KEF customer supprt is second to none. (well, maybe equal to Quad's 😉) In particular, Andy from customer support went the extra mile in repairing one of my 30 year old Reference Model 1.2 loudspea... See more

The best customer service ever
The best customer service I've ever encountered. I've had my KEF Mu7 for 4 years and I've had problems with the connecting part twice but they were all handled perfectly. The customer support team are really friendly and helpful, offered me a replacement free of charge and managed to deliver it to me before my holiday so I could travel with my headphones. I couldn't ask for a better experience and I will be a lifetime supporter of KEF products.
My experience with kef is very…
My experience with kef is very good,they respond fast,and makes great followup.
Order 301778676 never arrived, refund ignored despite official confirmation
I placed an order on August 8th, but the shipping failed completely. On August 29th, Sophia Beltran from KEF Customer Service officially confirmed via email that the courier (TNT, tracking 301778676) failed the delivery and the parcel never reached me. She promised an escalated, priority refund. However, since then, the company has gone completely silent and keeps ignoring me. They formally acknowledged it was a logistics fault, yet they are still holding my money. Unacceptable customer service and zero follow-through.
LSX II - Little monsters!
Recently bought the LSX II and I can only praise them. Soundstage and imaging are both fantastic for speakers of this size. App is very functional and intuitive. Connectivity is super. They also look really cool. I can't wait receiving the Kube subwoofer to couple with them.
Very happy with the purchase
Very happy with the purchase, Kef LS50W.
Great product, design and sound.
Support team was very helpful and answered on short notice, even in August.
Spare parts of KEF ? Big surprise...
Asking for spare parts for the speaker Q900, I was asked by the KEF subsidiary in Germany to adress to KEF of the Netherlands. 1st class service ? NO.
Adressing the to the KEF CENTER in UK, I got a polite answer, but the same:
adress to the Netherlands
1st class service of the MERCEDES between the speaker manufacturers in Europe ? Not at all, not even 3rd class.
customer service poor
purchased a pair of KEF LSX II speakers, but unfortunately, they arrived with a connection issue. Dealing with KEF’s customer service to get this resolved was an absolute nightmare.
Initial Denial: It took them two days just to respond to my initial fault report, only for them to immediately blame my home Wi-Fi rather than look into the hardware.
Endless Radio Silence: When I requested to return the speakers, the communication slowed down even further. I completed their official return form and received absolutely no response.
Conflicting Advice: I called them directly to get answers, but the agents gave me completely conflicting advice. They then asked me to fill out the return form another two times. I did, and yet again, I was met with total silence.
The return process dragged on for ages. KEF only took my situation seriously after I finally raised a formal complaint. Only then did someone actually pick up the phone and ring me and Claire did everything she said to get it resolved
The speakers might have a premium reputation, but the customer support is anything but premium. If you experience a fault, expect a long, frustrating battle just to get a basic return sorted.
Very poor customer service
They don't connect to WiFi anymore and are unable to be used. I've been trying to send them back for more than 2 weeks and it's impossible to get them to send a proper delivery person. It's ridiculous.
I strongly advise NOT to buy this brand which has a premium look but actually a very poor customer service even if the person looking after me is very nice.
I'm stuck with 2000 euros speakers which don't work after 2 years and it's not possible to get them fixed
Fantastic support
Fantastic support! Fast replies, friendly staff, and my problem was fixed in no time. Couldn’t ask for better service.
Excellent customer service
I had some broken plinth parts on my Q750’s so I got in contact with Kef customer support asking if I could purchase the parts. Not only did they come back to me the same day by email but the parts were sent free of charge! I could not ask for better customer service. A big thank you to Kef uk , a very helpful and professional service. When I finally ( one day, I can dream! ) get my reference 1’s I know I’ll be in good hands should ( doubtfully ) something go wrong.
KEF xio surprisingly musical
During a trip to London to celebrate my wife’s birthday, I decided to visit the flagship KEF sound gallery store as I was interested in hearing their zio soundbar.
I was treated to a fantastic demonstration and I was genuinely shocked at how great it sounded with music so I made the purchase and have not regretted it . The zio has changed my life as it has reintroduced me back to hi fi. Now I subscribe to a streaming service and I spend a couple of hours a night listening to music that sounds just wonderful on the, xio.
I would never have believed a sound bar could create such a wide stereo soundstage! I urge anyone who loves music as much as movies to audition the KEF xio, you won’t believe what it sounds like, I would also recommend a visit to.the KEF sound gallery store, I’m going back to hopefully add the rear speakers when there released . Xio has taken me back to my love of music that I drifted away from tweny years ago. Highly recommended.
Superb customer service
After a recent firmware update there was a hiccup with the built in web server in my LS60s. Probably not many people even know there is a built in web server but it's very handy for setting up the speakers if the app isn't working for any reason.
I popped off an email to support and, very quickly, Claire in customer support called me to apologise. They weren't aware of the issue but Claire assured me they'd get on it asap and sure enough, it was fixed with another update in a matter of days. I don't think I've ever had such sterling service. It's quite unsettling though this really is how it should be with such expensive speakers. Top marks to Claire and Kef.
Outstanding customer support from KEF
I recently purchased a KEF KC62 to integrate with my KEF R5 speakers. During the setup I contacted KEF support with several technical questions regarding integration, REW measurements, crossover settings and standby behaviour.
Gabriel provided outstanding technical support throughout the entire process. He answered every question with clear and detailed explanations, reviewed my setup and helped me achieve excellent integration between my KEF R5 speakers and the KC62.
Thanks to his guidance, the final result exceeded my expectations. The bass is now seamless, natural and perfectly integrated with the main speakers.
It is refreshing to see a manufacturer that genuinely supports customers who take the time to optimise their systems using measurement tools such as REW.
Thank you to Gabriel and the KEF support team for the excellent service.
Claire
Claire, is a customer service champ went that extra mile and beyond, so big thanks keep up the good work
Quite simply do not buy this product
Quite simply do not buy this product. I have a pair of premium LS50s retail about £2.7k. Trying to connect is a random and rare event. Then try and get support. You will waste your time on the app as you fill out the form but cannot submit. So go to the web, and the support page will ask you how the might help, but gives no options. You finally work out to press an automated service, which obviously is of no help, which puts you through to a supposed real person who never answers. Premier prices for a gutter product and service. I have both a medical degree and a PhD. So competent. Unlike this product and company.
Great Customer Service
Had a great Demo at the KEF London showroom and very happy to purchase the speakers. The showroom were in constant contact updating delivery times.
The speakers arrived quickly but there were issues with the delivery company who damaged one of the speakers.
One call to KEF and I was assigned a great customer service rep. The situation was resolved to everyones satisfaction by the following day.
Superb products and exceptional customer service
I had a small issue with my speakers after performing a firmware update, but Claire at KEF got back to me really quickly with a solution which worked. So I can go back to enjoying my speakers, which are the best I’ve ever owned. They still constantly impress me with the quality of the sound.
In the Netherlands
In the Netherlands, don't expect any support when you have a technical issue. The KEF LSX series is very sensitive to network conditions. On many occasions, the connection is lost. I shared a detailed decryption of the issue. support.nl at kef.com did not make any effort to help me out and told me I should contact an external company that will do repairs. The pricing is high-end… the quality and service are not.
KEF LS50W II Moss Green
KEF LS50W II Moss Green
Warning! I may be spoilt being used to top notch hifi (I recommend Dali Catch or anything by B&W), but this is really sub standard when it comes to user friendliness. Heavy marketing, but fails in software and user friendliness. 2026 we expect much softer intreaction. You can get better experience for a fraction of the price.
