Watts are watts.  But that will never stop some people from saying otherwise. Tube amps tend to soft clip. That is the big difference.  Look it up.  
KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way
Kenjit I actually have both. I can assure you they are not the same. So hate to say it but you are wrong there. Plain and simple, facts are facts. That’s all I have to say about that.  
KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way
I am always interested in new products or technology that push the edge.  But only if there is some technical meat presented to back up claims. Similarly, I have learned over the years to steer clear of products that make bold claims of technical ...

KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way
A few additional comments:1) I am running the KEFs as recommended in the manual with no toe in. Manual says to toe in 0-10 degrees. These are not intended to fire straight at you. 2) They are about 4’ from rear wall, 1/3 of way into room. No port ...

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 ...
