| Bookshelf speakers that sound good on a SHELF or SIDEBOARD Regardless of what speaker you get, if you're not going to put them on dedicated stands, try the IsoAcoustic stands. It's the next best thing. | |
| KEF LS50 Wireless integration with REL sub @willemj Thank you for the valuable advice. I do have one more question ... since both the sub and the kef app has a crossover setting, do you recommend an optimum setting? Should I set the sub's crossover to the lowest and use the app, or vice v... | |
| KEF LS50 Wireless integration with REL sub I really appreciate the advice.@mattmiller I apologize for not able to fully comprehend your recommendations. Are you suggesting that I turn off the KEF subwoofer settings altogether and only tune the REL? The instruction manual for the REL descr... | |
| B&W 705 S2 or Elac Adante S-61 @contuzzi -- I have been reading about the Elac Argo B51 active speakers. I was planning to buy a second pair of the KEF LS50 wireless for my smaller study but these have me intrigued.http://www.avsforum.com/best-of-ces-2018-elac-argo-series-power... | |
| B&W 705 S2 or Elac Adante S-61 Although I do not own the new 70x line of B&W, I have owned the CM line before -- CM5 (bought and returned within 30 days) and CM10 s2. When the 7 series replaced the CM line, I went to the local Magnolia design center to listen. My impression... | |
| Has anyone purchased the new Elac Adante floorstanders yet? @hificrazed When you say that the Elacs "bests the B&W 705s2 easily", can you please provide more information? How did you reach that conclusion? Did you perform a side by side comparison or read a review somewhere that you can link to? Thank ... | |
| Looking for speaker recommendations that I can purchase on Amazon.com I can understand the frustration that many people are facing in this thread. The OPs request to only and only limit suggestions to Amazon and Best Buy is very highly unusual, to say the least. So naturally, folks want to know why it is so. Some ha... | |
| Looking for speaker recommendations that I can purchase on Amazon.com I forgot to mention that Best Buy gave me a 12% discount on KEF LS50 speakers and performance stands. I don't think you will get that on Amazon though. | |
| Looking for speaker recommendations that I can purchase on Amazon.com +1 for KEF LS50 Wireless. I've had mine for about a month now and thoroughly enjoying them. They are definitely better than my $4000 B&W CM10 floor standers that I sold recently. I am very impressed with the built-in amps. I don't have any iss... | |
| About to purchase the Kef LS50W speaker want opinions about set up.... @jon_5912 -- I would submit that in case of the KEF LS50 wireless, what helped them was the fact that the passive version was already a critical success. KEF just made it better. To be honest, if I hadn't heard so much about the passive version, I... | |
| About to purchase the Kef LS50W speaker want opinions about set up.... I bought mine a few weeks ago. I haven't put 50+ hours on them and the dedicated stands are still on backorder. They are amazing as is, I can't imagine how much better they will be once I put them on stands (filled) and put a few more hours on the... | |
| Filling speaker stands: sand, lead, steel, rice. Full, half, etc? I have a somewhat related question ... hope the OP won't mind the digression a little bit. If I want to raise the speaker stands by around 6 inches, what is the best route to get there? Should I just get concrete slabs (from Home Depot) and put th... | |
| KEF LS50 Wireless -- wow!!! @smrex13 Although, I'm not using an external DAC, there was a discussion on audiogon a few months ago along the same lines ...https://forum.audiogon.com/discussions/kef-ls50-wireless-internal-vs-external-dac | |
| KEF LS50 Wireless -- wow!!! A few more observations after listening to the speakers for the last 3 - 4 days ....Pros:1. Vocals, jazz, light/soft rock sounds amazing. There is a certain fullness in the sound that I was missing before. Last night, I had listened to them for ov... | |
| KEF LS50 Wireless -- wow!!! So today my kid, who has some sensory issues, decided to poke his finger into the front of the speaker. Almost punctured the area between the foam and the tweeter. I was able to straighten a part of it but there’s still a crease on the left side. ... |
