LSX IIs

Nice build! I also wanted a very high end desktop system. I replaced a pair of Genelec 8020 with the 7050 subwoofer with some very high end Sony nearfield monitors and two KEF kc62 subs. I made 2 YouTube videos about the process of integrating the subs into a system that had no sub output. https://y

I’m not who you’re replying to but I own a pair of Kef LSX IIs and Dali Oberon 5s and I easily prefer the Dalis. The Kefs are very accurate and have precise imaging with very good detail, but are also clinical in their presentation to my ears. The Dalis in comparison offer a much wider soundstage an

Tested them on a Denon Home Amp, and together they sounded significantly better than KEF LSX ii, at least in my ears… Off course, the bass is limited, and there are better options out there, but probably not for the price.

Love the imaging of the LS50 Metas, but can’t afford Blade Metas (for that full-range sound), so over the course of a couple of years gradually built a system that could try to simulate them on a lesser budget. Call it a sort of, “poor man’s Blade Metas,” if you will. Was never interested in the LS6

I have a spreadsheet with powered and active speakers listed with dimensions and specifications at http://www.mcmullon.com/activespeakers.ods The LSX are desktop near field speakers and many reviews say they do not fill a room. A sub KC62 helps as gives them more headroom. alternatives include:- Kef

If you ever have a chance to hear TAD speakers, especially the reference line, you’d hear what coincident speaker can actually achieve. When the Blade was first announced, I was super excited since the design looks ideal. This was the original Blade and Blade 2 I got to hear multiple times, so not t

I went into a KEF store and listened to them and wasn't that impressed. I've got LSX II's and a KC62 at home and felt like my home setup thumps a lot harder. Tbf, this was in Japan and they played Nora Jones as the test track. I asked them to play some electronic music (Laurent Garnier) and they loo

KEF LSX II are definitely not going to fill a large room. They are SPL limited to near-field listening only. LS50wII would be better options for larger space.

Go with active speakers, as others have suggested. I’d say there are three issues to consider when thinking about what to buy. First, your room at roughly 15’ x 25’ is not small. Quite a few active speakers in your budget are best suited for small rooms or for nearfield listening, where the speakers

Not sure which option OP went with. I was in a similar choice dilemma. Ordered the Kef LSX II LT online from costco for $799. They were not available in any of the stores. Simultaneously bought the KEF Coda W from a local store (Visions Electronics) for $1098 and connected that with a wiim mini thro
