Got a set a month ago. Using a Marantz NR-1200. Needed something with HDMI in and out. I’m sure they’d sound even better with a integrated amp but honestly it sounds pretty good. I also have a REL T-5x

Thank you for the mini review. It should be noted that the amplifiers are VERY different in price point - at least over here in Canada, although I suppose that it's the same in Australia too. The Marantz is about $1500 CAD, the Roksan is $2300 CAD and the PrimaLuna is $3300 CAD.

We haven't tried these speakers with the 8300A specifically but we have used them extensively with the 6000A and Omnia and they sound excellent together. Absolutely stunning imaging in particular. I imagine the 8300A will be a similar experience.

Hello , thank you for the review. I have a small disagreement here, I just hooked metas borrove from local distributor, to my naim XS2 which I bought second hand recently and I do love it but with metas I came to bed result. It is mostly pronaunced in female vocals which became very thin. So that is how is the sound overall, bass is very good but the rest up from there is not. Now I am a bit disapointed with my amp which is kind of add liveness to all dark speakers. Will see what I will do If I change my amp or try somthing like proac tablettes, hovever I have a bit bias that amp which does not sound good with ls50 metas is not good amp so....I fried my friends cambridge axa35 and I could not believe how good is the tonal result. Of course all audiophile things such as instrument separation, detail and so on are almost away compared to naim but , I compared female vocals tonality to my apple headphones (which are nothing of reference I know) and the sound tonality to my humble opinion is authentic (except headphones have a bit strong bass to my taste, and kef + axa35 doesnt),...amazing because I thought that with my budget I will have problem to come to headphones experience from hifi. Now on one site I am a bit angry because I changed cxa81 for xs2 but on other hand I finally found something what I really like.... At this moment I am listening Bach where is choir, beautifull,....I do not think I will need sub with those speakers,

Unfortunately, we haven't had the chance to hear the Dali Rubicon 2's, your best bet would be to find a local dealer that has the K3 and ask if you can take your speakers in to test with the unit.

Did you tried the Metas with Parasound Gear, I have the Parasound 200 Pre + 275v2 amp running with Monitor Audio Silver 6, I have no complaints and I like very much the sound. But maybe in my small room bookshelf speakers will fit better. Do you think it will worth the purchase, leaving behind my MA S6s?
@living_entertainment

Unfortunately we dont have access to Parasound here. If you already enjoy your sound than moving to bookshelves might feel like a bit of a downgrade, atleast in terms of bass response, if you have a local hi-fi shop that can demo the Kef for you or even let you bring in your amp for pairing then be sure to take advantage of it though!

If you are looking to pair the Kef LS50W II with the Hegel H95 or H120 they sound fantastic together! However, if you are wanting speaker pairing recommendations for the Hegel H95 we are hoping to cover the Hegel range in the not too distant future. At the moment we have a lot of new products coming through that, unfortunately, need to take priority.
