LS50 II Wireless

I’ve owned both. The difference with a KC62 on both is marginal. There is a difference in my space, but not enough. The upgrade from an LS50 Wireless II, in my space, is not the LS60s. It’s moving to a dedicated amp, R11s, and Rels. That’s a more expensive system for sure, but that’s what it took to

Beolab 8 compete with KEF LS50 Wireless II, not with LSX II. Between BL8 and LSX II at technical level, there's no comparison whatsoever, the BL8 are way better - that is, aside from personal preferences in sound signature. Between LS50 Wireless II and Beolab 8, the choice becomes more difficult...

I have the LS50 W II’s. They are a much higher end design than the Coda. The LS50 W2’s have almost 4 times as much power and the higher end cabinets and drivers of the LS50 Meta. I see the LS50 wireless are now on sale for $1,999.99

Check any products with "Google Cast" (formerly known as "Chromecast built-in").

The Kef app was buggy with the LS50 Wireless. They fixed the bugs in the LS50 II wireless but not for mark 1 users, who where left in the cold.

LS50 Meta with an amp that is in total double the cost of the Kef LS50 II wireless is claimed to be better. Kef themselves claim that they could not make a passive version of t

Some reviews report that the LS50 Meta with a Hegal amp outperform the LS50 II wireless. but £1k for the speakers and £1.5K for the amp is a lot more than the LS50 II wireless at £1500-1700

Depends what you are looking for? And size of room? If you want the kef's to go nicely for home cinema there are really 2 key choices Svs sb3000 or the more punchy and comparably priced svs pb2000 pro - the pb2000 pro is heavy though and takes a bit of strength to optimally position it. For cinema y

I have 2 pairs of KEF LS50W IIs. After going through maybe 10+ speakers in my life. These are the last ones. For the size, convenience and price, I've heard nothing better.

Well something like the KEF LS50 Wireless II plus a compact subwoofer like the SVS SB-1000 Pro would be well below your budget, but an incredibly capable setup for the price. In the ~€15K range, you can get extremely high-end active bookshelf speakers like the Kii Audio Three or Dutch&Dutch 8C https
