Dali Oberon 1 vs KEF Q350

I found the B&W 607s to be a better match for me, but they required work on placement, replacing the factory jumpers (they have separate terminals for the woofer and tweeter and I found the factory jumper between those terminals degraded the sound of the driver not directly connected to the speaker wire), and room equalizing to get a balanced sound. Some may find the 607s as intense and prefer the comfort and ease of the Oberon 1s that sound very fine and balanced, though warmer and rounder, right out of the box.

Looking with the company's proprietary coaxial driver in the middle and nothing else, the driver consists of a 6.5 inch aluminum offer with a one-inch...

Had dali oberon 5 floorstanders!! Great speakers, bass-heavy and relatively fast. Great for heavy stuff like converge.

I tried the foam plugs for the bass reflex port in the back and positioning in/out from the walls, but the bass remained very woolly and not tight at all. Pairing with a subwoofer and having most of the bass go to the subwoofer cleans the sound signature up a little bit but the overall sound quality lacked detail and definition. The SONY CSS5 at $78-$128 per pair outperforms this $499-$599 speaker easily in definition, detail and instrument separation.
