KEF LS50 Wireless
The KEF LS50 Wireless is an outstanding active speaker package that offers outstanding hi-fi sound, minimal fuss and a whole lot of convenience.
Outstanding sound ; Great choice of inputs ; Easy and flexible to set up and use ; Neat design
App isn't as responsive as it could be ; Can't control physical inputs via the app
An outstanding active speaker system that brings hi-fi sound and plug-and-play convenience together for performance that can’t be topped.

KEF LS50 Wireless Speakers review
An impressive package of convenience and sound quality
Breathtaking sound quality ; Tons of inputs ; Beautiful, compact design
No AirPlay or Google Cast ; Basic remote ; Slow mobile app
The KEF LS50 Wireless is an amazing sounding pair of speaker made for the new audiophile who doesn’t want to think about picking different source components. While the LS50W is expensive, you’ll be hard pressed to put together a better sounding package...

KEF LS50
Awards 2012 Product of the Year - Stereo Speakers. A fine way to celebrate KEF's 50th anniversary
Transparency, impressive resolution ; excellent bass for size ; fine build and finish
Demanding of partnering equipment
Of course, the LS50’s innate transparency means that any flaws in the partnering kit will be apparent. But get it right and you have what is one of the best standmounters below £1000, and easily one of KEF’s most musical efforts in years.
