Summary

Welcome to a world of High-Fidelity sound that is true enough to touch. This all-in-one speaker system in its second generation: upgraded to deliver a more balanced sound in higher resolution with all-inclusive connectivity. Simply stream anything including AirPlay 2, Chromecast, Spotify and Tidal, or seamlessly connect the LSX II to your laptop, TV and many other devices.

Key Features:

  • High-Fidelity sound: LSX II offers the highest quality sound in its size with streaming up to 24bit/384kHz, making high-fidelity sound accessible to more listeners.
  • All the music: Listen to music the way you like with the minimum of fuss and in pristine sound quality.
  • Plug and Play: LSX II supports HDMI ARC and USB-C inputs, making it the perfect companion for TV, laptop and more.

The SPU Synergy GM modernises the classic SPU design with a number of optimisations designed for optimum compatibility and sonic purity.

The Cadenza Black has been optimized for an amazing tonal neutrality, dynamics and purity of sound. It performs better than any other cartridge at this level in detail, consistency and sound staging.

The Cadenza Series of high-end Moving Coil (MC) cartridges was born out of the success of Ortofon's Kontrapunkt and MC Jubilee models. Though these models are amongst the most popular Ortofon has ever produced, the Danish cartridge masters still decided to develop a new range that was even more ambitious.
