Kef LS50 vs Atohm GT1 SE - Emerald - 04-May-2017

Which one is better in a small room ?


RE: Kef LS50 vs Atohm GT1 SE - ogs - 04-May-2017

It depends on your taste in music. The GT1 has much better capacity in the bass range, especially with SAM. I have listened to both in my room and although the LS50 sounded really lovely I ended up preferring GT1. If you like your 936 in a large room I believe the GT1 will work well for you in a small room. The LS50 is sweeter in the treble so if you are "treble-sensitive" you may find the LS50 better suited. I used the same amp as you list in your sig., a 250 when I listened to the two.

LS50 Wireless is better than passive LS50 with any amp combo

That is true I guess, but the OP did not ask for opinions on the LS50W. The GT1 still has better (deeper) bass though.

LS50W won’t be as good as Devialet + GT1 + Good cable

Hello, I attended the demo of ATOHM at the HighEnd Show. I have listened to different models, the GT1-HD I really liked. For the size she filled the room very well, the SQ was also very good. Think about getting the GT1 for my office! :rolleyes

Atohm are very good speaker, the GT1 HD is the best of them. I have it for my office too.

You can get the LS50 in black or white, only without grilles.

You can get the GT1 SE in black or white or rosewood or wengnut (walnut), or in any other finish to order, with or without grilles.

The GT1 SE, admittedly French, was Devialet's first choice (and only choice so far) of a speaker package with the entry level Devialet.

I suspect both are great speakers (I have owned LS50s) but you should listen to both in your own room.

I don't want to go off topic, but does anyone know the difference btw the GT1 SE and the GT! HD? I see some sort of base with a space below the HD. I'm tempted to sell my Amphion / Nuprime office systems and get a D120 and make an Ensemble for the office.

Thanks
