Quality and intelligibility of sound, low price for such acoustics, assembly quality
Lack of grills in the kit, too simple Velcro legs
For half a year, I listened to music through Oberon 1 and all the time I did not leave the thought that somehow the sound turned into porridge, I could not really hear the game of barrels in fast parties in the Power Metal style. He inspired himself that this was so necessary until he listened to Kef. They are much more detailed than they gave. The sound is clear, even and does not fall into a heap. Moreover, the price is the same. I am very glad that I listened to these columns (and I was not going to buy acoustics, but came to listen to the amplifier) and bought them. Great sound. For your money, Q150 is a great choice! From significant minuses, I only note that there are no protective grills in the delivery kit, and separately they are unreasonably expensive.

Details, dimensions, quality of the structure, modern appearance.
Demanding on the direction
I use in the bunch of Emotiva Ta1 + Sub Magnat Alpha RS8. Bought for replacement Yamaha NS-6490. And you know, I was very pleased.
Previously, rock was not possible to listen, there was one porridge. But now, these are definitely other communication. Guitar, the drums all became legitimate and finally I can enjoy music. You can talk about jazz for hours how the sound has changed. Never Nina Simone has never been so close ...
But, this acoustics are demanding on the direction. Acoustics stands on the desktop, a distance of about 90-110 cm from acoustics. I had to tinker with the position on the table a little. I have 190 growth in this, in addition, I will have to think a stand for acoustics so that the acoustics are approximately at the level of the head. Otherwise, the details disappear.
There is still a small remark to the volume, this acoustics on a small volume are not completely revealed. Yes, in principle, if you listen to the music quietly, then there are only headphones.
Bottom line:
In general, for your money, you can get a really detailed sound, with a high -quality design and modern appearance.
I recommend buying!

A stunning sound for your price. Strict and modern look. Compact sizes.
Grilles are sold separately.
I bought a replacement of floor acoustics to the ONKYO-TX8220 stereo. I was looking for a compact version of acoustics with good sound in the price category of the amplifier. The KEF Q150 sang with this model of the stereracean is expected to be better than with napliks (they have a very low min. Impedance), but what is unexpected for me is very better. Maybe the sound is slightly more dry and slightly smaller, but very detailed, there is almost no porridge, the HF is light and the ears do not get tired. In addition, the Tannoy MX10 (zya, 10 inches) is well combined, it adds volume, but at the same time, does not spoil the detail. They play only a couple of hours, perhaps after warming up the sound will change. I listen to the music not loudly, the room is 42kv. And no acoustically prepared, the point of listening about three meters from the center between the AC, installed on the cabinet at a distance of 2 meters from each other. For a budget setup, I definitely recommend.

Great sound, well -worked out of the low -frequency for 5 inches
demanding positioning
I bought columns with a simple SMSL-36 amplifier for growth as a gift. And when I received an order and collected everything to check the sound and satisfy the curiosity was amazed that they give out a rather modest price for their rather modest.
About the sound - the scene is well worked out. The entire declared frequency range. Nothing sticks out, but with a good record, the details are amazing. As I wrote above, the bottoms are well worked out. The initial idea that you need to get a 100% submarine later, shall shake in 5 minutes of listening.
After listening to 1: 1 with JBL studio monitors in the same budget and in the same near field, I can conclude that the detailing is higher, which is predictable. And as monitors in theory, it may be suitable. But to do so stupidly - they are not created for this and are fully revealed only with 1.5-2 m and the correct arrangement for this distance. After listening to them from the sofa, he did not return to the table.
About positioning. The 23 cm from the walls indicated in the instructions must be observed. less, they can periodically force the bass to buzz the room. (although this can be dumped on a poorly borront phonogram). Those. At first I was afraid that the bass would be not enough, and in fact it was necessary to think about where to put its excesses parasite :) Well, the base - the tweeter at the ear level should be observed, as well as its direction to the listener. Where the one hogging, you can lose a lot in the sound, which is insulting.
For me, their most important drawback is that after listening to several hours I thought about building the sound of the house. What will clearly lead to expenses. Until I met them, I did not think and I was fine in my sound (and remains, but the new experiences of experience decide).
