With wireless support up to 24-bit/96 kHz audio (and network file support up to 24-bit/384 kHz), the LS50 Wireless II bookshelf/stand speakers give you access to unadulterated audio, regardless of your service or format(s) of choice. In each speaker (available in multiple color options), custom amplifiers deliver 280 watts of power to each woofer and 100 watts to each tweeter, for big, clear, distortion-free sound at any volume. The LS50 Wireless II’s striking, copper-colored Uni-Q driver orients a 1-inch vented aluminum dome tweeter at the acoustic center of a 5¼-inch magnesium-aluminum alloy woofer cone to create a wide listening position that’s detailed and dynamic.
