IN-8

From my experience, larger speakers always sound better. While the Kali IN5 and IN8 have similar low‑frequency extension on paper, the IN8 has significantly lower distortion. I’ve never bought into the idea that you have to match speaker size to room size — I’d always go bigger without hesitation. T

I have IN8’s and mix cubes in my studio. Love both of them. I paired my IN8’s with a Kali sub as well which is a game changer. Fantastic setup for the price. That said, you really need to make sure your room is treated. I built my studio and hooked all of my stuff up to hear what it would sound like

I did a comparison for smaller 5 inch monitors as nearfields in my 300 sq ft home studio and compared Kali, Neumann, Dynaudio, jbl, genelec and I have to say the Kali sounded WAY better than they had any right to at the price point. We’re in the top two. I’m gonna bet the in-8 would be the same. I e

My setup is tube preamps into the UA Signature valve so the sound has a character to it. Not sure what the condesa is like but I hear its a warm mixer. Speaking from experience, listen to a range of speakers before you buy them. I've had bright, neutral and warm speakers and I know I don't like brig

My room is ~16х10 ft and Kali Lp6v2 with sub works much better than 8inch monitors (krk rokit 8) But my room is acoustically untreated. Still I have better and satisfying results on Kali+sub. 8inchers are too much for that room because they need to be louder in comparison to kali6+sub and also becau

Either you get : passive speakers and a preamp+amplifier, or powered speakers with a preamp Powered speakers are good value for smaller rooms or someone that doesn't listen too loud. If you want to keep it simple, you can get: Kali Audio IN-8 2nd Wave (800€) Wiim Ultra streamer/preamp (400€) Speaker

Kali audio in-5 ( this is a v2 model anyway), or if u have a bigger room the in-8 v2 (the in8 had a older v1 model, the in5 was much newer). Its a very neutral speaker, you can boost the low end +2 db (aling with other minor tweaks via the dip switches). A very clean, neutral, and not ov3rly bassy s

I am briefly in the same situation as OP and I don’t think there’s a good enough solution after quite a bit searching. Now I am trying a pair of Kali In-8 V2 with iloud Sub, with the latter taking care of room correction. Seems a viable solution

With your size room and how close you are to the wall, the Kali's should do well. They are tuned specifically to sound good in large or small rooms regardless of their size and sound good up against the wall. The Adam's are known be difficult when placed close to a wall, which may be part of the rea

Thank you for letting me know. Sorry for late reply, i only just noticed this message. Yes they are. I no longer have the KRK'S set up. The one speaker stopped working a long time ago. I did experiment with those dip switches on the focal 50's yesterday and it definitely made an improvement, i thoug
