Kef Blade or Wilson Audio Alexia?

I have heard the Blades twice, and both times I was very underwhelmed. If someone gave me $30K to spend on KEF speakers, I'd buy the top KEF Reference model, and pocket the difference. OTOH, I've heard various Wilson Audio speakers in the past, and generally liked what I heard. Just my $0.02. You should audition any gear you are considering prior to purchase, especially a five-figure purchase!

I've heard the Blade at a few shows with top gear and they never impressed me, I have owned several Kef systems and the Blade always sounded just flat and boring to me.

I owned Wilson Sasha W/P's and they are very impressive, sold due to moving out of the country but would have kept them otherwise, my vote is for the Wilson's.

Sorry for the mistake, it's 208 sq ft. Thanks for the inputs.

Sorry, it's 208 sq ft.

bummer to hear all the negative comments about the blades

such a neat design and nice looking speaker

not to mention a very positive review recently in one of the mags

my two cents...
