Beautiful

Been looking at these but haven't heard them. What is the 'value' piece in the floorstanders?

[@rmeyer52]

I just purchased the 80Fs. They replaced KEF R3s and it’s an excellent set of speakers. My listening area is 256 sq feet so tge 80s were great for me. The 100s were just too big for my area.

Awesome!!1 Thank you for sharing!! Enjoy!

[@mr.victor7886]

Tell me please , are there any sonic differences between the 80f and the 100f, or is the 100f just designed for a large area?

[@sturdyvw]

100f is a completely different sound, much larger sounding than they are. The 80f sounds like a bookshelf, 100f sounds like a large tower, 120h sounds like a wall of speakers

@@sturdyvw I heard the 80F and they do not sound like a bookshelf speaker. They actually sound really good and big, the 100's also sound good but in my opinion the 80's is the way to go unless you have a really big room.

80f sounded big to me today at a brief demo. A very likeable speaker, warm lots of flesh on the bone non fatiguing treble with good resolution. I wondered if bass control could have been tighter but may have been the song

100F far superior. It’s a three way vs two way design. 100 F is sweet spot in Founder series.

Bookshelf speaker are you outta your mind, a bookshelf speaker maybe at the very most bass extension of 45hz. The 80F 28-27hz lol 😂. To me the 80F is just getting into the audiophile territory. Great speaker and it is expensive but not really compare to other audiophile speakers. Awesome video 😎👍👍

You guys forgot to install the screws that hold feet on..

[@paulhunter6652]

I listened to all of the Founder series. The 80 F was disappointing for the money. The 100F are amazing and I own them. In my opinion the 100F are the sweet spot in the Founder series line-up regardless of room.

[@mr.victor7886]

Which series do you prefer Founder or Signature and why?

[@mr.victor7886]

I have studio 100v.5 . Will it be a step up if I switch to Founder 100?

[@stephenfletcher6801]

What exactly disappointed you regarding 80f?

[@paulhunter6652]

@@stephenfletcher6801 The sound was not near as good. Three way vs two way. They were good but 80f not worth the money.

[@stephenfletcher6801]

@@paulhunter6652 thank you for taking the time to respond.

You people spent the whole video taking the speakers out of a box, crowing about what the cabinets looked like, and stating statistics that are already available from the manufacturer. Please don't waste our time.
