I've owned the B1 and had them playing in a 6m X 7m room. Felt the B1 were able to cope well with this room size.

The B1, and in fact all Vivid speakers (I now own the G3), are not demanding regarding precise placement.

Yeah, my room is smaller but semi open plan. Room is 4m by 6.5m with opening to hallway and partly open to kitchen/ dining. House is timber construction.

To be honest I don't think in terms of Bass and treble when listening. I'm just enjoying the tunes. Listening to a Massive Attack at the mo. Feel no desire to change anything.

Re placement, I like listening across short axis, it also suits room layout. My Vivids just slotted in where the B&W 804s were. I have bass traps in all corners.

Thanks for the responses! I have only heard the B1. I would be interested in reading impressions on how they compare to the K1, G3, G2. The latter two are a bit out of price range but I'm still curious.

Great forum! I've read all the vivid posts.

Sorry, only heard the K1 and G3 in different locations and systems. I would not hesitate to audition them however if I was looking in that price band. In fact they would be top of my list.

I love my B1's as well! I'm running them with a Luxman M-800a.:banana:

Thanks Masterlu!!! I'm a big fan of all your systems!!:thumbsup:

:thankyouspin:

I've upgraded from the B1 to the G3 getting deeper fuller lows.

bmwmcab, welcome!
