The "holographic" sound quality thanks to the latest Uni-Q drivers and MAT technology
The design of this pair of speakers is flawless: tall and slim enclosures with a narrow front panel, in which a coaxial Uni-Q driver is installed. This is already the 12th generation of the company's transducers, but for the new model, the driver was developed from scratch, although it visually resembles its predecessors. The Uni-Q in LS60 Wireless is the smallest in the family and includes a 10-centimeter aluminum mid-frequency diffuser and a 19-millimeter aluminum dome tweeter. The drivers work together with Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT). MAT is a plate made of metamaterial with a labyrinth structure. The plate is installed behind the magnet system of the driver and absorbs, according to KEF, 99% of the resonances from the driver's operation to make the sound more detailed and transparent. Resonances after this labyrinth are no longer transmitted to the speaker cabinet.
The LS60 Wireless uses Uni-Core low-frequency drivers from the KEF KS62 subwoofer. To not "weigh down" the appearance of the elegant speakers, the 14-centimeter transducers are placed on the side panels. Two magnetic systems unite them around themselves, and the placement allows the focused sound to emanate from almost one point - these are almost ideal conditions for listening.
High power
The total output power of the KEF LS60 Wireless speaker system is an impressive 1400W. In a pair of LS60 Wireless speakers, one is the master speaker (with all the connection components) and the other is the slave speaker. Both speakers are active, with DSP and three amplifiers: class D for low and mid frequencies, and class AB for the tweeter.
Center of attention
You can fall in love with the unique style of the KEF LS60 Wireless even before you hear it. The design of this elegant speaker was created by Michael Young and the KEF product design team, who have merged modernity and classic elements in the LS60 Wireless. There are several finish colors to choose from: titanium gray, mineral white, and royal blue. The KEF LS60 Wireless will fit in any modern interior.
True wireless speakers
Most wireless speakers transmit music over a wireless network, but require a wire to connect the speakers themselves. In the case of the KEF LS60 Wireless, wireless connectivity means a wireless connection for both audio streaming and linking the speakers together. The capabilities for transmitting digital signals vary depending on the connection. Wireless connection works with signals up to 24-bit/96kHz, while wired connection can transmit signals up to 24-bit/192kHz. The speakers can decode DSD up to DSD256 and MQA. The maximum signal resolution that can be sent to the speakers is 24-bit/384kHz.
Stream Music and Internet Radio
Download the KEF Connect app (available for Android and iOS) and enjoy easy access to all your favorite streaming services, internet radio, and podcasts. The app, compatible with Spotify Connect (Premium account required), TIDAL, Amazon Music, Qobuz, Deezer, and more, allows you to access an almost endless stream of music. The app also makes it easy to access your favorite internet radio stations and podcasts. The all-in-one KEF Connect app brings together all the music services you need.
AirPlay 2, Chromecast, and UPnP - the choice is yours
Connect the speakers to your network via Wi-Fi or Ethernet and stream music the way you prefer. The speakers also support connection via AirPlay 2, Chromecast, and Bluetooth. For those who prefer streaming from their own music library, the KEF LS60 Wireless supports UPnP (Universal Plug n' Play) and Roon.
Created for high-resolution music
In addition to a wide frequency range that allows for maximum utilization of Hi-Res music, the KEF LS60 Wireless supports multiple high-resolution formats. The speaker system decodes MQA (Master Quality Authenticated), which is used in TIDAL Masters. Being Roon Ready means that the speakers are compatible with the Roon music system.
LS60 Wireless - the center of entertainment
The KEF LS60 Wireless easily connects to a home media system via HDMI, optical, coaxial, and RCA inputs. Connect your TV via HDMI eARC, gaming consoles and TV set-top boxes via optical/coaxial inputs, or CD players and turntables via RCA.
