KEF has announced that its LS50 Meta and LS50 Wireless II speakers are now available in two new color options: Moss Green and Sand Shell.
The KEF LS50 Wireless II is a fully active wireless stereo speaker system that delivers KEF’s signature sound coupled with a high-performance wireless capability. LS50 Wireless II has been built on a whole new acoustic platform, the LS50 Meta passive loudspeakers, while the brand-new wireless platform has been engineered from the ground up. Other features include active electronics, digital signal processing, a wireless streaming platform, and the KEF Connect app.
When it comes to physical technology, LS50 Wireless II takes its lead from KEF’s LS50 Meta passive loudspeakers. Metamaterial Absorption Technology (MAT) is a highly complex maze-like structure, where each of the intricate channels efficiently absorbs a specific frequency. When combined, the channels act as an acoustic black hole, absorbing 99% of the unwanted sound that comes from the rear of the tweeter, eliminating the resulting distortion and providing a purer, more natural sound.
KEF’s Uni-Q point source configuration delivers a more detailed, accurate and integrated three-dimensional sound image, which is dispersed so evenly throughout the room that the “sweet spot” is wherever you are in the room. Using simulation and analysis tools, KEF’s engineers have developed the 12th generation Uni-Q with MAT driver array, to reduce high-frequency distortion in the mid-frequency driver. The result is reduced coloration, less distortion, and a sound that is more transparent and life-like than previously possible. The other frequencies are equally well served, with crystal clear midrange and room-filling, deep and articulate bass.
The performance of LS50 Wireless II is aided by KEF’s bespoke Music Integrity Engine, a collection of bespoke digital signal processing algorithms optimized for the new Uni-Q with MAT driver array.
LS50 Wireless II also has plenty of power on tap. Each tweeter benefits from being driven by a new 100-watt Class A/B amplifier that delivers a detailed treble performance. Dedicated 280-watts Class D amplifiers power the mid/bass drivers.
