How to Choose Wireless Speakers

5 mins read
Choosing the perfect wireless HiFi speaker to elevate your audio experience is an art form, especially for discerning listeners. Every audiophile's needs are unique, from the nuances of sound quality to the elegance of design. 

Whether you're curious about how to achieve the best possible hifi sound for your budget or need guidance on which wireless speaker is best for your space, his blog will help you navigate the world of wireless speakers with ease. 

Our KEF experts share how to choose wireless speakers that align with your preferences so that you can discover the ideal LS wireless HiFi Speaker to match your sophisticated taste and auditory requirements.

How to Choose Wireless Speakers Based on Size

The size and shape of the room is some of the biggest factors to consider when determining the ideal speaker for your needs. In a small space, a large speaker can feel overwhelming. Instead, we’d recommend a more compact speaker, like LSX II or LSX II LT, which fits comfortably and leaves room for other essentials.

You'll need a speaker in a larger room to deliver powerful, room-filling sound. Larger speakers, like LS60 Wireless, provide the necessary power to reach every corner of a big space. Whether you're hosting a gathering with an incredible playlist or enjoying a relaxing movie-watching evening, these powerful floorstanding speakers will envelop you in detailed audio.

How to Choose Wireless Speakers Based on Cost

When investing in state-of-the-art wireless HiFi speakers, budget is a crucial consideration. Finding the highest quality audio speakers within your price range is essential. It’s worth keeping in mind that, as the LS Wireless models are complete active hifi speaker systems with built-in amplification, there is no need to spend money on additional components so you can achieve true hifi sound without having to factor in the costs of AV separates such as amplifiers and DACs. 

With options like the LSX II LT, you can enjoy advanced, high-quality sound for a lower budget. This model retains much of the cutting-edge technology of our LS Wireless Speakers, without compromising any sound quality, at a more entry-level price.

How to Choose Wireless Speakers Based on Aesthetics

Our speakers are crafted to delight the ears, but we all know that they are seen as well as heard. If you've created the perfect interior, you'll want speakers that complement your decor. This means carefully considering factors like shape and colour.

With the design brilliance of Michael Young, our LS Wireless Speakers are as visually stunning as they are acoustically excellent. Available in a range of colours, these speakers can seamlessly blend with any interior or stand out as a feature piece. Not sure how they’ll look in your space?

Other Considerations When Choosing a Wireless Speaker

When selecting a wireless speaker, there are additional factors to consider beyond the speaker itself.

    Should You Combine Your Wireless Speaker with a Subwoofer?

    A subwoofer is dedicated to reproducing the very lowest frequencies of a soundscape, delivering deep, rumbling bass while your wireless speakers handle the rest. Pairing a subwoofer with your LS Wireless Speaker can enhance your immersive audio experience.  And, as each LS Wireless speaker model includes a dedicated subwoofer output, integration is simple.

    For more details on this exceptional technology, see our subwoofer guide or read our blog on integrating your wireless speakers with a subwoofer for perfectly harmonised audio.

      LS60 Wireless

      LS60 Wireless are our floorstanding speakers, with a sleek plug and play design that allows plenty of room left over for dancing, a vast cinematic screen, or whatever else you need.

      These speakers are perfect for flooding large rooms with sound. An ideal party speaker and incredible at ensuring every guest enjoys stellar audio on group movie night. Each of these speakers produce 500W of power output for the two Uni-Core bass drivers and 100W each for the mid range and high frequencies of the Uni-Q driver leading to a system output of 1.400W peak power.
