By writing listening distances like 3m you write yourself why this is not really interesting for the market as you go to midfield monitors.Ok
Im just bummed that if they were 8 inch you could probably use than from 3m away (if you add a sub) and 7 inch is borderline on that SPL wise
Basically I want the ultimate 2-way to be used as "mains" that doesn't break the bank and its close to that.
Maybe the Genelec S360 is closer to that (10 inch woofer btw) but expensive
Also a classic 8" two-way might give enough SPL but due to its directivity is still not recommended for 3 meters, you see how small the differences are between the 8330, 8340 and 8350:
The S360 uses a horn tweeter so it can be crossed lower and like you say is a different price class. By the way a modern hightech 6,5" driver like the Purify can beat many 8" distortion wise so I would wait for the measurements of the KH 150.
If you care just about high SPL and directivity for large listening distances for a lower budget I would recommend looking rather at some good PA loudspeakers.
