Upgrading from KEF LS50 Metas

[Mike_Trueman]

Did you bought new speakers and which?
Why not keep the LS50 Meta's and use a hpf @100/120hz with 2 good subwoofers? (the R11 uses the same Uni-Q Driver)

Congrats! Cardioids can be an excellent choice if you encounter certain room anomalies. Could you explain please what was the most relevant aspect in favor of the D&D in your listening test?

tbh I'm not so good at describing stuff like that, but they just sounded shockingly good with no need for subs (8Cs go plenty low enough for me).
