The detail
Why we stock it
The LS50 Meta is the speaker that put metamaterials into the mainstream. A maze-like MAT disc behind the tweeter absorbs 99% of the unwanted rearward sound, removing a layer of distortion you didn't know you were hearing.
Combined with the latest Uni-Q point-source driver, the result is an uncannily precise stereo image and a tonal honesty that belies the compact cabinet. Needs a good amplifier — and rewards one.
