In this guide, learn how to set up speakers in your chosen space to achieve the listening experience you’ve been yearning for. Plus, we’ll give insights on cable choice, choosing the right speakers for your room size, and more for ultimate enjoyment.
Which KEF speakers are best for my room size?
Before you add speakers into your room, you want to ensure you’re marrying the correct speaker with the correct room size.
Below, we’ve given our suggestions for the ideal KEF wireless speakers by room size, both with and without subwoofer support.
Without a subwoofer and with a normal room height of 2.5m:

What is the Best Speaker Angle Towards the Listener (toe-in)?
Audiophiles tend to get bogged down in speaker angle, or toe-in. However, with KEF you can skip this stress. Our peerless speaker technology includes the sound dispersion of the Uni-Q driver so that you can enjoy phenomenal audio at almost any angle. The traditional ‘sweet spot’ is eliminated and everyone in the room can enjoy the same rich sound.
Depending on the shape of your room, you may want to experiment with speaker toe-in. We recommend starting with 0° toe-in, listening, and then toe-in in 2° increments and listening again to find your ultimate sweet spot.
How to Install Speakers on a Stand
Speaker installation on a stand helps to keep the sound clear and unobstructed, and KEF offers a range of elegant stands.
Our S1 floor stand presents our LSX II and LSX II LT perfectly, with a cable management system to hide wires so the aesthetics of your home are never compromised. Our integrated mounting system allows you to simply screw your speakers into place so that they sit securely.
Our S2 stand offers the same excellent visual appeal and structural support for our LS50 Meta and LS50 Wireless II and other KEF standmount speakers.
Each stand model has been carefully designed and created by the KEF Team. This ensures the accessories are built with the listener in mind raising your speakers to the ideal listening height.

Which Speaker Cables Should I Use?
Selecting the perfect cables can enhance a speaker's performance even further. At KEF, our C-link interspeaker cable, designed for our LSX II LT, is eight metres long for flexible placement and adds five metres to the speaker’s overall reach.
The K-Stream cable is compatible with our LS50 Wireless II and LS60 Wireless. Like the C-Link, it is eight metres long, so you can place it wherever you like. Plus, the cable’s premium specification ensures high-resolution data transfer between primary and secondary sources for crisp and crystal-clear sound.
