In my opinion ZF has the most informative and best reviews, period.

Sean, absolutely love your vids. The format is great, you're well spoken, easy to listen and follow and you have the perfect combination of subjectivity und objectivity. You're saying the pros and cons and who this is for and for whom it's not.
Keep doing these great vids. Your time and effort is much appreciated.

Best regards from Germany,
Ben

Thanks for the review Sean! I’ve been loving my Apogee Stages for 28 years convinced that no sub could integrate seamlessly with the panels...I finally grew a pair and picked up the kc62 and wow! Yes perfect integration with no noticeable x-over anomalies. I run the sub at pretty low volume but the foundation and musicality are there. I listen to rock, punk, classical, and jazz and this thing shines on all of them. Really happy with purchase and I agree with all your observations in the review. Great job

[themastroiannis]

thanks Sean! made my day!! and seeing that classic Getz/Joao Gilberto timeless album by the KEF....ahhhh!!! what a beauty!!!! the delights of uncompressed music...long time ago, when you could even hear the studio, the ambience, the space where great music was created...

[jimbrunsman]

Another helpful review with a good explanation of the sub's limits. I bet a couple of KC62s in a small room with almost any decent speakers would sound really good...

[mikhailyadav]

Any visitors to my home always exclaim how fantastic My LS50 and KC62 look.

These look great and sound astoundingly good for their size. Some might find them too bright for their liking, but the app allows you to reduce the treble which solves that.
Transparency, depth, sound stage, heft.. Well done kef.

I have two with the LS50w2s and it is quite a sound. Full range, for sure.

[Godzilla-hhip]

You are so easy to listen to. One of the best in the YouTube I would say.

[Eneterriaga]

I ve already ordered a second unit. Amazing sound but the best point is that you can hide it very easily. I integrated with minidsp shd. Very very happy with the purchase

[buffalbilious]

It also seems sort of like it was designed specifically to pair well with the LS50 Wireless II to make for a super compact, wireless, sleek looking, full-range system. If I was putting together a system in a small living space and my budget was $4K, that combo's something I'd take a hard look at for sure.

Sean your back on your A-game. Glad to see you excited about reviewing again.

[Mike_inspector]

Great review, thanks for helping me decide that this IS the right sub for me and my space - Moderate listening volume, tight space, and 1% of listening is movies/games! My KC62 is arriving today, pairing up with a pair of KEF Q950s! 🤞

[LoveGun]

I can’t believe you pretty much did that in one take. Amazing.

[jimgardner]

Finally. An incredibly useful review of this beautiful sub. Thank you. 5 stars.

[nonametofame]

Thanks for putting out this definitive, mic drop level review. I've had it for weeks now and it essentially replaced 2 T5is, and 2 SB1000s. You nailed it. The RELs had seamless integration but lacked that slam. SVS had output but lacked tonality and texture. KC62 solves my dilemma. I'm using a pair now and it's overkill in my space so I'm going back to a single.

Just that you know, this is the first review of this subwoofer I have watched.

[tee-jaythestereo-bargainph]

Thanks Sean ! Appricate your HardWork! I could easily see myself rocking these out !

[pmizz]

I’ve been looking forward to your take on this guy for awhile. Really enjoyed it. It is back on my radar in a big way.

[Jeton]

this is a very sober and honest review, glad you finally released it. this sub is very exciting and appealing but it has its limits, they're not relevant for all potential customers but are worth knowing... especially for the price.

[subsonicbass]

This would be insane in my space, need to keep it small and never have the chance to listen super loud but still want the clarity and depth!
