I’m using the Mac mc611’s but I was using the hegel h590 awhile and the only time I really notice a difference is at lower volumes. The blades could sound a bit too smooth with the hegel, amazing control, but the mac gave the bass more detail and bounce at low volume. I expect your going to enjoy them and rooms can be a factor in selecting amps also.
KEF Blade One (non-meta) vs One Meta vs Blade 2 for large room
The title pretty much says it except the Blade 2's would be meta versions.
Trying to choose between these 3 speakers to fill a high ceiling (27’) 35’ long and 24’ wide living area. The room opens into a dining room then kitchen and breakfast area, that functionally increases the overall volume.
This is not a dedicated listening room ( I have a Wilson WP based room for that) and yes, aesthetics matter hence these 3 choices.
I’m thinking that the Ones might better fill the space with their bigger driver line-up. That said I doubt that they will be driven as hard as the Wilsons (in a smaller, fully treated room).
It will be very difficult to listen to all 3 so hoping those here with experience with 1 or more of these opine on which might be better suited to the room.
Thanks in advance.
David.
