Ok. I need new speakers and budget wise the LS50 Meta is the absolut limit.
My son has knocked over my old DLS R55 floor speakers a couple of times now, so I need smaller speakers that can be fitted on a wall. I listened to the RX1 and couple of years ago and really liked them. I really like the Rega sound and already have a lot of their gear already. I don’t have the time nor the opportunity to listen to either before I buy. I live quite a way from my dealer.
I mainly listened to rock such as Radiohead and electronic music. I also use my speakers for movie watching, so the ability to reproduce voices well is crucial. Another mandatory thing is the new speakers have to be mounted to a wall. So my question is then would the KEF even work well on a wall?
I know the Regas should do fairly well.
Everywhere I have read and looked people mention that the KEF is a fuller speaker and has much better bass response and that’s why I now have second doubts.
My amplifier is an elderly Carat A57 with 2*80 watts in 8 ohm and 160 in 4 ohm.
The speaker cables are Rega Duet.
My next upgrade will be a Rega Elex R amp.
My listening room is about 215.28 square feet / 20 m2.
