I've had a pair of Kef LS50s for almost two years and they continue to amaze me. My listening room is quite small (11' x 12') and I'm convinced that the coincident/coaxial driver design offers a coherent sound that multi-driver speakers can not match in a near-field listening situation. As always, YMMV.
KEF LS50... The ultimate anal-ytical speaker for living rooms?
I am looking for a VERY revealing with razor-sharp imaging type of bookshelf, but not the cost of TOTAL loss of musicality.... In other words, not necessarily full range, but at least balanced - not something that starts to roll-off at 200hz... They would be listened to mid-field, 6-7ft away in a somewhat open space. Could it be the ls50, or is there anything else around their price-point? Thx for suggestions...
