Are Audiophile-Grade Wireless Speakers Blasphemy?

Not When You’re Talking About the KEF Wireless Collection

Just as the breathtaking vistas of Utah offer a feast for the eyes, KEF speakers offer an auditory banquet for the discerning audiophile. Wireless speakers are all the rage these days, from Bluetooth battery-powered portables to plug-and-play self-powered Wi-Fi speakers. But do the words "wireless" and "audiophile" mix when talking about speakers? They do when we're talking about KEF's extraordinary wireless speaker collection: The LS60 Wireless, LS50 Wireless II, and LSX II. These speakers embody the zenith of wireless audio, delivering unparalleled sound quality to your Salt Lake City home.

In the first blog earlier this month, we covered KEF’s rich history of acoustic innovation. We then discussed two of KEF’s highest-value speaker lines, the R Series and the LS50 Meta, both of which bring audiophile-worthy performance to your listening experience without breaking the bank. In this last installment, we'll cover the KEF Wireless Collection, a convenient way to enjoy genuine hi-fi sound with fewer connections and complexity. Please keep reading!

The LS60 Wireless

The recently introduced LS60 Wireless brings all-in-one hi-fi performance to a tower speaker. Incorporating KEF's groundbreaking Uni-Core technology, the unique design allows for a compact form without sacrificing bass depth. This means you get a slim tower speaker system that fits comfortably in most rooms yet delivers the deep, resonant bass typically associated with much larger speakers. Benefitting from KEF's new Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT), it delivers the performance you wouldn't expect from a wireless speaker. The LS60 is designed to be compatible with everything. You can play high-resolution tracks, connect to wireless devices via Bluetooth, Airplay, and Chromecast, stream directly from Spotify and Tidal Connect, and more. On the wired side—if you choose—you can connect a turntable via RCA, a TV via HDMI Arc, and optical and coaxial inputs for CD players, game consoles, or other components. The LS60 is streamlined hi-fi for virtually any source and points the way to a future of simplified hi-fi enjoyment. 

The LS50 Wireless II

The LS50 Wireless II started the trend of more convenient, high-performance sound with wireless technology fully in tune with today's streaming audio experience. Also benefiting from MAT, KEF 12th generation Uni-Q, and KEF's custom DSP tuning, this speaker redefines performance from a small speaker. Listen to anything with all the same wireless options as the LS60 using KEF's new W2 wireless platform that covers every wireless input you need. Hear the highest-resolution MQA and DSD tracks for an immersive experience with every session. A treat for the ears is a given with KEF, but these speakers are also industrial design art, with rich matte finishes and a special edition Crimson Red. 

The KEF LSX II

Who says big sounds can't come out of a small package? The KEF LSX II turns that convention on its ear, bringing your music to life from an incredibly compact system. Despite its size, it features the same wireless connectivity options as its bigger brethren for convenient playback from all the major streaming sources and intelligent devices. If you want to add more bass, an RCA subwoofer output lets you use any sub, but you'd be well served with one like the KEF KC62, with diminutive dimensions and outsized performance that matches the spirit of the LSX II. These compact speakers excel at many applications, from near-field positioning on your desk to filling a living room with pristine sound. 

Whether you’re looking for traditional or wireless speakers, KEF imbues its entire line with extraordinary performance. To learn more about these KEF speakers or hear and see them in our showroom, contact Show & Tell AV Solutions today—we would love to help you!
