Bet they cost a lot, look awesome.

My speakers were 1/3 of my pay that month, although I don't earn that much, part time.

Yeah, it was a choice between these, the Tannoy F1's (which I heard great things about but I thought they sounded aweful) or the warfedale 9.1's. I prefered the KEF's sound quality and the walnut finish is gorgeous I need to get a better picture of them

I'll take some pictures of my setup. Does Audioengine A2's count on Auralex Iso Pads and Essence STX sound card count?


I might pick up some A5's for my HDTV

For slogan: We take our Sound SERIOUSLY =)
