KEF LS50 Integrated recommendation

I may be able to demo the Simaudio. I have a local dealer. The Naim may be a little more difficult to get my hands on. I have owned Unison in the past and liked it very much. Musical Fidelity, no dealer.

Thanks for the replies so far!

I've only played mine on a NAD and the Musical Fidelity M3i. I prefer the MF as it gives a slightly warmer presentation.

Hi there,Im not sure what your budget is,there is a nice Plinius on audiogon for $1500 with a phono.I have just acquired the ls 50,and it sounds great with my Plinius.

I'd use a Vincent hybrid with LS50s.

I have the LS50's paired with Audio Research VSi55 I got for 1830 on audiogon. They are an amazing match. I don't think I could do much better. I keep on thinking of ways to change/upgrading the integrated but just in the end don't want to loose the synergy of this setup, its phenomenal, even despite being set up in a fairly large room with 9 foot ceilings.

If I had a balanced source I would like to compare it to a Ayre Ax-7e someday...

Entry level Transparent cabling and a Bluesound Vault as a source using the on board DAC. Soon to be switch to a Auralic Aries Mini.
