24-Bit/384kHz DAC: The KEF LSX II LT utilizes a 24-bit/384kHz DAC (digital-to-analog converter) for audiophile quality playback. The LSX II LT supports 2ch stereo digital music files up to 24-bit/384kHz, as well as DSD256.

KEF's Music Integrity Engine (MIE): All aspects of the LSX II LT's performance is aided by KEF’s proprietary Music Integrity Engine (MIE). This collection of unique Digital Signal Processing algorithms is optimized for the Uni-Q driver configuration, enabling it to deliver a perfectly timed performance, for better imaging and a tighter sound.

Bi-Amplification: The KEF LSX II LT speaker system employs two Class-D amplifiers inside each speaker to power the tweeters and woofers. 30 watts is allocated for each tweeter, while 70 watts is delivered to each woofer provides a total system power of 200 watts. The result is high-fidelity sound at any volume level with no distortion.

• The Primary speaker and the Secondary speaker connect to one another using the included 10' proprietary C-Link cable, allowing the Primary speaker to send an audio signal and and AC power to the Secondary speaker.
• Only the Primary speaker of the LSX II LT will need to be plugged into an AC wall outlet using the included 6.5' detachable AC power cord. The Secondary speaker is powered from the Primary speaker using the included 26.25' proprietary C-Link cable.

Uni-Q Driver Array: The LSX II LT powered speaker utilizes KEF's patented 11th generation Uni-Q driver configuration, in which the tweeter is mounted at the acoustic center of the midrange cone. By placing the tweeter at the center of the midrange and bass cone, it radically improves stereo imaging. This not only makes music sound clear, detailed and lifelike, it does so across a wider listening area. With both acting as a single point source, the sound is dispersed widely and evenly throughout the listening area allowing you to experience superbly defined and perfectly balanced stereo imagery with a wide "sweet spot". The LSX II LT's Uni-Q driver array consists of a 0.75" aluminum dome tweeter and 4.5" magnesium/aluminum alloy cone.

Optimized Curved Cabinet w/ Bass Port: The LSX II LT speaker system's gently curved cabinet was designed with extensive use of Finite Element Analysis as well as featuring constrained layer damping as found in KEF's high-end audiophile products. Optimized using Finite Element Analysis, The LSX II LT speaker system's contoured baffle improves sound dispersion, ensuring that sound waves travel outwards and are not reflected around the cabinet surface. On the rear cabinet of each speaker is a flared port for smooth bass response without "chuffing". The result is a purer sound and accurate bass, with less cabinet coloration.

Subwoofer Output: The KEF LSX II LT speaker system features a rear-panel mono-RCA subwoofer output for connection of a powered subwoofer (sold separately).

Mounting & Placement Options: Compact, elegant and incredibly versatile, the LSX II LT speaker system looks great and fits comfortably into practically any decor. There is a 1/4"-20 threaded insert on the bottom of each speaker that allows you to secure the speakers to KEF's S1 floor-stands, KEF's P1 desktop stands or KEF's B1 wall-mount brackets (all sold separately). With no need for a cable to connect the two speakers, and no separate amps or other equipment to worry about connecting, you can position them almost anywhere.

• For the best stereo experience, soundstage and stable connection, place the speakers within 10' apart from one another.
• The optimum distance between the speakers and the listener will depend on how far the Primary Speaker and the Secondary Speaker are separated.
• Try to keep the same distance of the speakers to the listener so it forms an equilateral triangle.
