Okay, so... Yeah, I find it very, terribly ugly (especially if compared to Stage or something like the Devialet Dione or KEF XIO - personally I'm not a massive fan of the Theatre design either but it's waay better than this). But I'd be okay with that. Thing is, it is basically only as powerful as S

Final update: I removed the KW2 completely and connected the KC62 to the XIO using the subwoofer cable I bought. And now everything works. The subwoofer is properly recognized, the setup behaves normally, and the KC62 works as expected. No pairing issues, no lost sync after idle, no weird wireless b

Why did you buy active speakers if you went with the Wiim? The KEF LSX II allow an analog input, so it would be standalone + the turntable. It also has built-in Airplay1/2, Chromecast and more. In terms of sound there's no comparison, since switching I haven't looked back. If you position them corre

Weird. Have you tried a subwoofer cable? Personally, I’d blame the KW2. The last round of firmware updates were really dodgy. Maybe reset the XIO and see what happens? I have 2 KC62s connected to LS60s and a KUBE 10b connected to LSX.No issues at all, except the LSX liking to be restarted occasional

I finally got the KW2 to pair, but in a really weird way. Resetting the XIO didn’t fix it. The KW2 kept blinking cyan/white. What eventually triggered the sync was going into KEF Connect > Subwoofer > KW2 firmware update. The update itself is broken and spins forever, but launching that update someh

I’d lower it a bit. All you need is a decent sound system for it!Check out the KEF XIO sound bar. Wall mount it.

It probably depends on the soundbar. The KEF XIO is supposed to be great. I’d prefer more stereo separation than 3 or 4 feet. And bigger speakers.Most of my listening is music, not video streaming.

I don’t think it’s the best. There are better solutions: dragon nakamichi, kef xio. I don’t think sennheiser has experience in speakers ever.

Airplay 1 does cast 16-bit/44.1Khz lossless. All KEF W2 speakers with network connectivity support this. Does Apple let you choose to use this when they also support Airplay 2? Nope. Airplay 2 is indeed fixed to 256Kbps AAC or DD+ Atmos for the Atmos audio, which is not supported by many players or

All W2 models will be supported for Surround channels later this year. They are still working on adding Front channels as well, which is planned for late 2026. Currently I am enjoying my XIO Soundbar with the Kube 12 I already had. The Bass is already great without the Sub, but for the real low dept
