Hi there!
I’m looking to replace my Edifier R1800BT with some higher end alternative.
What would you recommend?
Kef ls50we2. Amazing sound. Used them daily for 4 years now
That price tag, though :D
fair point! I forgot I was posting a comment in the budget audiophile community :). Still, looking at the sound quality/price ratio, they are up there. If you can find a pair second hand, well taken care of these should last a loooong time. I also have a pair of version 1 since 2017 that I got half price at the time. version 1 had a design issue and kef replaced the electronics for free in 2018 or so. I have them paired with a raspberry pi + hifi berry card in the family room. Looks like they will last a lifetime.
You might have convinced me! I’ve never heard about raspberry pi + hifi berry card!
Depending on your setup, budget and location, Nubert makes some nice speakers. I’m pretty happy with my A-125 and a XW-900.
They also make a soundbar (AS-225) that uses the same drivers but reaches low enough to eliminate the need for a subwoofer.
