The LS50 FR spec of 79-28kHz +/-3dB is somewhat misleading because it's done under anechoic conditions with no port output. With port output included, Stereophile measurements show a flat bass response down to 50Hz. The Sound & Vision review also indicates a measured FR of 46-20kHz +/-3.2dB.
What is this speaker doing right?
I have a pair of Wharfedale Denton 80th Anniversary speakers running Bluesound (Tidal) through a Creek EVO 100A integrated. For the past 3 hours I've hands down enjoyed these more than my KEF LS50s. And I enjoyed listening to this, in subjective terms, more than my rig in a dedicated room.
The question is, Why?
The KEFs discretely separate things. My other system is euphonic. The Wharfedales have phony mid bass warmth--I love them.
What is going on?!
