Narrowed down to the Kef R11 meta, but the bass?

After a few weeks of searching, I think I've narrowed it down to the Kef R11 meta.

But there is one open issue: the bass.  I listened to them at the Best Buy store which has questionable setup.  The cables are some cheapy stuffs and the length probably too long so it might affect the speakers dynamic and the bass.  The play list they have is fairly limited so I couldn't quite able to assess the speakers capability especially the BASS.

So my question for R11 owners, what do you think of the bass?  Is it a bit lackking?

Don’t know if this is appropriate, but want to buy a new DAC & wife won’t give permission until I sell the R11’s. So if anyone is interested in a one owner, perfect condition, all original boxes & accessories, gloss back R11’s, please IM me. They are beasts, so local pickup (Cary, NC) is ideal, but will ship. 

I want the new DAC, so very motivated.

Gotta go Reference Meta for bass I’m afraid. 🤑

SVS Ultra Evolution Pinnacle Towers have incredible bass (4-8 inch woofers per enclosure) and sound natural and clear.  No offense but you could not pay me to listen to own the KEF R11 meta.  Too artificial.

Well…Some people don’t prefer a flat frequency.
