KEF - LS50 Meta Bookshelf Speakers vs Polk L200 throw down?
anyone put these up against each other?
The L200 has a bigger woofer and goes deeper.
It can handle more power. In a small to medium size room?
What got me thinking was the 50th anniversary R200AE are the
same price as the LS50 meta...

I've heard them both in my room on the same gear.

79 Hz at -3 dB on the Metas and 85 dB sensitivity. I wouldn't use them in a medium sized room without a subwoofer or two involved unless they're just for background music.

So, I've heard the original KEF and the L200. I was left scratching my head wondering what all the hype about the KEF was, it's not a good speaker.Political Correctness'.........defined
