4 things Technics needs to do to beat KEF’s LS50 Wireless II hi-fi system and one area where it’s better

KEF LS50 Wireless II streaming speaker system on a desk next to the the Technics SC-CX700.

I want sonic excellence from my hi-fi system but in these trying times where space is at a premium and it can be tricky finding the real estate for a hi-fi rack complete with a tower of separates, I’ve had to cut my cloth, and the number of boxes I own, accordingly.

Gone are the days of being able to park a Roksan Caspian M2 CD player and M2 amplifier, alongside a pair of Spendor A5s (oh how I miss that system). In today’s new world of tiny living spaces I have had to compromise. But I can’t complain too badly as I’ve migrated to the KEF LS50 Wireless II. An excellent all-in-one solution which combines amplification and streaming smarts into a pair of standmount speakers.
