FinkTeam KIM - thoughts?


I continue my search for the ultimate speaker in my small 12.5' x 11' room. Currently running QLN 3's, which I love, but find them a bit too laid back, and am seeking something with a bit more energy. 

I had been considering Marten Oscar Duo, and might still, but having a long discussion with ChatGPT this morning, it made clear that I should give the FinkTeam KIM some serious consideration. 

Let me know your thoughts if you have heard or own them.

Wow these things look intriguing. I had only ever heard of their big speaker design which I think has a 15 inch driver for lows. These look much more compatible with the average room, and by that I mean normal sized. 

Thanks for the updates, and hopefully they just keep getting better as you dial in placement. That can be a journey of trial and error, but worth it in the end.

@996turbo911 They intrigued me enough to buy them without hearing them and I am glad I did. And yes, they are quite room compatible, and they have fairly good WAF. I have been making progress on placement, slow going.

@zlone Nice! In my humble opinion, not enough brands design their speakers with real-world usability in mind. Even when people have a dedicated audio room of sorts, they still usually have some sort of limitations when it comes to placement. Especially with proximity to at least one wall. In a perfect world, sure, we all have anechoic chambers etc. But nice to see FinkTeam is aware that isn't the case.
