HFS - well spotted mate !

I took that pic the day I installed them, and I didn't want to attach them to the stands without making sure they were all running fine.

I felt safer with the stands reversed, as what should be the top-plate is a bit smaller and the 201/2's do overhang quite a bit !!

The correct way round looks like this :

Man those are sharp looking speakers. Gives me the itch to make a change again.

Beautiful tree too, but it's probably time to take it down don't you think?

Talking of which, I feel blindingly lucky as I've just won a pair of Custom Colour 201/2s in a Kef competition - so have a pair of Gloss Whites working themselves to me very soon. Not sure where I'm going to put 'em though ?!

Better purchase another pair of those stands.

BRAVO! Absolutely gorgeous. It's so clean and sophisticated with awesome equipment. I have to say, that if I had to do it all over again, I would copy your style; however, it would probably have to be at a level more in line with my budget.

Checked out this thread a few years back and I am still amazed looking at your setup again.

I agree that Batman has been exposed. I wonder if Force is as good looking as Bruce Wayne??

The only thing I've got coming for Xmas Klwl is a pair of Snow White Reference 201/2s that I mentioned earlier. The cabinets have been built, so just waiting for the internals to go in and then to be custom coloured.

As far as gadgets go, then there's nothing I want ! As soon as the PSVita gets released in the UK then I'm gonna grab one and have it as a late Xmas pressie.

I was looking at the Sony HMZ-T1, but I might wait a while for it. It doesn't seem to pay being an early adopter these days !

Hi Phoebushvh. We got the tree about 5 years ago from a garden centre locally to us. I've never seen a similar one since unfortunately, not even in the same garden centre. Obviously that doesn't help much lol !

I see, thanks for the reply though. I have been searching for a good one but no luck around here (North Eastern US). I looked at many website but I'm a bit skeptical on whether they are going to be as good as they look in pictures.

Anyhow, I tried the Sony personal viewer and I love it. Only if it was a bit smaller for flights and things, I would have gotten it right on the spot. I'm still on the fence now though.

I couldn't have said it any better. Your home, decor, setup and equipment should be considered a point of reference.
The fact that you even looked at my setup and took time to leave a comment is pretty much an honor.

yea, I know. I start spelling as if I were a Brit when I'm around them; colour, theatre, etc. "borne" seems like the way they would spell that word, throwing in a gratuitous extra letter where none is necessary.

Lol

One doth be lucky that the one doth not speaketh like this all thine time !



Just a couple of pics of my new 201/2s in Snow White that I won in a Kef competition. Not sure what to do with them yet though ?

I think I might wait till we move somewhere with room for a home studio similar to what I used to have years back, and use these badboys as monitors.

Man those are some gorgeous speakers, that's a lucky problem to have. On a side note, how long have KEF not done the seperate super tweeter they used to use in their reference line? I haven't been around KEF speakers since they first introduced the new reference line back in 2002 or 2003. That's one thing I liked about the older Reference and XQ line. Well that and the older XQs used to come in pretty much whatever color you wanted. I used to want a pair either Ferrari red or gloss white X5s when I was into building a 2 channel system. So gorgeous.

They released the new XQ and Reference line in late 2007 I think ?

I'd love to Kevin, but unfortunately the right plot of land hasn't yet materialised to do a self build which is the only way I think I'll ever get a dedicated room.

Shoes?!? That's only for starters! Try a portable hallway shower fumigation, followed up by a table session with the on-duty body waxing technician. Gotta prevent stray hairs from standing out in sharp relief from all those smooth solid color surfaces.
