KEF is launching what it\u2019s calling its most ambitious creation to date: the LS LUXE, a luxury wireless speaker set developed in partnership with designer Ross Lovegrove<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt KEF, we have always aimed to redefine the listening experience and make it truly inspiring. LS LUXE is that vision realized,\u201d said Grace Lo, President & Head of Global Marketing at KEF.<\/p>\n

A Closer Look at the New LS Luxe Speakers from KEF <\/p>\n

At its core, the LS LUXE uses KEF\u2019s 12th-generation 6.5-inch Uni-Q driver found in speakers like the LS50<\/a>. Going into greater detail, KEF also says that the Uni-Q assembly has been mechanically decoupled with a flexible chassis to isolating vibration and maintain the integrity of the original audio.<\/p>\n

Accompanying MAT Technology works to absorb 99% of unwanted rear sound from the tweeter to virtually eliminate distortion\u2014delivering a wider sweet spot, exceptionally low coloration, and an immersive, natural listening experience.<\/p>\n

New to the LS LUXE, however, is what KEF is calling Velocity Control Technology (VECO). A patent-pending innovation, VECO technically first appeared in the XIO soundbar<\/a>, making LS LUXE the first set of speakers to feature it. According to KEF, VECO is described as a closed-loop system that uses a velocity sensor to monitor the Uni-Q driver in real time, feeding data instantly to a custom amplifier that corrects any movement inconsistencies.<\/p>\n

All of these features are then backed up by KEF\u2019s proprietary Music Integrity Engine (MIE), which uses finely tuned DSP algorithms to maintain definition and exceptional performance as amplifiers work harder.<\/p>\n

KEF also claims the LS LUXE is easy to set up, being configurable through KEF Connect App.<\/p>\n

LS LUXE Specifications <\/p>\n

\"KEF<\/a><\/p>\n

Moving beyond hardware and into raw specs, KEF states the LS LUXE combines a 100W Class AB and 280W Class D current-drive amplifier per speaker with a frequency range of 35 Hz \u2013 47 kHz and frequency response of 42 Hz \u2013 28 kHz depending on the EQ settings.<\/p>\n

The speakers reportedly support high-fidelity, lossless formats up to 24-bit\/384kHz and multi-room audio throughout the home, being built on KEF\u2019s W2 Wireless Platform. This also gives users direct access to services such as Tidal, Amazon Music, Qobuz, Deezer, and more, directly from their native apps via Spotify Connect, Tidal Connect, QPlay, AirPlay or Google Cast.<\/p>\n

LS LUXE also supports a wide range of wired connections including HDMI eARC, analogue, optical and coaxial. Each speaker includes a dedicated subwoofer output, and users can even stream from local NAS drives or music servers, supporting lossless formats up to 24-bit\/384kHz PCM and DSD.<\/p>\n

Finishes and Accessories <\/p>\n

\"KEF<\/a><\/p>\n

The LS LUXE is available in three colorways: Dusk Titanium, Eclipse Black, and Mineral White. Each speaker also comes with the C3 Remote for manual control. Optional S-LUXE floor stands offer integrated cable management for a clean, professional look while the K-Stream interspeaker cable allows high-resolution audio transfer with up to 8 meters of placement flexibility. The KW1 wireless subwoofer adapter kit enables a completely cable-free connection between LS LUXE and KEF subwoofers.<\/p>\n

Why Integrators Should Take Note <\/p>\n

Continuing KEF\u2019s collaboration with visionary designer Ross Lovegrove, LS LUXE carries forward a legacy of icons, including Muon, Mu headphones, and the Muo portable speaker with its sculptural appearance hiding away some of KEF\u2019s most advanced accoustic technologies to date.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Pricing and Availability <\/p>\n

The LS LUXE will be available for $3,999.99.
