KEF LSX II as Computer Speakers

[whiskymusic]

How are KEF LSX II for near field listening?

Looking to hook them to my desktop. Primarily usage would be YouTube, music & occasional gaming.

Are there better options in 1L segment?

Looking for powered speakers only, no space for DAC/AMP stack on desk.

These are excellent speakers, underrated to be honest.

I have lived with these for quite a bit, they are detailed and resolving yet offer a nice punch. They are small and fit perfectly on a desk or a cabinet.

If possible check with profx for home demo to audition it in your space.

Do you think adding a sub would be quite unnecessary for them?

Yes, don't add a sub before listening to them.
My brother who got these also felt the bass would be very low looking at the size and the reviews on this, but we were surprised how good these handle the bass duties, no longer think needs a subwoofer.

You can always add a sub later down the line if needed.

Glad I could have opinion of someone who used them. Thank you!
