Definitely not showing any unboxing how lame is that, suffice to say that the packaging is state of the art and that one person can unpack them without issue.
Set -up is extremely straightforward, using Roon with mine.


Sound quality is exceptional.

A potential client came over to hear the Kiis so they were up and running and the Kef’s are very Kii like , pin point image very uncoloured sound as you would expect from the measurements.
I will post a screenshot of the ‘expert’ parameters available no PEQ but boundary control superb sub integration.
They retail for £6k just add sources of your choice,


There really isn’t anything to dislike.( unless you enjoy swapping equipment and /or adding distortion)

Nothing you haven’t seen before this is the ‘remote’ section of the KEF ‘connect’ amp, simply touch the icon to switch between sources or use the remote.

Just listening to Lana SQ is really superb even my wife who has endured a great many loudspeakers thought they were super, voice is ( subjective warning ) holographic.
Really impressive, £6k isn’t cheap but … for what you get.

So in terms of operation, no different than the LS50 wireless II or the LSX II. I guess the same goes for parameters and adjustments.

Have heard some complaints that the slave speaker randomly disconnects, regardless of whether it's connected wirelessly, or with the ethernet cable. Had any experiences like that so far?

So this mean you are now a full-line KEF dealer?

At the moment I can retail the Wireless products, I wouldn’t mind a pair of Blades here, although I would prefer an active pair !

Well congrats on the KEF account status. I retailed full line KEF for 5 years and it was a very good experience. Then I provided warranty service for full line KEF product and that was a pleasure too. The company and reps are spot on.

We actually started with KEF years ago when the first wireless 50s were released, I liked them then, I hope KEF continue along the active measurement led route.

The last time she went away upon her return she was confronted by these, you can sort of understand why she prefers the KEFs.

All she ever said of the Danleys was ‘when are they coming to pick them up’.

Same here with my Revel F208s.
