About to purchase the Kef LS50W speaker want opinions about set up....

Then Magolia is your local retailor 
I am surprised that there are no local dealers that sell Kef in your territory.

Scottsaz, the point of my post is to remind the commuity that helping the little guy to survive everyone wins. 

I don't know about you I visited a local Magnolia and was appalled by the lack of knowledge that their young and inexperienced sales staff exhibited.

Do they know if there are ways of making the LS 50's sound better ie accessories or stands?

Do they know how to use and setup a set correctly?

Do they or can they recommend any possible KEF speakers with streaming amplifiers that may be a better longterm investment over the LS 50W?  

For example we can offer a setup up system with a Naim Uniti at $3k plus a set of R 500 for $2,600.00 we sell the package including cables as  a system, and it is indeed better with future upgrades to even better KEF or other brands of speakers with all the sophisticaion and amazing connectivity that Naim brings to the table. 

The point is in the days of impersonal shopping and internet sales isn't it nice visiting a place that actually knows your name and situation and can offer you something more than just a quick purchase?

So perhaps in your case you made the best and only choice, in other areas there are dealers that would love to receive such a call, just saying.

I am appalled every time I walk there too.  I am not really supportive of that.

My local dealer moved about 40 yards away from Best Buy a few years ago and his business went through the roof. Customers walked out of BB and into his store.He has a staff w/10-40 years of experience that can intelligently answer any audio questions.. They have 6 rooms ranging from entry level to High End. This past year Paradigm gave them Dealer of the year. One plus that most dealers don’t do he’s open on Sunday.

I’m interested in others experience with the DSP setting. I’ve fiddled around and I’m not sure I’m doing it right. Speakers on tv credenza around 8 inches from back wall.
