| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way Oh my........Pretty good omen merely off youtube via bluetooth to my Sangean desktop radio.The live demo I had certainly convinced me to pull the trigger.My old ls50s are playing as I type. No slouches, but.... | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way @deetch nice, keep us posted!Dealer says my Titanium Grey Metas should be here in mid-October. | |
| Parasound's Hint 6's new volume control provides huge sonic advances? So seems like if soundstage and imaging remain solid at various volumes (and no noticeable noise when adjusting), the volume control is doing its job well.The biggest problem with conventional potentiometers I have observed over the year is that t... | |
| Wanting to get back into the hobby and want to start with the speakers. Definitely give the KEF Ls 50 metas a look. Also something completely different: https://ohmspeaker.comIf you can find a pair. Factory has been pretty backed up of late. | |
| Parasound's Hint 6's new volume control provides huge sonic advances? I read the older Parasound integrated amp used an old school potentiometer whereas the new one does not so that would seem to be a significant difference. | |
| Parasound's Hint 6's new volume control provides huge sonic advances? They are not the first to tout higher quality volume controls. Maybe it’s an improvement for their products. Don’t know.I can vouch for the fact as likely could many that potentiometers in volume controls need to be kept clean else audible deterio... | |
| Parasound's Hint 6's new volume control provides huge sonic advances? It’s a good question. I do not have difficulty imagining that some devices attenuate signals more accurately than others and perhaps with less noise but how or why....who knows? | |

| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way @COACHPOCONNOR, nice to hear. Are yours black?I have my current black ls50s on black Dynaudio stands that look similar to the KEF stands in pictures. I ordered Titanium grey ls50 metas. Maybe I will spring for the matching stands later and free up... | |
| How do you know what you're missing? In any pursuit, not just hifi, you have to have a clear vision of the goal or call it the target before you can hit it. If you are asking the question it sounds like you don’t know what the target is in which case one is shooting blindly. So how t... | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way Yeah reviews suggest it but we will see about the bass extension if better. I will say that at my in store demo in a very sizable showroom open area I think I heard more bass extension than I expected but we will see when I can compare apples/appl... | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way &longbowbbsYes I enjoy mine a lot also. Very involving dynamically for such little guys especially with the sub (Klipsch sw308 in my case) added. I’m curious how the sub integration will change with the new metas. Maybe no longer needed? Seems... | |
| KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way Hey Kenjit thanks for helping to keep the thread alive while I wait for my Titanium Grey ls50 metas.I work from home these days and the ls50s are in my office so I spend a lot of time with them lately. | |
| KEF LS50 - Question I use 500w/ch Bel Canto ref1000m mono-blocks. Plenty of current and power. Use same amps with other larger speakers as well. They will drive most any speaker to their max. | |
| KEF LS50 - Question Flabby bass rolled off highs and highly distorted midrange - what is to like? I’ve heard weak flabby bass and rolled off highs (bad sound overall) when using original ls50s with a 180 w/ch high output impedance zero feedback SS amp that was not u... |
