I have a similar set up with Kef LS50 metas and the LC62. Depending on the music, the KC62 makes a huge difference or a subtle difference. . When placed and set up correctly, you can’t tell where it is. Overall I love the sound from the system now. That said, for the same $ you can get some good towers which may be a better solution for some people.

Thanks for the review! I have the same LS50 Metas as yours. Right now, I'm using an SVS SB-2000 sub with them. Everything sounds superb, but I definitely want to try the KC62. I'm on several notification lists. Just waiting for an email that says "come and buy me!"

Buy the Kef S2 stands fill them with sand and lead shots , add Accoustic Gaias to the spike feet, place the spkrs a foot or more from the wall. Place them at least 2M apart to get proper stereo imaging. Treat your room with diffusers , the echo is strong. Put a rug in front of the listening position. I have the metas with a Klipschsub , they shud sound much better.

Agreed. The manual on the LS 50 2 show images of a future release on the app that will have EQ settings for “lively rooms”. But it hasn’t been released yet. Been 2 months and no new updates on the app. I wish Kef would release some updates with settings for this and the new Sub.

Nice little video... but there’s more to bass than adding a sub. The room sounds a bit hollow, to many hard surfaces and not enough soft furnishings and you should get proper speaker stands and fill them. Also have you set up the KEF app regarding how close the speakers are to the wall?
@MountainMetal3 жыл бұрын
You'll never get good sound from such an acoustically bright room. You have to physically soften the echo of the room. No degree of electronics can compensate for that.

So you've had this a while now any feeback/thoughts on impressions during homne theater applications. I'm considering teh KC62 for both audi and theater applications. My biggest concern with the KC62 is SPL capbilities of this little beast at immersive theater levels. ...have zero concerns for audio only applications.

@@smithms Hi Matt. Thanks for sharing mate, how nice of you. Do you mind playing the following track: Hans Zimmer - Why So Serious? If you go to about 3:20 into the track. There is a crescendo in the violins and then wait a few seconds, you'll hear a passage of very low bass notes. I'd recommend keep the volume down at first because alot of subs struggle with this passage. Gradually turn it up as loud as you can comfortably go, can you hear any anomalies in the bass? And how is the balance between the bass and the loudspeakers as the passage continues? Can you let us know how that particular passage sounds please? Sorry .. detailed instructions I know lol! Thanks mate!

The real problem with the KC62 is that it turns off at low volumes. It's a very annoying problem. We don't always feel like listening at very high volumes and, on the other hand, in certain situations we can't. Many people complain about this problem, but KEF doesn't seem to be able to solve this serious problem. I have already sent the KC62 self to my seller, who has already contacted KEF, but so far, after more than 2 months nothing. I connected KC62 with my LS50W II, in manual or LFE mode, but the problem persists, What should be a good set is compromised by the KC62 problem. Unacceptable!
