This is a KEF LS50W II. Very surprising speaker with near zero hiss noise despite being an active speaker. FR/SPL The bass extension is 44.9hz(-6dB). Overall, the balance is excellent, except for 1k to 2k. Directivity...

Community, Looking for some advise. Currently have three KEF R3s for LCR. I’m trying to budget for additional speakers. Two rear surrounds and four height speakers for the “unified layout”. Auro for music up-mixing and Atmos movies/music all via AppleTV. How important is brand matching? Three...

Excuse me if it would be partial repetition from other posts because KEF speakers get discussed here quite extensively but it seems this essence of my question is different and not specifically discussed anywhere. Basically I am looking at building a DIY system functionally similar to KEF LS60...

I’m wondering if upgrading my sub from KEF Q400 to one of the below candidates would have a noticeable impact on the purpose of music listening? In that case which sub (and size) would you go for? - REL T7X - KEF KC62 - I considered SVS Micro 3000 and loved the app, but I don’t like how it...

This is my first post in this fantastic community! I have learned (and bought) a lot! Big shout-out to Amirm and Erin for the reviews! I have an opportunity to buy some very cheap (300$ each) Genelec 4040A monitors (basically a 8040A with phoenix connector) in good shape. I have already bought...

Hi, I have already spent some time with interesting topics and information in this forum. Thank you for that! My current LCR system consists of 2x JBL XTI 80 and 1x ELAC SRL CENTER and 1x ELAC BASS 773. Maybe not the best combination. These Speakers are 20-25 years old. The room is approx. 25m²...

Hello everyone! I'm currently trying to decide between Focal Aria S906 ($1000) and KEF LS50 Meta ($1000). They are both used in mint condition. As for my living room home theater set up, I already have Sony's HT-A9 with SA5 subwoofer, so this would mostly go into my bedroom which is around...

Happy birthday, @jackocleebrown ! Your personal history has now reached 2/3 of KEF's history. ;) No need to feel old because of this, in 20 years it will be a share of 3/4. :D I can assure you from personal experience that you have at least ten more good years to come before your body will...

For sale the critically-acclaimed (also excellent measurements in ASR) wireless desktop speakers KEF LSX (all-in-1 system) in red color. The speakers are in very good condition (see photos) and come with all accessories/original packaging + after-market custom protective covers (bought for...

Hi, Piano Black KEF R3 set. No damage or bumps nicks. (the piano black finish has a few super micro scratches which is typical, very minor - not noticeable and only from someone using a cloth to dust them) Sound great. Have all the original packing for shipping. I am looking to see if anyone...

I’m selling a like new pair of KEF LS50 speakers in black color. I used these for two speaker shootouts and as my office speakers for just over a year. They sound fantastic and are very neutral. I am only selling to provide funds for my next speaker shootout. They are in excellent, like new...

I’m selling a like new pair of Revel Performa m105 speakers in black color. I purchased these brand new a year ago and only used these for two speaker shootouts. They look and sound fantastic and are very neutral. I realized I don’t like that neutral sound. That’s the only reason I’m selling...

I have the Cambridge CX81 (though looking into other options) powering my KEF R3s and SVS SB-1000 sub. The Cambridge has 2 sets of speaker outs. Could I use those to "Bi-Amp" the R3s or do I really need to use 2 different amps? I have two A07 on order for bi-amping. But am skeptical that they...

Hello! So I have the JBL 590s as Mains. Currently have been testing various options for center ( another 590 is not an option any time soon). The JBL 520c and 530 were not up to par as a center. The Klipsch 504c, RC-64 III and RC-7 have been the ones I have tested more now. So far the RC-7 and...

Hello everyone I am still embarking on this open baffle journey. I currently have a passible analog crossover for the Kef Q100 coaxial woofer and tweeter driver in the baffle. My goal is to actively blend two woofers coming that will arrive Wednesday and be placed on the same baffle...

Thanks for another speaker review, @hardisj https://www.erinsaudiocorner.com/loudspeakers/kef_q150/ Discuss!

hi all, i wanted to connect a couple of good speakers to my Yamaha CA-610 amplifier in my bedroom, which measures 10 x 10 ft. I would like to use the stands placed at the corners, main use for listening to music, I would not like to use the subwoofer, only if necessary .. thanks to this forum...

A fascinating insight into the design of the LS50 Meta. Lots of interesting visualisations so even a layperson like me can follow along!

Hey guys! First time building a system, but have been dreaming about it for a long time, so am very excited and looking to build something that I can enjoy at least for a few years before upgrading. Because of work, unfortunately, I don't have as much time as I'd like for researching and going...

Hello all! Sorry if this post is similar to discussions already had, I’ve read through everything and couldn’t quite find the info I was looking for. I’m looking to upgrade from my KEF LS50 speakers that I’ve owned for about 6 years. I’m currently running them with an Arcam A49, and am looking...
