I need some advice. I am trying to decide between the Naim Mu-So 2nd gen and the KEF LS50W. The speaker would reside in my living room and would 90% of the time be used as an ambient / background music. I rarely if ever sit and purposely listen to music. If I do, it would be classical music, eg piano concertos. My priorities are good quality sound, convenience, ease of use (I have apple products at home), and finally minimalist cosmetics. Is it safe to assume that the 2 speaker system will ALWAYS sound better? That being said, would the difference be sufficiently noticeable? Are there alternatives that I am missing out on? Any advice would be greatly appreciated from this forum...

I have just bought a muso 2, I downsized from a Naim superuniti and pmc twenty 24 speakers.Yes, you can notice the difference but depending on your room layout, it’s maybe a compromise you can live with. The only way to tell is to audition both and see which suits you the best.

Anyone think they'll be a Black Friday deal on the Muso 2?

I ended up purchasing the LS50W. I had a chance to listen to the LSX and LS50W side by side and it was clear that the LS50W had more warmth, depth and clarity for classical and vocals. It is not as convenient as the LSX with the airplay but I am looking into a Roon lifetime membership. But I will try KEF’s proprietary app first and see if it will suffice. The LS50W was on sale for $1800.
