Amazon never price matches. You can return them and just buy them again. Dumb and wasteful but that's what Amazon makes you do

Lol, see my post earlier in the thread. I went from the Sony Core to the Q150 and it's a huge improvement. .. no question the Q150 is the better speaker.

Agreed the Sony's are good, but the KEF Q150 is in another league. Mind-blowing sound.

I laughed at you for posting this but then I thought for a sec why not check out the link you posted, I've got nothing to lose. After reading the reviews. Whoa. Who's laughing now. Thank you for this!

LOL, there is NOBODY who rates those Sony's higher than the Kef Q150.

Kef is a name brand product for people in the know. You know, people who don't think that more cones means better sound.

Do these work best for movies, music or both? For the former, are people running them with a center channel or simply in stereo? If so, how convincing is their "phantom center?"

I sit about 9' away from my TV, and right now I have a 3.1 setup with old school NHT SuperOnes across the front. How much would I gain by going 2.1 setup with Q150? Noticeable? Would I be able to drive them adequately with my Onkyo TX NR 646?

Sorry for all the questions, I've been thinking about adding some speakers to my basement gym and if it makes sense for me to upgrade my TV/music setup, I can just use my SuperOnes down there.

It's a great near-field speaker and decent bass if near the wall. Had it for 2 yrs and paid $300 direct from KEP back then. It replaced Elac Debut B6.2 while good was not ideal for near-field listening streaming Tidal via Onkyo A-9150 and Topping D10.

Been through 50+ amps in my life and recommend Onkyo A-9150 which I was shocked to believe sounds better than $2,000 hybrid int amp set-up.

Why is this even a deal? It goes down to $300 per pair like four times a year. Supply chain shortage?

Bruh...that guy is a clown.

Highly rated on Amazon is a lot different than highly rated by audio people. SSCS5 is a good speaker, especially for the price. But, you can look around in places where audio people congregate, and nobody rates the SSCS5 better than the Q150s.
Please to search YouthTube also for Sony speakers.

Last holiday season I bought the Kef Q350 for $500. I also bought the Triangle BR03 on sale for $350. I thought the Kef sounded slightly better with my Cambridge amp, but not that much better so i returned the Q350. The Triangles will go on sale again this holiday season so people might want to give it a try, but it is all about matching the amp with the speaker.

I think the idea is to dissuade you from returning it at all. Like if you were asking for a price match for a bigger ticket item that you had to assemble, you're less inclined to dismantle it, put it back in the box, and ship it back to reorder the same thing again for a $50 savings. However if you ask for a price match for a $50 savings, there's almost nothing that prevents you from wanting to do that.
