hat a pleasure to find an inexpensive component that excites a high-end reviewer. And a product from KEF! KEF Chorales were the first decent speakers I owned. Modestly priced, high performance, utterly reliable, what's not to like

I keep getting older. By the time you read this, I will begenuinelyold. When I was genuinely young, I bellyached, "Wires are the worst part of hi-fi-there's gotta be a way to get rid of them.
Good looking and compact enough to be placed on a TV console, they are easy to use with their own power amplifier and offer the stereo imaging that is lacking in even the best soundbars in the market.
Hi usually don't submit reviews and these are the first pair of expensive speakers I've purchased. First I'd say, if you get a "good" pair they are incredible. I have them hooked up to a computer through a USB to SPDIF convertor and they are great for near field listening.
Great Sound
Horrible App and Setup Inconsistent
I am really enjoying these speakers. I have high end audio speakers in several rooms, but I had been using a cheaper Bluetooth speaker in my small office. I decided to upgrade but I didn't want the complexity of an amplifier and passive speakers.
I'm hardly alone in admiring KEF's outstanding LS50 Wireless stereo-speakers-cum-entire-wireless-system. Ever since its launch in 2016, reviewers have been queuing up to pay homage and customers to pay the £2k asking price. In hi-fi terms, the LS50 Wireless is a classic-in-waiting.
Good build and finish in a number of colours; Great wireless stability; Excellent sound from any number of sources
Short of outright scale and dynamism; More apps than should be necessary
The KEF LSX is a two way active speaker with decoding on board. Until comparatively recently, KEF was, barring a subwoofer amp here and there, content...
Sounds absolutely superb; Great piece of industrial design; Useful spread of inputs
App is sluggish and unresponsive; Sample rates restricted over wireless; Might benefit from Tidal Masters support
There's no denying that these speakers provide a high level of audio quality, with a warm and balanced sound. Although they are by no means cheap, we think they are a fantastic investment for any audiophile who doesn't want to clutter their home with huge towers.
Fantastic audio quality; Powerful bass; Compact design; Lots of connections
Expensive; No built-in voice assistant
Overall, I'm a huge fan of the KEF LSX and, yes, I'm aware they're costly, at one pound short of a grand. But, in the context of rivals such as the Mu-so, their larger and more expensive siblings, the LS50 Wireless, and more traditional Hi-Fi streaming products they're actually pretty good value.
Rich; muscular and detailed sound; Incredible looks; Immersive soundstage; Superb connectivity and app support
Ethernet link required for reliable connection; No digital assistant
The KEF LSX Wireless Music System offer a lot of bang for a lot of bucks. But regardless of price, the sound quality is hard to beat with any speakers...
Exquisite sound quality; Exceptional build quality; Beautiful design
No automatic wake up and source selection upon signal detection; IEC 320 C5 AC power connector; not 320 C13
