A film about the new KEF LSX Soundwave edition %

What does KEF + Terence Conran equal…. well the new LSX Soundwave Edition , featuring in my new film.

Covered in a new fabric called Kvadrat and meant to tie stylishly into living spaces, I try these speakers against Totem’s KIN Play in this film and in homage to Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart too.

The notion that cheaper HiFi is inferior in the context of value for money, is firmly consigned to the HiFi nonsense scrap heap, here. These KEF’s sonic modus operandi is neutrality, dispersion for size, and very decent dynamic and detail capabilities at the price.
