Kudos Titan 808. The new Isobarik?

Rack,
It’s another positive with the 808’s - placement.
I’ve got more space down the other end of my room in the photograph but I like the system where it is pictured. They sound just great as they are. The manual says pull them in at least 45cm from a side wall.
And they are close to the back wall too.

I am sure others give them more space and I no doubt will experiment with different that at some point but for now, they just fit right in.

Ease of placement for such a big speaker is a real bonus and must’ve helped with sales of the 808s. Your set up looks great by the way so congratulations on that.

Cheers, Rack.

Sure, 3m 20cm and they are 2m apart to Center of speakers

For full context, listening position is 3.5m away.

Thank you. It’s always interesting to work out the options. From the new photograph I see what you mean about the room being wider at the other end.

@Huxleyaston Love the way you’ve styled your room.

Tra la la la la, not listening

Will be in a different financial year too - much easier to make the case for a 2022/23 investment. I’d begin now. Actually I have

Briks lit the touch paper for me in a hifi shop in Headingly in 1979, fed by LP12/Ittok/Asak powered by Naim amps. Bruckner was magical. About 5 years ago I bought a pair for about £300. They were fantastic but caused domestic strife! I now have Titan 808s with a 500 system so it’s hard to compare the Kudos to the Briks. With that caveat, I would say that the 808s are more open and sound less like loudspeakers. You just get the music.

Thanks. Very pertinent response. And I know what you mean in the domestic strife department.
