How does a “downsized” set up sound compared to your earlier one in India ?

Ha ha, I feel lighter, and I feel less burdened.
The problem with super expensive and large set ups is, to get over protective with them, mobility is a challenge and need to spend on accessories such as clean power, better cable, etc. Such fancies of mine may work well in a place we will settle would for good..... may be back in India after 17 to 20 years from now. May be my AP set up will still work after 2 days as vintage audio gears

But now I am on move, KEF LSX II LT is a balance between compact size and good sound. I like its sound given the size is perfect for my requirement. I have placed them in a 20 feet by 18 feet bed room. The sound of KEF is tad brighter than AP, and AP used to fill the room with more body and sound stage particularly vocals, tablas and drums. But I should not compare these small bookshelf speakers to 3 way tower speakers, powered with Thyaga DAC and Amp. I think for my purpose I am quite happy with KEF. And I must say Tidal sourced music (compared to Spotify) makes a lot of difference.

And above all, beyond a certain quality of gadgets, to me the music/song, its harmony, melody and lyrics appeal more, than the equipments producing it.
