WS-6.2

I vote for Kali as well. I have the LP-6 v2 paired with their WS 6.2 sub, and they sound superb. I know a lot of people recommend Adam Audio, and they're great, but I think they are very sensitive to placement. Thanks to the front bass reflex and dip switches to tune the sound to your room, the Kali

The Kali has additionally a high pass filter (80 Hz) for your speakers: Kali Audio WS-6.2 (EAC YT review). So it would probably be a great way to go. Besides that, obviously the SVS goes to slightly lower frequencies, but is physically bit larger.

I’m bit of a subwoofer snob, and so I don’t think that there would be any subwoofers in Europe anywhere close to your budget. (My personal opinion on a subwoofer is that it should get pretty close to 20Hz for it to qualify as a real subwoofer. And those kinds of products sadly aren’t cheap. In Europ

Ordinarily, I’d recommend active speakers for anyone with your budget who plans on a digital source like a streaming service (Spotify, Tidal or Qobuz).

Did you ask Colonel Mustard? (Clue joke, jk) I really love my Kali Audio IN5 speakers paired with the WS 6.2 subwoofer. I use this setup in my studio that has similar dimensions to yours (finished third floor space). The speakers are very directional, and once you dial in the sweet spot the soundsta

Other people have already suggested some ways you could go. But if you wish to use the setup for some production work, then you really really should stay away from non neutral sounding speakers like the (crappy) Klipsch. (Even their higher tier products like RP-500M II aren’t neutral: EAC review of

With active studio monitors, I don’t think that you would need to limit yourself based on the location of the bass reflex port. Reflex port itself will work if you have a minimum of two times port diameter distance to the wall. But regarding the low frequency gain, that’s why those speakers have swi

Given your budget, perhaps these. (Note that more expensive Genelec or Neumann active studio monitors (about double the expense) are most definitely still better speakers.) Kali Audio LP-6v2 (EAC review) Kali Audio WS-6.2 (EAC YT review) Also note that “active studio monitors” (vs. “powered speakers
