Xeo 20 sound is decent, but two caveats.
1. The top end is way too muffled. Positive reviewers will call this "soft" or "warm", etc. No, it’s not that. it’s just missing. For people accustomed to better speakers or better headphones, one has to truly crank up to hear the little details.
2. Secondly, the HUGE drawback: every time a digitally connected Xeo (e.g., via Mac Mini) is switched on, it starts with a VERY low volume and you need the remote to bring it back to the volume of the last time you were playing this at. This is apparently a "feature". Colossally stupid and no firmware yet fixes it.
LS50W2 is a decent choice. Dynaudio needs to get Xeo 20 right.
