Go to a dealer thst carries all or some of these and compare them to find the one you like best. I hear the new Kef LS5 meta model is awesome and somewhat better than the old model, but I am yet to hear the model but the meta damping tech is very interesting and unique.

Anyway, I've got a high-end set-up but I am having fun during/since lockdown building a DIY, low-cost system and seeing how darn good low-cost speaker drivers and digital amps and streaming boards bought online can be. It's amazing what you can build with very little cost if you put in the time...

Great point. The room size, shape ad treatment have a huge effect on the speaker's sound and many who have great systems spend next to no money and time on this aspect too. For most people, it's a bit of trial and error and you don't need to invest huge sums of cash and time to find the best...

Wow, easy, your very sensitive lads. 🤣 I would agree with you 12th Monkey, great points. It is after all about enjoying the music for sure and anything that gets you into your music or movie is great. For sure. You are right, its fair to accept people use all sorts of kit and budgets enjoy...

Yup, def in terms of audio most don't listen to good sound systems. Far from it. The majority of people today listen to music on Bluetooth speakers or soundbars (with 2,5 inch drivers with a 6 inch sub!) that might be convenient or look cool but its a world away from high fidelity. When...

The point is if you read and believe 5 star reviews that are paper thin, then you're either dumb or not parting with your hard earned cash. If its something cheap as chips who cares, but if I am going to invest in something expensive I'd like to see the reviewer going further than slapping some...

Horses for courses and I guess we all want different things from what we read and buy. But the 606 s2 article is full of subjective fluff and lacking in my view. Nuff said on this I think. Its 2.19 pm here in Sydney. Time to sleep. Over and out.

I agree 100%. That's it, but how can you give a product five star reviews and yet not directly test it with one or more competing products. Its lame. Most speaker makers test vs leading competitors in their class...by ear. The measurements just back up what they hear and go a very long way...

So you just trust a five star review that tests a product in isolation? I suspect your not buying or spending much my friend. 😉 There's no mission. Its not hard to expect a little more rigor if we are to trust these reviews. We don't need pages and pages, but tell us how it compares and...

Hi all, I just read the review of the new B&W 606 S2 and one thing wasn't clear to me. In many other hifi and hi-end audio publications, the testing procedure is made clear, not just the list of system components used and measurements are taken to both validate the manufacturers specifications...
