Powering them with Denon PM-600NE, M2 aren't here but powering a friend's old paradigm monitors with them, its a good setup and also convinced me KEF is no match to an AMP and even speakers that can be had for $150 a a pair in the used market.

Here is my inexperianced review
Imaging: KEF better than Paradigm Monitor (probably because paradigm aren't near field)
Bass: Paradigm. So bad that even with a sub, there is an entire band missing between what sub can do and KEF can't.
Vocals: Pradigm monitors more crisp but then also doesn't seem natural, clinical (if it means what I think it means). KEF is more natural sounding, very melodious but then subdued
Instruments (voilin, guitars, piano): Crisp on paradigm, KEF in comparision not as bright and side by side you ask Paradigm is better, but after about 20 min of KEF they sound pleasing.

What am I expecting from M2? Sound more melodeous than Paradigm and missing band of bass present in M2. Paradigms giving me listening fatigue, KEF not, hope M2 does a better job.
