    KEF LS50 Wireless II > KEF R3 Meta

    I just bought the kc62 sub and after an afternoon of tinkering I am very pleased. At first the sub was too boomy and overpowered the LS50s, but once I dialed it in it disappeared and instead reinforced the soundstage. I’m listening to Beethovens emperor concertos right now and the A/B with and...

    KEF LS50 Wireless II > KEF R3 Meta

    We moved and our listening room is smaller than in our old house. In our old house we had JBL l100 with a Peachtree amp 500 and Peachtree Nova 150 as a preamp - this system was perfect to my ears. My spouse and I traded in the L100s and bought a pair of R3 Metas from my local dealer - they...

    JBL L100 Reissue - $4000

    I never had the chance to hear the originals. When I auditioned speakers they weren’t on my short list but the dealer encouraged me to listen to them. I listen primarily to classical and when I heard Gardiners Beethoven 3rd I was sold. The KEF reference were also incredible but they were twice...

    JBL L100 Reissue - $4000

    Our ears are the best judge. Recently, a friend of mine had a chance to audition a 30k pair of Wilson speakers, he was looking to upgrade a 30 year old pair of Klipshorn speakers he bought in the 90s. After a week he returned the Wilsons and kept the horns.

    JBL L100 Reissue - $4000

    Thanks! I bought the teal covers, they work great in our living room. We have them a little over 10 feet apart and my listening chair is close to 10 feet back.

    JBL L100 Reissue - $4000

    Adding on to this. I bought the JBL L100 Century speakers on sale from my local hi-fi dealer in December last year for 3400$ and 500$ for the stands. I felt like it was a good deal. I have had 3 "wow" moments in my audiophile journey: the first, when I heard a good system for the first time...

    Need advice on next integrated amp

    Thanks, for the replies. I should have mentioned that I mostly listen through roon running on a mac mini plugged into the Peachtree pre amp - we also enjoy traditional CD playing (all my CDs are ripped to FLAC, but I often enjoy the physical experience of putting a CD in). I have a few SACDs...

    Need advice on next integrated amp

    Hi All, I am looking to replace my power and pre amps and my cd player. My spouse is not a fan of the current aesthetic. I have JBL L100 speakers (which I love and my wife does too). Currently I have a Peachtree Amp 500 for my power amp and a Peachtree Nova 150 for my preamp. I have and...
