• Any experience here?

    Hate to be that guy but, I'd save your money for baby shit and nursery fees. It'll be years and years before you're able to listen to the sub or your speakers, so there's not point in wasting your money.

    The two considerations are kids putting their fingers through speakers/breaking them or knocking them over and injuring themselves. Wall mounting speakers like in a cafe is probably your best option. Putting them on a bookshelf is going to be the easiest compromise you can all live with.

  • Not everyone is in the same financial position, though.

    @MementoMori if its not a burden, I'd just get the KC62. Everyone who reviews it likes it.

    If you're going to fill the stands, probably whatever is densest? Can you get lead shot in Italy easily? Dunno what stands you have, but something like the Pangea Audio DS400 would work well for mass filling with as much shot (or sand) as possible. All four pillars are hollow.

  • True. But given how much things can change, it seems to make more sense to buy something that fits your needs in 5-7yrs time.

    We're literally talking about 2 months worth of enjoyment here.

    Although there is a risk that if you don't buy it now you may never.

  • I went with the S2 KEF stands, which iirc have two internal hollow channels.

    I think lead shot should be accessible here yes. I can’t imagine not playing anything at all from the moment the little one arrives. There’s plenty of occasions where the missus will be out or the little one is at grandma so I’m not worried about the actual lack of use.

    I love the look and reviews of the KC62 but I’m a bit concerned it might be a bit too powerful for the space / apartment.
