KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way


Got a demo today and ordered a pair. Should arrive next week.  Will shootout with my current ls50s when they arrive.  Stay tuned.

It's great to read that the new LS50 meta speakers are making owners really happy!
I've heard the original at a local dealer quite a while back - really nice, not completely my cup of tea.  But I'd like to hear the metas.  Not gonna happen any time soon unfortunately, given current circumstances.
As an update, I ended up returning my LS50 Metas at the end of the 30-day trial period.  It turned out that they really needed to be played a bit louder than I usually listen, which is fairly moderate volume levels (max SPL 78 db or so).  They sounded a bit dark and lacking bass at that volume. When I turned them up to max SPLs in the mid 80s and beyond, they sounded much fuller and more engaging.  My room is approx. 12x15 ft., and I sit about 7 ft from the speakers.  They are great speakers, but they just didn't quite work for my particular case.    
Just curious what kind of amplifier/source you were doing most of your listening with?

If that question was for me, I used an Exposure 3010 s2d - 110wpc.  
I use a Pass lab int 60,which is only 60wpc and i do not experience, what you did with the meta’s.
