KEF is universally respected for its award-winning speaker line-up that includes the high-end Blade and other notable floorstanding and bookshelf speakers along with a growing architectural speaker line.
However, its most popular models are the speakers included in the LS Wireless Collection.
Loudspeakers such as the award-winning LSX II and LS50 Wireless II speakers are considered benchmarks in the category for their sound quality and driver technology.
With breakthrough technologies including Uni-Q, Uni-Core, Metamaterial Absorption Technology(MAT) and Music Integrity Engine (MIE), the LS Wireless Collection has proven to be rather unique in its execution and overall performance.
In a strategic move coinciding with the launch of its LSX II LT (read our recent report), KEF has decided to reduce the prices of their LS Wireless Collection to provide a greater incentive for those who want to access a premium sound experience in attractively designed packages.
The newly priced collection includes the following entries, all of which are powered wireless speakers.
- LSX II LT Desktop Speakers: $999.99 (New!).
- LSX II Desktop Speakers: $1,299.99 (formerly $1,399)
- LS50 Wireless II Bookshelf Speakers: $2,499 {formerly $2,799)
- LS60 Wireless High-Fidelity Floorstanding Speakers: $4,999 (Formerly $6,999)
Tip: The speakers listed above can be purchased directly from KEF or through Authorized Dealers.
From Stephanie Scola, Vice President of Marketing at KEF America: “Our commitment has always been to offer the pinnacle of audio excellence while ensuring accessibility for all. This strategic shift in pricing reaffirms our dedication to providing unparalleled sound experiences without compromise. We are excited to empower more music enthusiasts worldwide with our innovative, high-fidelity solutions at competitive prices.”
This move is the result of KEF’s pursuit of production efficiency, leveraging economies of scale achieved through its Tier 1 manufacturing processes. Having overcome the challenges of logistics and parts supply posed by recent global uncertainties, KEF is now passing on substantial savings to the customer while affirming its commitment to delivering unbeatable value.
With a vision to remain on top in the high-fidelity speaker space, KEF’s LS Wireless Collection’s new pricing strategy aims to expand market accessibility, cater to evolving customer needs, and reinforce its position as the leader in advanced audio technologies.
