    KEF LS50 Wireless II - Without Wifi / Only Cable?

    Well I haven't really heard much else in this price category, so I don't have anything to compare to. I bought the original LS50w based solely on online reviews. So lets say a combo of a Cambridge Audio CXA61 (amp) + Klipsch RP-8000F (speakers), would the KEF still produce a better sound? The...

    KEF LS50 Wireless II - Without Wifi / Only Cable?

    I see. This is good to know. Thank you. So do you think the KEF would still be a good choice for me, even though I won't really take advantage of all its technology? Or should I look for some floorstanding speakers and pair them with a separate amplifier?

Maybe I will use bluetooth every once in a while (when I have guests) but I don't want the speakers to be connected to Wifi. I don't even have a Wifi...

    KEF LS50 Wireless II - Without Wifi / Only Cable?

    I owned the original Kef LS50W and enjoyed them a lot. Now I need a new pair of speakers and saw the Wireless II. I am interested in buying them but from looking at the manual, it seems that the speakers must be connected to the Wifi router? Is there no ethernet port so you can connect them via...
