Can a set of Ls50 metas surpass or equal a set of Kef blade metas with subwoofers

strictly on output level the blades win easily.  

however for sound quality at moderate volume i prefer the LS50s.  

the SQ of the blades was disappointng to my ears.  

What if the question were LS60 speakers with a pair of KC62 subs compared to Blade 2s? Anyone heard that comparison?

In a previous post about KEF Reference 1s augmented with Velodyne HS-15s I failed to mention that I use a KEF Reference 204/2C center speaker. The 204/2C was designed to match the KEF Reference 207/2s and is 3.5" wide and weighs 90 pounds.

@dbphd In the video posted above comparing the LS50+KC62 with the LS60 the KC62 is placed at the same height as the LS50 drivers. That is interesting.

The Blade sound is designed on coming from a single point source, so I wonder if placing subs in various parts of the room has the same point source resolution of the Blades.

BTW - I sold my Livingroom speaker this week and now it is Blades 2 Meta’s or bust. I am going to sell a few more audio pieces lying around to try to make this buy happen faster. I will initially use a KRELL Dou 175XD amp and the Benchmark LA4 preamp with the Blades.

In my small office the KRELL Duo 175 amp with the KEF LS50 + KC62 is shockingly good. The LS50 really shines in a small room.

The control app for the LS50 Wireless II sets low-pass at 70 Hz and high-pass at 45 Hz when used with a pair of KC62s.  Integration of speakers and subs is excellent.  Even though it's a setup in the living room aimed at jazz and baroque music at moderate levels, it sounds very good with large orchestrations played at higher levels.  Sources are Roon, Oppo 205, and Sony 65 XBR ARC.

My final thoughts on the LS50 metas are every audiophile who loves speakers should try a set.The tweeter midrange coherence is so good they will make speakers you thought were great for so many years sound recessed....IMO..I like them rolled off with subs..and a good mosfet solid state amp...
