They are great stands by the way, I use the KEF X300A in my office desk mounted and they are fine, or should I say, good enough for the purpose etc.
i was at the official UK launch of the LS50 and the new LS50w, both are excellent speakers, with the latter outstanding value and quality. They really do shine in the right environment.you will have to be careful you don’t detract from this when adding a sub (or boom) hence the r400b may fit the bill better as it is more refined and very capable, but fits the Kef signature sound, now the Ref 8 is a whole other proposition. Good luck with your hunt, which ever way you go you’ll end up with a nice sounding system
