KEF Q900 Vs. PSB IMAGE T6 -dillema .

[Kozikex]

Hi guys .
I would like to buy nice loud speakers and I can not decide which ones to choose . I read a lot about T6 they seem to have the best reviews and awards . KEF Q900 seem to be good too . Can anybody give me more insight

What do you plan to use the speakers for? HT? Music?

Mostly music purpose .

Mostly music purpose .

They are a very versatile speaker being equally adept for music and HT. I own the previous generation model of teh Image T45s. They lack the extra driver that the T6 has so the bass isn't as strong as the T6s. However, that being said, I never feltt them lacking for bass for music. I run them full range and I've had them for close to 10 years now. I don't feel it necessary to upgrade. Whenusing them for HT, I let the sub handle the bass.

No matter how good the reviews are on paper, your ears will give you a more dependable truth.

Id go demo a set if you can, even if you can demo a lower end model, you will get an idea of the tonal properties the speaker has.

I know with Kefs, they have a nice wide sound-stage. So if your going to be placing the speakers far apart either from each other, or the listening position, Id take that into consideration.

Havnt played much with the PSB, but id imagine they are just as good too.

I've auditioned the PSB Imagine T. They sounded pretty good. But not any better than the Infinity P362. The PSB looked much better, though.

I haven't heard the KEF Q900. But if they sound like the KEF 201/2, then I think they will sound better than those PSB Image.

You're best bet is too audition as both are great speakers to see which fits your ear the best. Auditory memory is short and unless done on a side by side basis, doesn't mean much. Room acoustics have so much to do with how a speaker sounds that's even difficult to get accurate feelings from one store to another.

Great :b .....now I'll go to listening them ....Thnx for You all for a good word

Have not heard the KEFs but I own and love the PSBs; the soundstage may not be as wide as the KEFs but they work well even when spaced a farther apart than they should be. I have an old fashioned (and I mean really old) entertainment center that I plan on replacing since it forces me to place my T-6 speakers too far apart. The sound is still good.

You may be able to come up with a new pair of Synchrony Ones for less than the Q900's MSRP if you can find a motivated dealer.

The Imagine T's sound great but the Synch Ones are in a different league. Give them a listen. Maybe with a good street price you'll be able to make the leap.
