I wonder what he means by open and balanced

Studio monitors. 1.37 meters.A great question. Very close.
I have KH150's and KH310's but do not use them with my KH750 sub.
What will you use them for? Studio monitors? What type of music? How far away is your listening position?
Yeah, no clue on the more "open" comment.From a different forum

Ok. That is the same for me. Given that you want to use two KH750's with them, I would guess ..... I really do not know. I do not want to give you advice when I simply do not know. I am not sure if there is anyone on here who has used 150's with 750's.Studio monitors. 1.37 meters.
Yes, if you don't want to compromise KH 150's output levels.Is it really an obligation to have to take two subwoofers?
4 subs is even more recommendedThank you very much for your answer.
Good to know.
On the other hand, it is the first time that I hear that it is recommended to put two.
Usually, the use of one subwoofer is sufficient.

Which sound is bigger? I mean, have you compare an orchestra? For example?Depends on room size and your budget. On the smaller side the R3 are a good start at as good price for their performance.

KEF R3 Speaker Review
This is a review and detailed measurements of the KEF R3 stand-mount (bookshelf) speaker. It is on kind loan from a member who sent a pair to me at great cost (they come two in a box). The R3 costs US $1,999 for a pair. The R3 is an example of superb industrial design by KEF: It oozes...www.audiosciencereview.com
Notice these are passive speakers.
If this is the size however you are looking for, I personally would go with the KH150 as it includes the possibility of Room EQ (with MA1).
For the living room I have KEF Reference 3 plus 2 x KEF KF92. For the Office the Neumann KH80 plus KH750.
Hey! Im not an expert so take my answer with a grain of salt, but I have a similar sized room to you. Also, treated pretty well. From what I've learned, listening position is everything in a small room. Not being able to get into the proper listening position because your monitors are too big is definetly a good reason to buy a small monitor (really the only reason to buy a smaller monitor that I can think of). Have you tried getting a better listening position? I know for me and my room, I have to be closer than 1.4 meters to get into the proper position. That might be something to try out first.hello everyone. I am new to the forum and i just read this thread and I have a question. I currently own the 310's setup in a small room 3x4x2.3m. The room is treated pretty well. My listening distance is about 1.4 meters. I do think i have the best listening position and the speakers are positioned according to neumann's manual. I do love the sound of neumann but somehow i cannot get really comfortable with the 310's. Is my room too small for the kh 310's ? I was considering switching to something smaller because of their woofer size and maybe because of the 3 way in my room. Would a kh 150 work better ?
Would that be because you need less distance from the speaker or something else?In regards to the KH 150's vs 310's I do think the 150s would be better because they are smaller, and would give you more flexibilty in terms of listening position.
