I’m two months into my ownership of KEF LS50s. Only a fool would be in a hurry to replace those speakers. I am that fool.

This is a long term plan.

For some reason, without any listening experience or technical knowledge, that argument appeals to me. Is my fear justified? Are speaker makers beyond such paltry concerns? Thoughts/comments/criticism?
One of these is not like the others.
Take your time. Gain listening experience. Expand your knowledge base. Like, speakers are only one small part of a system in which every component matters.
Learn things like, principles that tend to rule can sometimes be broken. Study my system and see. A general rule, the more of something the lower the quality and the worse the result. This rules for HT, where 7 speakers never sounds as good as two. But sometimes other more important principles are at play and then you get a Tekton with 14 tweeters working like one 9" driver producing the best midrange in the most seamless sound you ever heard.
A passive radiator is another version of a port.
You have much to learn. Narrow it down. Focus.
