Jeffie1503561482 Posted September 11, 2008 Share Posted September 11, 2008 I know Hi Fi trader in Newtown sell the Krix range... Seems hard to get a sharp price out of them though. hard to get a good audition too. They dont have a dedicated room for listening, you just go to the back part of the store and they are all line up.

Inego1503560167 Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I bought my Krix from hifi trader, and I've bought a bunch of other stuff there over the years. Even for repeat buyers they seem unprepared to "deal" (although there occasional vouchers can come in handy. I love Krix, but tend to buy at places other than hifi trader if I can..... I wonder if the philosophy will change at all since the fire, or whether they'll build an audition room? Kent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I own VAFS and live in SA. Purchased the VAFS at a great price so ruled out Krix however in my ventures I have toured the Krix factory at Hackham and was blown away with the total production process. The team work and enthusiasm the staff have for their products is a testament to the quality that creates the WOW factor. I purchased the seismix 5 subwoofer and a pair of KDX for rears in Jarrah (hand picked the wood grain in the factory). Sold the KDX's as I purhased large VAF's for rears.

cerberuscoins Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I have been meaning to pay VAF a visit, just haven't gotten around to it. I drove to the VAf store on the weekend to test their DC7s. I spent a good 45 minutes listening to those plus their other speaker ranges. They are a remarkable speaker. The build quality is perfect. The sound through the varying genres of music was tremendous. At some points it was like having the musician in front of you, playing for you. I sat with the main person who runs VAF (Im crap with names) and as he took me from room to room listening to the ranges it reminded me of the days of great customer service Its not often you get treated like a customer whose going to drop $100,000 on a set of speakers. I bought the DC7's for $1800 (plus cable, banana plugs and an upgrade to the tassie oak) There was no hard sell. The speakers sold themselves. I live in Adelaide and its the first time I have ever been to the store. I should have gone a long time ago. My only gripe? a 10 week build time. I want them now.

dantan Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 I went to Adelaide last December for one week. I visited the Krix factory, but I need not have the chance to visit VAF Research. The owner is Phil Vafiadis. Based on what I have heard, he is extremely enthusiastic about his products. I have no doubt that VAF manufactures very good loudspeakers. It is great to have 2 (I am sure there are more) Australian manufacturers of loudspeakers that manufacture world-class loudspeakers at sensational prices for us Australian customers. Dan.

Helped a close friend install his dc7's and dc6 centre in blackwood plus the two vaf subs. He purchased my Yam 1800 avr plus my pio lx 71. We finished about midnight. I calibrated them for him and we both sat up listening to various sound tracks and played a couple of sample br's. I was so impressed with the sound that I decided to extend our listening sessions to 3 am this morning. Time (yawn) for bed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DenonCi Posted July 28, 2009 Share Posted July 28, 2009 Hi Guys I have just bought my epicentrix I know am a bit late on buying it but better know or never. Is there any think I should know about this mighty center channel and tips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dantan Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Hi Kris, The Krix Epicentrix centre channel loudspeaker will require about 100 hours of running-in, before it starts performing at its best. It performs well with modest levels of power, but really perform with a decent amount of good-quality power. I would just say, sit back and enjoy it! Dan.

SimonNo10 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Reviving an old thread. A mate of mine has just purchased the Krix Neuphonix (Fronts) and Krix Epicentrix centre channel and Acoustix for surrounds and ask me if he should run them as large or small (Fronts & Centre)? He is powering them with a Wyred for Sound 5.1 power amp and an Anthem 50v pre-pro. He also has 2 SVS subs, see link below: http://www.svsound.com/view-all?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=14 I'm not familiar with the Krix range but from what I've read on the internet from other owners Krix themselves say the centre and Neuphonix should be set to large. The Neuphonix are the rear ported version as you can get front ported by request. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quark Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 (edited) If HT use only, then setting them to small with a crossover no higher than 80Hz is probably going to work fine and be easiest to set up. If looking to use in 2.2 stereo from time to time, then probably worth trying both options (and several crossover points) and see which sounds better.

SimonNo10 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Thanks for the reply. It will be 100% HT use. Will pass the info on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aspect Posted June 20, 2012 Share Posted June 20, 2012 Simon, I would recommend setting them to small. I had them set as large for a while, and when listening to them loudly, and with a lot of LFE, they can clip, ever so slightly. As soon as I changed them to small, then no worries. I did read that speakers with drivers smaller than 6" should be set as small. Cheers, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrx1 Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Looking at the spec's for the Atomix on the Kirx web site, it does not list the crossover point. It's clearly labelled as a 2 way speaker. Does anyone know what the corss over point is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5L15 Posted July 6, 2018 Share Posted July 6, 2018 This is for current owners who lost their info booklets and for future owners who want to know what they are getting. I bought a pair of these needing a refoam, I could not find any information on the net for them so I sent an email to KRIX and within 24 hours Michael Cox (marketing manager) sent me 2 pdf’s about them. Thank you Michael!! Hopefully the pdf’s uploaded for future reference? IMPAX 2-0.pdf IMPAX.pdf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
