I tested them in my living room yesterday with the option to directly switch between both. Should have done that sooner. With the better acoustics, better placement and the A/B comparison options I can actually appreciate the genelecs. I don't think the difference is worth 4x the price of the...

Since my last post I've used the KH80 and 8331 for music and gaming and had a few more intense comparison sessions. Now the deadline for returning one of the pairs is approaching and I still can't decide. Both have higher noise floor than I would like. The KH80 also didn't increase their hiss...

I currently have the KH80 here for testing. After calibration with MA1 they have significantly increased hiss. I have them connected via XLR to the Analog Out 1+2 of a RME MadiFace XT. On the backplate the input gain is set to -15dB and the output level switch is set to 100dB SPL. But I believe...

Great Idea, will do that, thanks! The only thing missing compared to stereo would be the width, depth and precision of the soundstage and I think I can properly take notes of that to compare it. Probably. Though it would not really be a novelty. I have read a thesis comparing different driver...

@Timcognito I think I'm missing something. How does that help me to integrate my subs? The ARC Studio only has 2 outputs. I would need a dedicated output for each sub. Or is the idea to buy two of those and feed both with Y-cables with the same input? One for subs, one for sats? With two, the...

I have a working SPL meter now and can confirm my previous numbers. Around 50dB(A) for typical listening and 70dB(A) for loud listening. The KH80 have 90 dB SPL with THD < 0,5%, so I have ~20dB headroom. They also happen to be about -19dB @40Hz, so I could theoretically EQ them to be flat to...

I don't really understand. If I place the sub behind the monitor, why do I need clearance underneath the monitor? Or do you mean to mount the subwoofer to a monitor arm? My issue is rather the opposite, I currently use a monitor arm which blocks more of the space a sub would use than a stand...

While the iloud mtm do measure pretty good, I've read that they have poor soundstage and sound compressed. Though that was for the MKI, so maybe I should order the MKII and compare them. If I go with KH80 + Sub, is there any reason beside the MA1 to choose the KH750 over something cheaper? I do...

I could use some input on choosing a desktop sound system for my cramped home office setup. I'm sitting in the corner of a very small room (2.6m x 3.3m = 8.58m²) and have something like an oversized floating shelf above me, so the effective room height at the listening position is 1.5m. Not a...
