| KEF LS50 Need Help In my experience, the Tributaries are the brightest silver content cables I've heard.I think you'd be better off with something like Zu Mission; it's reasonably priced and nice and neutral. I've been using Zu for my power cords, interconnects, and... | |

| KEF LS50 Need Help Torxx, there are all kinds of things that a good subwoofer (or pair) will do for a stereo setup that isn't intuitive. You may find that the highs seem to mellow out with a sub because the tonal balance and the pressurization of the room change.And... | |
| KEF LS50 Need Help 12-20-13: Audioconnection...The highest performance loudspeaker designs today are sophisticated multi enclosures with drivers placed in their own ideal structure(s). .The LS50 provides a high resolution point source in a vibration-free cabinet. I... | |
| Which component is most responsible? I just had this very experience in this past month. I was auditioning speakers, and had tried the Martin Logan Motion 40s, the Sonus Venere 2.5s, the GoldenEar Triton 7s, some 2001-isth McIntoshes, and Aperion T3s. But when my wife and I played Me... | |
| KEF LS50 Need Help I would never seriously evaluate a speaker (especially a hi-def potentially class A one) with only 25 hours on it. I don't really listen to a new pair until they've had at least 100 straight hours on them, and 200 is better. On your setup, you don... | |
| Fun, small footprint, floor standers 12-14-13: Mjmch2003I went with the Monitor Audio RX6.Good call. Those are nicely transparent, neutral, and detailed with good bass extension while being very easy to listen to. | |
| Poor man's Rockport Atrias? If you want "poor man's Rockport Atrias," you have to seek other speakers with characteristics similar to what makes the Rockports so compelling. I figure it's a combination of very heavy and inert cabinetry combined with well-matched drivers plus... | |

| Would new speakers---- Call me shallow, but yeah, I have to admit that looking back over the 41 years in this hobby, bringing new speakers home made me happy and the satisfaction lasted a long time. The two most notable are when I brought home a pair of Mirage M5si's in... | |
| Advice on monitor/bookshelves under $2,000 It seems that the LSA 1 Statement version of their LSA 1 monitor would be a good candidate. The Statement is a hotrodded version of their basic LSA 1 monitor with the addition of better cabinet damping material, bigger, heavy-duty crossover compon... | |
| My grandfather needs some suggestions for speakers I caught the audio bug when my older brother brought home his first component stereo in 1969. Three years later I did the same. When I became so captivated by the Magnepans that I bought for my 60th birthday, I realized that I was simply done with... | |
| My grandfather needs some suggestions for speakers I turned 60 2-1/2 weeks ago and am a step-grandfather. I have been an audio enthusiast for 44+ years. After much contemplation and several auditions, I brought home a new pair of Magneplanar 1.7s a couple of weeks ago. I came to realize that I'm r... | |
| What is best sub to match with Magnepan? To those who say a dynamic sub can't be mated with Magnepans, I say you just haven't heard a successful blend yet. I have a successful blen in my house. I know that mine isn't very ambitious and part of my success is that I'm not trying to get the... |
