The Best Wireless HiFi Speakers

Choosing a wireless HiFi speaker to augment your home with the ultimate audio setup isn’t a decision which should be made off the cuff - you want the best. With so many different wireless HiFi speakers available, each with different features and specifications, you want to make sure you’re selecting one which suits you.

To help you source the best wireless HiFi speaker, we have pulled together all the essential information you need to understand technology: in-depth insights into what they are, their benefits, the premium KEF collection, and how to choose the best model for your needs. 

A wireless HiFi speaker is an audio output device that allows other devices, such as laptops and smartphones, to connect to it using Bluetooth or WiFi. This means that you’ll be able to stream audio directly to the devices without the need for cables.

For a speaker to be considered ‘HiFi’, or ‘high-fidelity’, it must be able to achieve high-accuracy reproduction of audible frequencies and deliver minimal distortion of audio. As KEF products are engineered to the highest standard, featuring modern audio technology, we’re able to produce some of the most effective wireless HiFi speakers around. 

HiFi speakers provide a next-level listening experience:

• Extreme clarity: Speakers which can’t achieve the same levels of audio clarity that wireless HiFi speakers can mean that you have a subpar listening experience, no matter how extravagant your setup is. One of our most popular wireless HiFi speakers, LS60 Wireless, for example, can achieve high-fidelity sound up to 24bit/192kHz.

• Listen as intended: High-fidelity speakers allow you to experience music as was intended by the artist: in extremely high quality. 

• True audio immersion: If you’re an audiophile who truly values their experience, a high-fidelity speaker will provide full immersion and grace you with minute details such as the intricacy of a finger movement on an instrument or the subtle differences on live-recorded tracks.

Utilising our decades of engineering expertise, continuously fine-tuned since we began pioneering in the '60s, we’ve crafted a sensational range of high-fidelity wireless speakers. Our collection features speaker types both big and small, so you can find the perfect fit for your setup. 

LS60 Wireless consists of a tall, sleek casing packed with trademark KEF audio technology such as Uni-Q, which allows our devices to deliver astonishingly natural sound. Available in a range of colours, LS60 Wireless is easy to unpack and able to completely transform the listening experience in any room.

Offering a more compact alternative to the LS60 Wireless, the LS50 Wireless II doesn’t cut any corners on sound quality, resulting in the ultimate all-in-one wireless speaker system. Offering complete listening freedom, the LS50 Wireless II is compatible with all leading music services and allows you to enjoy all major audio formats too.

Designed to sit neatly on your shelf, LSX II packs high-fidelity sound into a tidy package. With multi-room functionality and plug-in compatibility, these wireless HiFi speakers can be seamlessly integrated into any setup. 

Choosing the Best Wireless HiFi Speaker When it comes to choosing ‘the best’ wireless HiFi speaker, it’s important to make your decision based on the features that suit you, not just what industry experts recommend. At KEF, we believe every listening experience is a unique and truly personal activity, so everything we do is to ensure that your experience is the best it can be. With that in mind, it’s important to focus your attention on the speaker’s key aspects.

Whilst high-fidelity audio is important, it’s crucial to find a speaker that produces a sound you truly connect with. The ideal audio system should be able to recreate a live sonic event so that it is indistinguishable from the original. The listeners should be transported to the environment of the live event. They should be convinced that they are sitting in the actual concert hall watching the artist perform. They should experience the acoustics of the space, perceive the locations of the instruments, interact with the space, and hear the change in the sound as they turn their heads toward the soloist.

KEF HiFi speakers feature a range of different technologies to help achieve our design goals, including Uni-Q, Uni-Core, Metamaterial Absorption Technology, and Single Apparent Source Technology.

Consider which devices you’d like to connect to your wireless speaker, whether it’s a smartphone, TV, or even a record player, then make sure to check that your desired speaker has the correct compatibility. 

If you have a variety of devices, some wireless and some wired, it’s best to choose a wireless speaker that also supports plug-and-play functionality - just like our wireless HiFi speaker range. Learn more in our guide to LS Wireless Collection connectivity.

Not every style of speaker will suit your home aesthetic and you shouldn’t be shy to let looks influence your final decision. While sound and other factors are important, you want to make sure that your speaker looks at home in any room you choose and fits with your internal décor.

Functionality and usability are important aspects of a wireless speaker, especially when you need to be able to fire off a range of commands from the comfort of your acoustic sweet spot. That’s why you should make sure your choice of speaker offers easily accessible features, such as a companion app to help with general control and customisation.

The KEF Connect app is designed to do exactly that and provides listeners with an intuitive user interface that allows them to interact with their KEF wireless speaker.

Equally as important, choosing a retailer that will provide sufficient and lasting customer support is crucial to getting the most out of your purchase. In the event that you need expert product support, or you would like to explore a different functionality offered by your speaker, you want guidance from the provider to help resolve the problem or utilise the entirety of your speaker’s capability.

At KEF, we provide a range of support to our customers and offer deeper insight into our products through articles on KEF.COM.

Since 1961, KEF has been producing high-end speakers that allow listeners to experience music as it was intended to be heard. With our modern range of wireless HiFi speakers available today, we’re able to invite you to share in that experience.
