| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way https://thenextweb.com/plugged/2020/12/17/review-kefs-ls50-meta-upgrades-an-audiophile-fave-to-near-...Found this very good and thorough review today that really nails it and thought I’d share. | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way In today’s episode of my KEF ls50 saga....I moved the old ls50s out and into my 3rd system in the next room. They were not going back in and thought I’d use them as an upgrade elsewhere in house if possible. They replace a pair of old Boston A40s ... | |
| Recommendation for speaker upgrade for main home listening and audio environment That's a good deal and yes they are! | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way I like them both. Different look and aesthetic. meta black finish is not glossy piano black like before as I recall...more matte?. Titanium grey is more industrial looking and the driver seems more reddish and pops differently. Which will look bes... | |
| What is Floyd Toole saying about extra amplifier power and headroom? ref1000s do not have custom input stage for best tube amp results nor beefed up power supply.....stock icepower. So may not be best still for a 4 ohm load or use with tube pre-amp if needed, ....even though 500 w/ch. You need somewhat pricier ref1... | |

| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way Regarding off-axis response the KEF blurb says they disperse evenly throughout the room and indeed that is what they seem to do. The tonality holds up well even where I sit at my desk in between and somewhat to the their rear. That is no easy ... | |

Rings true.People are all fallible but responsible people fact check things as best they can before spreading rumors as is so easily done on the ... | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way Yes, thanks. Definitely more refined overall than the originals and the originals are no slouch for their size either. Still have a lot of listening to do to soak it all in. The litmus test for me in the end is how long a setup holds my attention ... | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way Quote from KEF website:"Using advanced simulation and analysis tools, our engineers have developed the 12th generation Uni-Q with MAT. This new driver array delivers reduced coloration, less distortion and a sound that is more transparent and life... | |
| Has "politically correct" killed the used audio market? Yup. Believe the facts or baseless claims people make in hifi forums. | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way Ok well I picked them up at the dealer earlier today. Got a bonus of three cans of Christmas Cookies for being a patient customer. Had a final quick listen to the old ls50s then in with the new. Only had time for some quick initial impressions so ... |
