Short answer: the KEF Q Concerto Meta. It ranks #11 of 222 bookshelf speakers by sound quality, rated 4.6/5, at $999.99; the Power Sound Audio MT-110-M ranks #63, rated 4.1/5, and costs $1,350, so there is not much of a tradeoff to weigh.
The KEF Q Concerto Meta is the more accurate, deeper-bass option. A neutral three way bookshelf speaker that sounds consistent from seat to seat, with smooth treble that many rivals at its price lack. Its measured preference score, a predictor of how neutral it sounds, is 6.01 against 2.53 for the Power Sound Audio MT-110-M. Its bass reaches about 53Hz before falling 3dB, against 113Hz for the Power Sound Audio MT-110-M. Watch for: Radiation pattern measures about ±50°, narrower than the reviewer’s preferred ±60° for a stronger sense of envelopment.
Why pick the Power Sound Audio MT-110-M: A USA made horn tweeter bookshelf speaker with a 10 inch woofer, high sensitivity, and great dynamics without brightness. Watch for: A mid-range bump makes the tonal balance sound too thick and needs 2-3 bands of EQ to flatten out; correcting it also pulls measured sensitivity down to about 90-91dB in practice.
Buy the KEF Q Concerto Meta. It is rated higher for sound quality than the Power Sound Audio MT-110-M and costs less, which makes it the one to get unless you need something the other one does better.
