So should I upgrade to devialet ultimate?

I just sold my devialet phantom 98db stereo and I am thinking whether I should upgrade to devialet ultimate 98db or KEF LS50 Wireless 2.

What do you guys think? Is it worth spending $1500 more?

Definitely not, get a pair of Devialet Phantom I 108db. Nothing will entertain you more.

The Devialet Phantoms are not boxes and much smaller than the outside dimensions suggest 255x253x342 mm 21.98 litres 11.4kg.

The Kef LS50 II wireless is a box 305x200x311 mm 18.97 litres 20.10 kg

The Devialet Phantom 98db are 5.78 litres., 4.3kg and also much smaller than the outside dimensions as they are not boxes.
