Hegel 80 with either KEF LS50 or KEF R300

Hi,

Heard Kef is great match with Hegel. Integrated amps. Does anyone have experience with Hegel. and KefLS50 and Kef R300? Currently using Monitor Audio RX6. My speaker cable is Nordost. Purple flare, QB4, Nordost.blue heaven power cords and OPPO 105.

Any suggestions? Also if anyone can clarify if r300 are much better than LS50? My room is 15 x 13ft wood floors.

Thanks in advance

LS50 is the best - both in proportion to the sound and dispersion....Harbeth is also pretty good like PSESR or even the 7ES3.

If you can afford do get the H160 - it requires about 100 hours of burn in though fascinatingly my brother auditioned it with the Bryston B135 - and Magico S1 speakers and the H160 came out on the top, i feel the LS50 and H80 has a wonderful synergy, we tried it on some PMC speakers the Brystan sounded better, then went to a Ktema Accordo and the Hegel to top again - Hegels are extremely neutral amps!
