Key Technologies
Uni-Core®
Maximises bass, minimises space
Uni-Core® combines both back-to-back drivers into a single motor system. The overlapping, concentrically arranged voice coils allows for far more driver excursion than in other force cancelling design, unlocking more output and depth from less space.
Explore MoreMusic Integrity Engine®
KEF's proprietary DSP algorithms
Each unique Music Integrity Engine® is precisely tuned to allow all components within the individual subwoofer to work in perfect harmony, elevating the overall performance for remarkable integrity, detail, and accuracy of sound.
Explore MoreP-Flex Surround
Engineered for precision
The pleated structure resists internal air pressure, allowing the driver to move precisely as dictated by the audio signal. The result is a deeper bass extension and more accurate, detailed bass reproduction.
The benchmark of subwoofers
Our flagship twin 9-inch driver force cancelling subwoofer is hand built in the UK. A truly extraordinary subwoofer, Reference 8b delivers exceptional bass precision and control.
Redefining subwoofer excellence
These class-leading subwoofers use technology derived from the Reference and R Series to deliver accuracy and incredible depth. The twin-driver force-cancelling configuration with P-Flex Surround design deliver performance beyond their room-friendly dimensions. KC92 is the perfect balance of discreet size and impressive performance, while KC62 is when size matters.

Frequent Asked Questions
What are the differences between LSX II LT and LSX II?
The LSX II LT is the streamlined version of the award-winning LSX II, featuring the same key features and technologies, but at a price you'll love by paring back some of the secondary features. For more details, please check here.
What accessories are compatible with LSX II LT?
Does THE LSX II LT speaker need an amplifier?
No. Both the primary and secondary speakers of LSX II LT are equipped with dedicated amplifiers for the tweeter and woofer.
Do I have to plug LSX II LT in?
Yes, LSX II LT must be connected to a power source. However, you will only need one power socket for the primary speaker, as the secondary speaker is powered through the primary speaker via an interspeaker connection.
Are the supplied USB-C interspeaker cable for LSX II LT and the C-Link interspeaker cable compatible with data transmission or device charging?
No, neither the supplied USB-C interspeaker cable nor the C-Link interspeaker cable are designed for data transmission or device charging. These cables are specifically intended for connecting the LSX II LT speakers and should not be used for other purposes.
Can I use other USB-C cables to replace the supplied USB-C interspeaker cable for LSX II LT?
We strongly recommend using the original USB-C interspeaker cable supplied with your LSX II LT speakers or the separately sold C-Link interspeaker cable. Both cables are proprietary and specifically designed to meet LSX II LT’s safety and performance standards. Using other USB-C cables may not provide the same level of compatibility and could potentially impact the performance and safety of your speakers. For more details, please check here.

Frequent Asked Questions
What is a subwoofer?
A subwoofer is a speaker specialised in reproducing the very lowest frequencies in music and movies. Adding a subwoofer to your sound system builds out the sound further for superb detail and allows you to feel the depth of the bass in your chest physically. Typical examples of low frequency sounds include the bass guitar in Another One Bites the Dust or explosions in action movies.
What are active and passive subwoofers?
All of our standalone subwoofers are active, meaning that they have an amplifier built in so that you can enjoy rumbling, deep bass right away. A passive subwoofer doesn’t have an amplifier built-in, so it will have to be connected to an amp to drive powerful sound. All our architectural subwoofers are passive.
Where should a subwoofer be placed?
It can take a little bit of work to find the best place for your subwoofer. The room, your speaker/listening position and your own preferences all play a part. Sometimes, a subwoofer just has to go where it will fit. KEF understands this, and has included a number of features to help really dial in your subwoofer, no matter where it is placed.
For example, "EQ" mode in KC92, KC62 and the Kube MIE range was developed to help ensure excellent performance no matter where in the room the subwoofer is placed. Choose one of five possible room placements and let the system adjust the settings automatically to give you the best sound possible.
See our guide to getting the most out of your subwoofer for further placement tips.

How many subwoofers do I need?
A single subwoofer revolutionises your listening and can be a great addition to your setup. As your system grows over time, adding more subwoofers can help reduce negative effects of standing waves. Standing waves produce dips and peaks at certain frequencies throughout the room – the use of multiple subwoofer positions can smooth out the bass performance throughout the room, creating a more consistent sound experience.
Subwoofers placed very close together playing the same audio will acoustically couple – essentially acting like one larger subwoofer. Whilst this has the effect of creating more output (up to an additional 6dB), the biggest benefit is that each subwoofer can be played at a lower volume than a single one for a given output level. This enables the subwoofers to increase headroom for a more dynamic performance. For this reason we designed the KSK92 Stacking Kit, which allows for the KC92 subwoofer to be stacked vertically.
See our guide to decide if multiple subwoofers could be the audio option for you.

Which subwoofer should I choose?
We offer a wide range of subwoofers to bring exquisite bass to listeners of all kinds. From the excellent value of the Kube MIE range to the exceptional Reference 8b that blasts bass through your space for phenomenal parties and immersive movie nights, KEF will surely have the right active subwoofer for your home.
Whilst it may be tempting to opt for the largest subwoofer you can fit into your room, bigger is not always better. We recommend you choose a subwoofer that appropriately matches the size of your space and your other speakers.
