• I’m not after lower bass, just a more balanced contribution from the drivers.

    The R300s are the biggest stand mounted speakers Kef make, they’re hardly bookshelf speakers!

    And yes, they’re on good quality stands.

  • Ah right. I did spend a few minutes trying to find the tech sheet for those speakers but was not successful.

    As danb has suggested, room placement can make a big difference. Depending on if / how the speakers are ported, moving towards or away from the wall can increase bass perception. Worth experimenting with.

    I'm not familiar with the Cyrus amp you have; I did have a Cyrus 2 at one point, that was a good amp.

    In general, dynamic headroom is always good. The idea of using a separate power amp has merit, however it's difficult to know if that will fill in the bass you feel is missing, as there are lots of possible causes.
