New KEF R11 META : The Real Giant Killers !

I listened to these side by side to B&W 702 s3 as well as the ML x100 mentioned in this review. Between these 3 the KEFs had the most neutral cleanest sound. The bass was not as strong as the B&W or the ML which had the strongest bass but it was the cleanest, just as described in the review . The ML bass sounded like resonance and standing wave pressure in some particular songs. They seemed to also amplify HF like vocals a bit. KEFs were just neutral as the instruments were playing right there in the room. I like them better than the 702 s3 which had more bass and also clean bass but the HF was too bright for me. I’d say these speakers are priced fairly. Their finish also tops the other two. I certainly have the same impression as the reviewer that the KEFs had the cleanest most neutral sound to my ear with no coloring whatsoever so if that’s what you like these are your speakers  

Seriously, why post a freakin video by Andrew Robinson as proof of anything?  There are tons of folks who love the KEF sound and nearly as many who don't.  There are a s$%^ ton of speakers at $6K, the R11s are hardly a giant killer.

Kef were pioneers back in the day experimenting with new materials to achieve better control over speaker sound. Their speakers are pretty neutral, but there are brands that sacrifice absolute neutrality for their specific 'house sound' that can be more appealing to some listeners.

Kef makes good speakers if you know how to match them.I heard the LS 50 monitor with good gears like mark Levinson amp, audio research tube preamp, theta dac and transport.

No they are not.
