    Well just about enough room to jam them in the corners! To me they sound like monitor type speakers, like Spendor sr3, only not so flat sounding as those. Not sure these are really gonna be able to rock out much. Really wish I had the ability to have two systems, as I'd like to keep these and as some have suggested use with valves and then have another system for heavier music, or just rotate systems may'be? Luckily I have an attic in my flat, so I can store stuff there, other wise there ain't a lot of space.

    The veneer won't like being close to the radiator for too long in winter.

    Just goes to show differences in taste as I love mine and they rock as much as I’d ever want. Jazz and Bob Dylan are my usuals but 70s rock like Floyd, Zep, Deep Purple all work great.

    Do you use valves? 70s rock always sounds nice to me with a classic valve amp.

    Does your cartridge pick up the noise from you speaker?

    If not, I don't know how.

    Mike, you seem to be lurching from crisis to crisis.

    You've gone from the mega power of the Kefs to speakers that people match to valves, because they make "nice jazz"

    I'm struggling to understand what you are going for.

    Personally, I'd shift that LP storage. Move the hifi rack to the middle and then give the speakers a bit of space.

    I can tell you from experience that it's never a boon for imaging etc when you're wedging them between other objects.

    Yes valves here and not used them with anything else although I feel no need as I’m perfectly happy...

    They sounded great with rock with just 18w of SET up them. I dont really listen to balls out death metal but certainly more bluesy rock.
