    This is their policy... so a 5% restocking fee, $30 for the LP-UNF and $65 IN-5, i'll have a think about it.

    SATISFACTION GUARANTEE
    If not completely satisfied with your purchase, return it within 7 days of order date for a refund or exchange. Refunds are for the value of the equipment only, less 5% restocking fee. Both outbound and return shipping are the customer’s responsibility. You must contact JD’s Sound and Lighting prior to returning your item. All items returned must be in perfect condition, exhibit no scratches or other cosmetic damage and show no signs of wear. All original documentation and materials including, but not limited to warranty cards, instruction manuals and connecting cables must be included for timely refund or exchange. For returns that do not meet these conditions, you may be subject to a further 20% restocking fee.

    Decided to go with the Kali LP-UNF (X4-> 3.5mm to RCA ->UNF, speakers 85cm away on my desk) and so far I like what I hear, definite step up compared to the g906 speakers. I listen to a variety of music from 70's classic rock, 80s, R&B, HipHop. Still leaning towards a sub so the WS-6.2 may be an easy pairing.

    I will give my Ifi micro Signature Heaphone Dac a go as it should sound better.

    Nice one, congrats! How do you find them for general use, such as videos/movies? Are voices clear/prominent enough when not isolated?

    RE DAC: We can't actually hear/discern differences between DACs which are well-enough implemented; they don't colour sound unless there's audible distortion.

    just a follow-up, my Kali WS-6.2 Sub arrived today, all hooked up using the crossover in the sub (Creative X4->RCA-> Kali WS-6.2 Sub-> Balanced XLR to TRS -> Kalil LP-UNF).

    What a difference this sub makes, a much fuller sound, the low end feels clean and tight.

    I also ended up getting a pair. Obviously have nothing on my R3s however they're really good for desktop speakers; I actually prefer them to my former LS50Ws.

    Yeah but nothing special, just one of those cheapie voll setups, really need to upgrade it given I sit at this desk all day haha.

    Got a JV60 build for the living room I'm pretty happy with, a local shop in Brisbane (Stereotech, fantastic bloke) cut me out the cabinets for it.

    One day I'll get nicer stuff :)
