the floor standers and an immediate takeover for the sub, its a more gradual changeover, the floorstanders will roll-off around 80-100 Hz and the sub starts to take over. My point being this, the sub is doing the LF work, thats why I bought it, and my mains are able to concentrate on the lower mid range and up (which the kefs are amongst the best IMHO). The whole scenario changes of course if you dont have/want a sub :D Anyway after all that its just my opinion and as they say, opinions are like a%$holes,... everyones got one :D :mrgreen: Skinny [/QUOTE]
