audiotroy, thanks for the advice. That may be the way to go, but a Salamander rack filled with Ayre components and topped with a Thorens TD-124 is not too bad. I’m beginning to think I should stick with the Reference 1s. In an interview Jack Oclee-Brown said they were his favorite speakers and had recommendations for setting them up that I’ll try.

I would hope the Ayre components are better than the electronics inside the ls60. Is the ls60 a digital speaker? I mean does it have an active xover? The 2 speakers appear to have different markets in mind.

Listen hard before you buy.  I personally dislike the current KEF sound which is artificial and metallic, from the R series to the Blades.  

JMHO and I am not alone as witnessed at the AXPONA audio show,
