“Active speakers have huge advantages, which allow us to make systems that can outperform a traditional hi-fi system of the same price” – we speak to KEF’s chief technology officer about the LS Luxe

KEF LS Luxe active speakers.

KEF touted its LS Luxe wireless active speaker system as its “most ambitious creation to date”, and it has certainly been a success in our test rooms.

Costing £3500 / $4000 / AU$6375, the LS Luxe is a more premium proposition than the established £2199 / $2999 / AU$4295 price of the LS50 Wireless II, but the clear step up in performance means that, to our ears, the LS Luxe justifies that considerable extra outlay.
