This video is a sound comparison of KEF LS50 Meta & KEF Q350 bookshelf Speaker and Requested by "Евгений Искариот"
I tested three different setting.
1, LS50 Meta
2. Q350
3. Wave file played from computer directly (not through speaker)
How much difference did you notice in this video?
Is it worth to pay more money to get LS50 Meta?
Do I need to compare with other types of music?
What do you think?
I mentioned in other video that I will put some sort of device to match the sound. I placed sound meter app to compare the level. I am not sure how I match sound level exactly. please give me some tips if you know.
Let me know your concerns and comments.
thanks

Q350 - perfect speaker at an affordable price
Great! The differences is noticeable but it's not a huge one... Price are different...
Davvero un'ottimo video; ben fatto per capire bene le differenze con delle cuffie di qualità! Grazie e Complimenti!
Thank you!!!
I love the way you play the without the speakers...
Good comparison thank you
The Q350s sound like they have a much better image and bass roll off through my Klipsch RP-500Ms. It sounds like you're using an excellent microphone to record this session.
I think the dry acoustic in your demos is
a good thing. Whether one is trying to assess a speaker, amp or any source playing through it, hearing it mixed with any acoustic reflection isn't helpful, and no one elses will ever be the same anyway.
Late here , I own both - with a Sub, necessary for the Metas, maybe not for larger Q350.... I'm 72 & my ears don't hear over 8000 hz so I'll only say vocals are a bit clearer with the Metas. double plus the price , that's for each person to say.
Do you level match the speakers at 1khz? Great demo. Thanks.
Both have that same KEF speed and defenition. The Q350 is warmer and more full bodied, wich at least gives an impression of a bit less dynamic energy than the LS50 meta.
Both are lacking deep bass but q350 less than ls50. Q350 have better soundstage and ls50 is more detailed. I would take q350 for longer listening sessions.
I agree. I own both speakers. I'll going to modify the crossover on the Q350 and I'm expecting some improvement... Greeting form Suisse.
Would like to hear latest Elac Uni-fi 2.0 UB52 in that mix
I picked up a set of UB52s in 2021 when they were on sale for $450, and for $450 they are a good speaker. I upgraded to the LS50s over the holidays when they were on sale for $1300. The Elac is punchier than the KEFs, so if your taste runs toward dynamic high-energy music they're a bit better. I find the KEFs better where voices are concerned, especially for movies. Overall the KEFs sound more like music and the Elacs sound like good speakers. The one caveat for the Elacs is price. At $700 they are too close to better speakers that go on sale. I still see them occasionally down in the $450 range at Amazon.
is the nad c368 better than the cxa61/81? hope you can compare soon. great job
thanks, let me compare those soon
I just uploaded comparison video of NAD C368 and Cambridge CXA61. You should check it out and let me know what do you think?
@@eprojectEllie that was fast. Thanks a lot!
i hear little more low on the q350 i like that, LS50 is little more dry and laid back , i like the q350 better
What gives, is this room an anechoic chamber ? It sounds basically completely dead, almost difficult to tell the difference in direct signal vs live recording, in this instance, the differences between all three clips seem extremely subtle.
thanks for your comment. This place is my garage studio. Condenser mic was placed two feet away from speaker. All walls are surrounded by something(equipments, furnitures, ...) from top to bottom. Do you have any tips how can I make better environments for sounding record?
ls50 is colored. it sounds more pleasant than the original track, can be good or bad thing.
Very close... ls50 just a little tighter bass and little more clear treble. But would be happy with q350 at half price.

Q350
Kef350 better , advantage of larger cabinet
The difference is not felt, can you record with another song, maybe rock? Thanks!
no problem, I will let you know soon.
thanks
Greetings! my friend~
I just uploaded the rock music comparison. hope you like it. thanks
@@eprojectEllie 👆🏻this right here is why I respect you. Keep grinding dude. You’re killing it
To me, the LS50s definitely are a lot more defined. The experience is closer to high end audiophile expectations while the q350 has more meat on the bone and conveys some excitement. Contrary to others, I believe in the long run I'd get fatigued with the q350 - I used to own the q300 - because the lack of precision, not muddy but not sufficiently articulated, just wouldn't cut it for me. My reference point is my main speakers, Dynaudio contour series.
The meta have a metallic tinge which I don't like.
Nice job. I would suggest to remove the wave
Thanks for the tip
@@eprojectEllie No don't remember the wave, it provides a baseline to compare both speakers to.
If anybody believes that the difference between these two speakers is only this much, is sorely mistaken.
The Q350 are GOOD but nowhere near in sound even to the old Ls50's (I've owned both for long enough to know). The Metas are again different (some may say, better than the old one).
Do NOT believe youtube sound demos.
Thanks for telling the true feelings, I decide to buy the old ls50s lol
Four times boredom
I can hear more distortion from Q350 through my headphones.
lol no you can't
Kef q350 £350 Kef ls50 £1100 lol
This is not music
