Product Description
KEF LS60 wireless speakers are active floorstanders that take the concept to a whole new level, offering incredible performance with streaming and a variety of other sources, in a choice of several striking finishes.
As part of KEFs 60th anniversary celebrations, the LS60 Wireless takes the concept of KEF's award winning LS50 wireless II speaker technology along with the imagination of Michael Young and the KEF design team, giving birth to these hugely impressive floorstanding active speakers.
Get Connected
On the LS60 Wireless, you can harness the power and performance of the elite W2 platform that is the same onboard the LS50 Wireless II. This allows for the plethora of audiological options, with no degradation in performance or quality of audio delivery, be it a wired, wireless, internet or other source the LS60 Wireless truly is at the top of the class for performance in the floorstanding world.
Super Streaming
KEF as always have been innovative in their approach to streaming platforms as they have grown in popularity and this again is shown on the LS60 Wireless. With compatibility for Google Chromecast, Apple AirPlay 2, Bluetooth 4.2 as well as Wi-Fi & Roon Ready* (*arriving in autumn 2022*) you are covered on all wireless connectivity bases. Add in support for Spotify (via Spotify Connect), Tidal (via Tidal Connect), Amazon Music, Qobuz, Deezer, QQ Music (via Q Play), Internet Radio & podcasts you can be assured you are never short of options for your listening delight.
KEF Driver Technology
The LS60 Wireless as ever doesn’t scrimp or make any compromises when it comes to the drive units that make each speaker tick, with it's beating heart driven using the same technology as the flagship Blade Meta series to create a single apparent source speaker which enables you to truly feel each and every pluck of the guitar or crash of a symbol when they are being used.
Also optimised further for the LS60 Wireless is the 12th Generation of KEF’s Uni-Q array system which harnesses a 19mm (0.75 inch) High-Frequency driver that is packed with Metamaterial absorption technology to truly empower those higher frequencies. Mid-range is taken care of by the fantastic 100mm (4 inch) aluminium cone driver to deliver that crisp sound you would expect from a KEF speaker, which leads onto the bass drive units which are a quad set of 135mm (5.25 inch) Uni-core force cancelling drivers that strike that bass with purity and passion that is unheard of in a wireless floorstanding speaker.
Powerful and Refined
With such a wide array of talents, you would think the LS60 Wireless speakers were power hungry units, but you would be wrong. Thanks to the hard painstaking work by master technicians and craftsman the LS60 Wireless only consume 450W whilst in use and <2.0W whilst in standby, making them power efficient without using much energy.
Unlike some traditional set-ups where amplifiers need to be carefully matched to the speakers, KEF engineers have chosen internal amplification that perfectly matches the drivers and design, making all of this power available without compromise on sound.
