Hi Everyone,
I was in local dealer's shop yesterday and ended up bringing home a pair of the fairly recently released KEF R5s.
I'm looking to get a bit more bass than I'm currently experiencing with my Dynaudio 40s.
Not sure what of make of the KEFs. They look good but not sure, despite their size, that they are giving much more bass then the Dynaudios.
There's not a huge amount on the web about them in terms of reviews (What hifi gave them 4 stars but a bit of a lukewarm reception really - they prefer the stand mounts).
My room is 4m by 3m and they are on the 4m wall. Amp is Gato 250.
Listening to them now at low volume and they do sound good.
Have the Dynaudios in the same room but (carefully) swapping between the two takes a few seconds so its difficult to judge differences.
Don't want to get a sub which has been suggested to me.
Thoughts?
