Zero must be happy with the view count so far!!!!

a bit off topic.. but why is none of you "guys" have done a proper review of the Carver 275 tube amp...I mean no one has anywhere???

@@reserva120 most likely due to Carver not having a loan/lease model to send out to us for a reviewer trust me if they did a lot of reviewers would love to review that tube amp ! Sean will tell ya the same 😃 that carver does look B.A. !

Hi Sean . I have a b&w pv1d matched to hegel h190 paired with b&W 706S2 . The sub adds subtle bass to the presentation without being dominant. I thought I got ripped off by buying this sub as I could have bought a svs sub. But now looking back I made the right decision . The opposing drivers of the sub cancel out any distortion so the bass is clear and fast. Works beautifully. The hegel amp is just pure muscle its so clean sounding . It's a beautiful match to my system. I use tidal to listen to music and use hegels dac. All I need is the amp speakers and sub. Do a review on the hegel. You will end up buying one. Trust me. The musical fidelity has nothing on the hegel. I am a hegel convert! The amp is designed and made in norway

Hi Sean, Would love to see you try out M&K Sound S300 or S150 speakers and X12 or X10 Subwoofer.

Check out the British Audiophile.

100% agree

Yep, Sean can cram the most insights in the least amount of time. Well done!

Agreed, but even better is listening to him, jay, Steve, and Andrew all discuss the same product and pull your info from where they all meet.

I've had song 1 from that album stuck in my head all day today lol

Thanks!

Have you noticed 11Hz extension above 85 decibels now that you are using 2?

I have it with the KEF LS50 Wireless 2 and it is awesome. The LS50w2 stops putting out the low bass when you hook up the sub and it makes the mid and high range sound even more awesome than the speakers do on their own (even though they are awesome without the sub).

@@Old-Man-MTB such a shame I got so much stuff I need to get... Maybe Christmas present for myself. Mind you the room I got is 6sqm in total so very small office in relative term so not sure if they will do such a impact.

Do you have any tips to optimize the sound of Q300's? I'm afraid to push them hard using 100 RMS WPC amp.

Congrats on the new speakers!

He made me want those model 5s so bad, i think about them everyday now. What are your impressions sir?

@@robk5745 Here are my impressions that I posted in the comments of the review video: "So...I took delivery of these speakers late yesterday. I've probably only got about 10 hours or so on them, but I can see what Sean was so excited about. You don't want to stop listening! I'm going through endless playlists right now, and it's a beautiful day outside...I really need to get out! Before these I was listening to Tekton Impact Monitors, so I was really intrigued by Sean's comparison to the Double Impact. The Tektons are more neutral, and I'd agree that they are a little cleaner in the midrange, but these Model 5's are fun, fun, fun! Something about the way they're voiced makes everything I've tried so far very enjoyable to listen to. I love the mahogany finish, in part because it talks to the reddish wood trim and floor in my listening room, and the standard grills look great to me. I've found the middle setting on the "acoustic balance switch" to work best for me on most music. The build quality on these is fantastic, including the stands. The binding posts are beautiful and look to be high quality. I don't really know how to explain the sound of these. This is definitely a toe tapping and head bobbing speaker. I've caught myself doing that a lot, and even jumping up to dance once in awhile. I can't remember the last time I did that with my Tektons. Don't get me wrong, the Impact Monitors are great and I'm keeping them for now, but I'm really enjoying the KLH's. Many thanks to Sean for this review. I've found that my taste in speakers tend to align with his, and he has a real gift for explaining the sound of a speaker, at least for me. Forgot to mention, I'm driving these with a VTV Purifi-based power amp and a Pro-Ject Pre-Box S2 DAC/Preamp."

@@sadge9697 you’re a good man, thank you! A pair of tekton double impacts is also something I’ve always wanted to hear! Happy listening.

thanks for sharing. I'm torn between 2x T5x against 1 KC and I think I'm going for the KC!

@@itamarkas I have the T5x (1) and thinking of selling and getting this sub. T5 Rel can't keep up with my Wilsons.

Completely different driver technology in the KF92. Not as advanced at the KC62.

@@ayokay123 are you saying the KF92' doesn't perform as well? Thx

Kindly do everything ❤️ the best of the

Let you have

It's nice! I'm in the south, so my area typically blossoms a good 2-3 weeks before DC. I just wish it would last longer!

I had the 2nd generation T-Zero. Nice little sub. Granted, the KC62 makes it sound like a tiny child at a playground in most regards BUT... as you note, the lil T-Zero's speed is something else. It's also a lot less money.

I have a small listening room (11x13 ft), was thinking to get two Rel T Zero's They seem a great little sub, particularly as I'm not a big bass head. Do you think that makes sense over say one KC62 (if cost is not an issue)? Thanks.

@@marcfoss7687 no amount of REL T zeros will give equal bass to this KC62. If you want a nicely integrated fast sub to add on to your bookshelfs etc then it's a good step up. Any speakers bigger will not gain much benefit from t zero

@@Joe-io2yj Thanks for the reply. I plan to purchase a pair of small but good quality standmounted bookshelfs so think that two REL T zeros would probably be the best match. I am really concerned about boomy base issues in my small listening room so I figure it might be better to avoid too much lower end...

Thanks! That's the 40th Anniversary Comet.

@@ZeroFidelity Really psyched for your thoughts on that one! 😁

I'd fire off an e-mail to KEF or read through the manual to see if its possible. I never asked.

Not in my experience.

Aw man. I haven't listened to that album in awhile. Time to go out and find it again!

i feel sorry for any man who’s married to their “mother”...🤦🏻🤦🏻🤦🏻

If your wife can’t accept large subwoofers, you don’t need new subwoofer but a new wife 🧐

@@HaraldMacGerhard Ouch. :)

It seems people need their partner's approval before acquiring gear. it's a concept I've never been able to understand.

@@tteeydoc1 I don’t …. I try to get through my partner’s wish for Sonus Faber Aida speakers in a small flat, first of all I can’t afford the speakers my partner wants and second, they are even too large for my taste 🤣 I try to level these things out by aquiring 4 subwoofers, no protest there 😎

Bruh. I felt the same way when I learned that.

Only at shows. Particularly the AK Swarm. It's a nice concept that works out insanely well when setup the right way. As for one KEF and a couple lesser subs, its something that could work. However, at this point you're just mixing and matching with completely different products and hoping that it works out. The Swarm is precisely engineered to work hand-in-hand with each low frequency device in the system, which is partly why it works so well. So I think if you're wanting to go this route and you want to do it right, you'll likely have to go with whats proven to work.

@@ZeroFidelity Thanks...yea I'm working my way through exploring this and am afraid that the AK is too many bigger boxes for the WAF...So I at least want to figure out the smallest form factor that might get the job done and try some stuff out...thanks Sean

Thanks Matthew. Honestly - I'd consider saving up for some Harbeths if you know you'll be listening at low volumes on a regular basis. Particularly Compact 7 Anniversaries or a used set of Monitor 30's. I *really* like both the KLH Model 5 and the Polk R500's, but both of those products need just a bit of volume to 'come alive'.

@@ZeroFidelity thanks man!

@@ZeroFidelity not P3ESR's tho?

I genuinely have no idea. A good question for KEF!

Thx I know my wife would love it the size and looks but the price oooft!! The new rel X series is just coming out think it’s £200 cheaper then the Kef but bigger. Thx for the great review. Two rels t7i v the kef very interesting 👍🏻👍🏻

@@martinsweeney9976 im thinking of getting a rel tx7 or tx9 or the kef, in medium sized room Have you heard any compariosons from people?
