I ran into an impossibly good deal on the Promedia 2.0 this morning. Ordered it and am looking forward to changing things up at my desk. I have been using a JBL Charge 4 as a computer speaker for a couple years.

Would installing a door (or French Doors), help or hinder?

We have a 60 that we sit 12 feet away from. We are thinking about bumping up to a 65 next year and moving the 60 into my den. I have Ohm Acoustic 2000s on either side with Klipsch RC 62 II in the centre. I would recommend the 65".

Just a matter of increments. Have you thought about changing the orientation of the room?

He was amazing and played with pretty much all the legends over his career.

Two feet from the back of the speaker, then adjust as necessary an inch at a time. When it is right you will hear it.

He was massive, in both his own music and his work as a producer. I stream Jazz FM (https://jazz.fm/streaming/), out of Toronto during the day at work, and they have been dipping into his robust catalogue all week long.

They look great and the project sounds well worth it.

Definitely worth snapping up when they come available.

Very interesting, I'd never considered using two large centres as a stereo pair. It would be interesting to see/hear a demo of this.

I really like the looks of these.

This is the first I've ever heard of these. Very interesting design, I would imagine they might share some characteristics with the sound stage of my Ohms. They (Ohms), are for all intents and purposes an omni directional infinite baffle.

As I mentioned, we really are in a Golden Age of high quality bookshelf/stand mount speakers. A person can quite often afford a higher level series (from whichever manufacturer) going this route. If you are going to be using a sub anyway, the best bang for the buck is buying the speaker with the best high, mid-range available.

They are a very good speaker and epitomize the British sound. The 85th anniversary Denton model can be had well within his price range. Look great in walnut. The new KEFs are not lightweights either although they don't have the trad look he seems to favour. Ideally he should try to listen them all before pulling the pin.

They should sound very good with that Marantz 40N.
