KEF ls50 meta’s are on the way

Played “The Knife” off the Genesis album “Trespass” yesterday. An original CD mastering streamed off my music server.

This is a cut I know well and have heard many times over the years with widely varying sonic results.

It was most impressive on the Meta + sub combo in terms of overall weight, soundstage and imaging and a lot of  detail I can say I never took notice of to such an extent ever prior.

Great recordings sound great yet each a little difference. The worst recordings are as listenable as they have ever been.

Very happy with these and looking forward to the latest technology baked into these to make its way into some larger models.

Thanks for reporting progress as you go.  It's been fun reading about your Metas. I hope to demo a pair down the road just for grins.  It can be revealing moving the same speakers around to different setups with friends, in normal non-covid times. With some time on them now, and getting use to the sound, by chance are you done with gear changes at this juncture -or- possibly wondering about any upstream changes you could benefit from? Interested in following your updates. Thx.  

  

Thanks for the kind words.  I think I am done for now.

Hello mapman, I'd like to pass along this thread and your feedback to a friend. Now that you've had the new LS50 Meta speakers for a while, what do you think?  And, compared to your prior LS50s and Ohm Walsh?
