The LX CONNECT offers wireless connectivity via an advanced wireless hub that hosts all of the connectivity options for your listening pleasure. The LX CONNECT HUB intelligently transmits left and right audio signals to the appropriate speaker via uncompressed 5.8 GHz wireless audio signal transmission. There is no trailing cable between speakers or hub with no need for the speakers to be connected together via a cable, for "true wireless" audio.

The speaker system is based on the Mission LX-2 MKII speakers, with specially engineered, high-power digital amplification modules offering 50W from each cabinet (100W per system). Following the LX MKII series design and performance, the LX CONNECT speakers maintain the Mission "Inverted Driver Geometry" design and precision-tuned crossover to yield improved transient attack and astonishing detail. Mission DiaDrive bass units offer superior control of the low-frequency diaphragm while a refined high-frequency performance and a re-engineered cabinet bracing system further help create a high-performing loudspeaker system.

The LX CONNECT HUB acts as the central console for all of your music sources, including analog, optical, and digital coaxial inputs. The LX CONNECT HUB is a high-specification, standalone audio hub in its own right. There is a dedicated HDMI ARC connection to bring high fidelity, true wireless performance for TV, movies, and games, and Bluetooth aptX connections for wireless streaming of hi-resolution audio from tablets and smartphones.

The LX CONNECT HUB also doubles as a high-performance USB DAC, equipped with the ESS SABRE32 ES9018K2M Reference DAC, and hi-fi-grade headphone amplifier that will outperform many dedicated headphone amp / DAC combinations. Unlike other wireless and active speakers where controls and inputs are often placed awkwardly on the back panel, the LX CONNECT HUB is easily controlled via the tactile interface and OLED display or, for even more convenience, you can use the included remote.
