Hegel 80 with either KEF LS50 or KEF R300


Hi,

Heard Kef is great match with Hegel. Integrated amps. Does anyone have experience with Hegel. and KefLS50 and Kef R300? Currently using Monitor Audio RX6. My speaker cable is Nordost. Purple flare, QB4, Nordost.blue heaven power cords and OPPO 105.

Any suggestions? Also if anyone can clarify if r300 are much better than LS50? My room is 15 x 13ft wood floors.

Thanks in advance

Hey Morty74;
The LS50 is definitely way more refined than the 300's. More finicky for set up and you'll need power. I've had mine a few months now. FYI..I auditioned the Hegal H160, Simaudio Moon 340i and the Bryston B135sst². IMHO the Bryston was the clear winner. I must say, both the Moon and the Hegal were very good in there own ways but the smoother, silker highs and tighter more controlled bottom end made it no contest. Just a better match to the LS50's. Have fun at this hobby, and be forewarned.....
Cheerio, Doug
