Product Manuals

Q: Does the speakers support wireless multi-room audio?
A: These speakers do offer wireless multi-room audio support.
Q: Can the speakers be connected to a TV?
A: You can connect the LSX II speakers to your laptop, TV, and many other devices.

A: The product weight of the LSXII Wireless Bookshelf Speakers is 15.6 pounds.
Q: What is the size of the tweeter in the speakers?
A: The tweeter size in the speakers is 0.75 inches.
A: You should be able to use Airplay to achieve multipoint with no additional hardware, but if you don't have Apple devices to stream from or you're listening to physical media that won't work. An alternative streaming method would be Alexa: your receiver already has support built in, but you'll need to plug an Echo Dot into the LSX to make that work, it will only support streaming sources, and you'll have to control it with voice commands. Roon is an elegant streaming solution, but if you don't already use it it's probably not worth the equipment and subscription cost just for this. Bluetooth will allow you to stream anything you play on the receiver to the LSX, but Bluetooth will limit range and audio quality. And of course you can physically wire the receiver to the LSX, but at that point you might as well just buy passive speakers. So the short answer is, "it depends."

LSXII delivers room-filling, natural, accurate sound from any source thanks to the knowledge and experience of KEF's talented engineers and the iconic Uni-Q driver array.
Pump up the bass with this pair of KEF Q Series bookshelf speakers. The computational fluid dynamics port design reduces fidelity-robbing vibrations, while the Uni-Q driver array creates an amazing surround sound in your room. These KEF Q Series bookshelf speakers feature a walnut finish to add an upscale touch to your space.
When it comes to physical technology, LS50 Wireless II takes its lead from KEF’s LS50 Meta passive loudspeakers. A truly revolutionary tool in the KEF acoustic armoury, Metamaterial Absorption Technology1 (MAT) is a highly complex maze-like structure, where each of the intricate channels efficiently absorbs a specific frequency. When combined, the channels act as an acoustic black hole, absorbing 99% of the unwanted sound that comes from the rear of the tweeter, eliminating the resulting distortion and providing a purer, more natural sound.
The LS50 Meta has inherited its distinctive good looks from the original LS50, with its low-diffraction, curved baffle precision modelled around the Uni-Q driver array. The curved front is subtly mirrored by the gently radiused rear panel, while both the port exit and speaker terminals have been elegantly recessed and softened visually. The LS50 Meta’s extremely rigid cabinet is optimised for the best performance, with smooth curved surfaces that help radiate sound out across the baffle without any interference

The sound is very good, the only thing I don't like is that you have to use an application to play the music.

Perfect for the right use case
Excellent hifi grade speakers. Versatile and have many solutions incorporated into them. They would be great for a desktop solution, but I bought them for my office TV/multimedia setup. I have HDMI to the TV, optical to my CD player, and run my phono preamp to the aux input. Yes, the aux input bypasses the internal dac, however the other inputs don't have that option. That said, the internal dac and amplification (both speakers have their own isolated amplification and power cables) are fantastic. Not to mention Spotify and Tidal Connect. Changing inputs happens with the remote, I don't mind using it and quickly panning left and right to select the input (LED indicators on the main speaker). This to me, this product is a no brainer over a soundbar system, or a great 2ch/2.1 for a small room. I fully intend on adding a KC62 to it in the future with their wireless subwoofer adapter. Love the KEF Products - lots of quality of life here. I also purchased the matching stands for cable management, I included some phots.
