Which is better - Aktimate mini or krk vxt 4?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Hi,

Anyone have experiences with these 2 speakers? Aktimate mini and krk vxt 4. I plan to get one to listen to music from my iPhone and for watching movies.

I have listened to both but since they were at different shop, I wasnt able to do A/B. I feel that the soundstage for the aktimate was really gd. While the bass on krk vxt 4 was surprising strong.

The aktimate mini has an iPod dock and remote which is definitely a plus point.

The krk vxt 4 does not come with a nob to adjust it's volume and there is no iPod dock. So it is very troublesome if i need to adjust the sound volume. But the good point is that each speaker had its own amp which I think will create a better sound (not too sure about this).

So are there any other inputs you guys can share with me? Any help will be useful! Thanks!

Zero experience with the krk vxt 4 but love my AktiMate Minis.    At 40WPC they play quite loud, enough to fill a 10x15 room and then some.  I use them for about the same uses, iPod/iPhone and as TV speakers.  Plus I stream from my Mac with Airport Express.  Looking to get a DAC/Head amp to put between the Express and the AktiMates.  Taking a hard look at Audioengine's new DAC offerings.

 

I got a great deal on the Minis, far below the $700 USD retail, so shop around for a good price.
