Mitchell HillHOST
It's the server.
Mitchell HillHOST
I like that sound, but when I run it through my giant Denon Pioneer black receiver that cost $4,000 and through the KEF speakers, all great speakers and amplifiers, it just doesn't sound the same.
Mitchell HillHOST
Yeah, there's the old, they look like cornrows.
Mitchell HillHOST
So
StephenHOST
Alex is a bit of a fan of a good set of speakers.
StephenHOST
In fact, he can, yeah, right there, and for everyone that is watching the video, he's got a set of KEF LS50, but not
AlexHOST
the meta version.
AlexHOST
No, these are the actual original LS50s from 2015, and I felt zero desire to upgrade them in that whole time because they're just so good.
10 MINS LATER
StephenHOST
But I will say that your wireless thing can be very helpful.
StephenHOST
And even in the high-end audio, that world has really opened up to the idea of less cables.
StephenHOST
And so, for example, the KEF speakers that Alex has there, there is a LS50 wireless.
StephenHOST
And I think they have a couple iterations now.
Phil HintonHOST
Now, those speakers there, the one thing behind them is they were designed by a designer.
Phil HintonHOST
KEF were very, very deliberate about this.
Phil HintonHOST
And it's not just KEF that are doing this either in markets.
Phil HintonHOST
Brands are now realizing that lifestyle products, good design, good functionality, good UI is more of a sales tactic these days than sound quality.
Phil HintonHOST
You're guaranteed that you're going to get a decent level of sound quality these days.
Mark EllisGUEST
And to get those people doing stuff for you, you need to have pretty...
Mark EllisGUEST
Yeah, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, obviously.
Mark EllisGUEST
But I've had quite a few people say that the KEF looks like my head, which is interesting.

Each combines a Uni-Q driver for high and mid-range frequencies with a dedicated bass driver.
Amy ArthurNARRATOR
We're ensconced in Goldsmith's weathered RV, parked in Reno a few weeks before Burning Man, where he will help run the festival's radio station.
Amy ArthurNARRATOR
A day-glow tapestry screens off the cab, shades are drawn, a thicket of electronics crowds the narrow space, a Mac workstation, two squat servers, a boom-mounted microphone, KEF loudspeakers, and a basket of headphones.
Amy ArthurNARRATOR
The air conditioner drones against the desert heat.
Amy ArthurNARRATOR
Goldsmith, long white hair falling to his shoulders, leans toward the screen.
Alan ShawGUEST
Yes.
Alan ShawGUEST
which, of course, is 35 years ago, when we were still making the LS35A, because it seemed obvious to me that sooner or later, A, KEF was going to cease manufacturing of the drive units, which they did.
Alan ShawGUEST
B, the price of the drive units was going to skyrocket, which it did, and that we needed to protect ourselves by distancing ourselves from the BBC... not legacy, but the BBC handcuffs, I suppose is the word.
Alan ShawGUEST
Yes, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Stuart BurgessHOST
Um, Arma Home are making moves in the market.
Stuart BurgessHOST
They've just employed a, a new brand marketing manager, and KEF debuts the high-performance, really sexy LS Lux wireless speaker.
Stuart BurgessHOST
There's so much news out at the moment, it's ridiculous.
Stuart BurgessHOST
It keeps me busy every bloody day.
Mark AyresGUEST
But he brought people in who would go above and beyond to make it work.
Mark AyresGUEST
And then he did the same with, you know, Kef and Dom and me.
Mark AyresGUEST
You know, we were young people, very, very keen to make a mark in the industry.
Mark AyresGUEST
And, you know, he took advantage of that.
George HowardHOST
Why did it take 6,000 years, roughly, after the catastrophe to really get going, other than Gobekli Tepe?
Matthew LacroixGUEST
Well, it's something I work with in, with r- Dr. Robert Schoch, is that we see evidence, especially at Kef, of massive vitrification and extreme damage on a lot of these stones.
George HowardHOST
Yeah.
Matthew LacroixGUEST
You see that as well as in Tanis and other parts of Egypt, I think even in Peru.
