KEF LS50 speaker

KEF's LS50 monitor commemorates the brand's 50th anniversary and has received rave reviews in the audiophile press the world over. The driver is a combination woofer/tweeter, and it was derived from a very similar driver in KEF's $30,000 Blade speaker. The LS50 sells for a much more modest $1,500 per pair, but the sound is the most refined and pure I've heard from any 12-inch-tall speaker that's anywhere near this price.
