R/audiophile is a subreddit for the pursuit of quality audio reproduction of all forms, budgets, and sizes of speakers. phile: a person with love for, affinity towards or obsession with high-quality playback of sound and music.But again, the looks plus practicality of the bolt mounting overweighed finding alternatives. Main complaint isn't the speakers - it's that the matching S2 stands are a bit short, particularly for the surround positions. The Metas fulfil the same criteria that had me choose those long ago - not too big, pretty, coaxial, neutral, well-engineered, high-performing for the price point, and every speaker identical. This is only my second set of speakers - they replaced a set of original KEF KHT2005 eggs from 2000(?). I'm probably not an audiophile either, cos I don't complain enough, and I don't get the upgrade bug often. Plus the visual clutter of the IR receiver + controls is annoying - the passives are so much tidier. Even if it was possible, it's a big price increase when I already have amplification, I'm wary of the lifetime of all the digital bits including support app, and it's easier to get a speaker wire to my locations than a power connection. I'm using 7 of them in a 7.1 setup, and there's no way to do that with the Wireless II. Those are real, measurable benefits with audible impact, whereas DAC differences are like amplifier differences - debatable whether they're perceptable as long as they're working well enough.īut I went with the Meta too, for price+integration reasons. ![]() Unless its DACs are incredibly deficient, anything you lose by not using your favourite external DAC (or even adding a whole ADC+DAC stage) should pale into insignificance compared to the benefit of the digital crossover and independent drive of the tweeter and woofer, plus the intelligent DSP bass control. In terms of pure sound quality, the Wireless II should always beat the Meta. Anyone who is prone to negative thinking, as I am, should subscribe himself a pair of them. Your ears alone would have some trouble figuring that (unless you actually play in a band). With the right recording and if you close your eyes, there are no speakers anymore and you'd have to convince yourself by knowledge that you are not being in a lounge somewhere listening to a live singer with a band. That feeling I always had even with pricey speakers, that you are still somehow listening to sound coming "out of a can/box" in a way is totally gone. The entire wall/space between the speakers is where the voice seems to emerge from and it is huge. It sounds just "real" as if the singer was giving you a private audition. What really strikes me, besides the stage they create and the total control they seem to have over everything, is the way they create certain voices, especially on tracks that emphazise on that. ![]()
