What to upgrade from a Kef ls50 meta?


 

My amp, an Anthem STR, has informed me that it would like to have a new friend to play with. Any suggestions would greatly help me out in this situation. I am looking 👀 at a pair of Monitor Audio Gold 100 6G. Because of space constraints, bookshelf speakers only. Thanks everyone for your suggestions.

@zlone love the idea of reference ones, I just don’t have the cheddar to make that happen. Definitely a someday save. Like the idea of a ribbon tweeters Is why I am looking at the monitor.

Understood, they are a bit pricey. The non-meta's can be found used in the $4K range, but still a chunk of change.

Are that many people unable to read or comprehend? I have those Monitor Audio speakers and really like them. 

Omg!  Easy, if you likes the LS50s then climb up to the R series.  The R3 is very well reviewed out there in TV Land aka YouTube.  Even better if you have the room and funds to climb up higher the R ladder…
Afterwards, just send me beer money! 🤡

@daytrader thanks for the vote of confidence. Probably will pay the invoice on Monday. I just wanted to make sure that there wasn’t one of us who would come out and say OMG don’t do that. 
@daytrader was trying to follow the upgrade rule of 2 to 3 times the cost of current item the R3 Was a little bit under that number. That is why I kind of ended up with the monitor audio. Definitely if I can live long enough, the reference one would be the dream speaker.
