SnorkelfaceSS Posted February 20, 2022 Share Posted February 20, 2022 (edited) I currently have 6 KLF-30's all with Crites tweeters and crossovers upgrades for my mains and surrounds. Problem is my theater room is just way too small for at least the surrounds. What bookshelf speaker would be the closest sonically matched with these? This is an Atmos setup, so no dipoles.

Dang man now that's one heck of a problem to have! Have you looked at the KLF-C7 center speaker? You could use a pair of those as surrounds.

SnorkelfaceSS Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 I know. I even had these shipped from all over the country when I found each pair haha. I have. I would need to mount these in a vertical configuration though, and from what I understand that would make the tweeter dispersion not optimal. Unless maybe I have that wrong. But these also might still be a bit too big since they're only going to be about 4 from the ear position to the front on the baffle. 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a sealed cabinet and not that deep if I remember correctly (9-1/2") you should be able to wall mount them if that helps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnorkelfaceSS Posted February 20, 2022 Author Share Posted February 20, 2022 Hmmm. Well I do have a spare C7, so maybe I'll do some experimenting. On one side the wall is open so I'd have to get a pretty nice stand to handle this...hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtr20 Posted February 21, 2022 Share Posted February 21, 2022 I'm using kg1.5 bookshelfs for my rears with a klf setup. It won't be a perfect match, but I don't think it will be super noticeable. You could even replace the tweeters with Crites titanium tweeter diaphragms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnorkelfaceSS Posted February 24, 2022 Author Share Posted February 24, 2022 Oh, I forgot about those! I'll look into the 1.5's as well! Thanks!
