Interesting paper on KEF LS50

[Reggie Mental]

looking to buy a pair myself, thanks for article
that just shows people how much has gone into designing a loudspeaker
pretty tough work i would say

I'm considering them too. The price appears to be dropping in Germany, so probably will here as well. http://www.csmusiksysteme.de/de/home...ex.htm?fref=pa

I see that there are some "trade-in" deals which give £125 to £150 off the list price, depending if it any KEF model or another make you trade in. I was thinking of trading in a pair of old Cresta's .

In the loft I have an ancient pair of Leak Sandwich 600 I could use, but I think the price has some falling to do.

I think they are pretty well priced compared to their nearest (IMHO) competition. I had LS3/5as, still have Harbeth P3ES and prefer the LS50 to either. I sold my LS3/5as for twice what I paid for my LS50s and the current Harbeth is almost double the LS50 price.
So much the better if they get cheaper though!

The German advert lists' KEF LS50 stuckpreis E499'. Stuckpreis means per item or each.That is 499 Euro each or 998 per pair which isn't far from the UK price of £800

As the OP thank you for all the advise.

Unfortunatly KEF dealers are not very well represented in my area and its a 50+ mile drive to take a listen. Last time I wanted to listen to the Q300 I had a 100 mile drive to find a dealer with them on demo.
