Since I recently sold of my KEF LS50 Wireless speakers, I will no longer maintain this repository. I suggest that you check out aiokef which is a newer implementation which supports asyncio while also being more feature rich.
Supported devices:
- KEF LS50 Wireless (Requires firmware June 2018 or later)
- KEF LSX
- Get and set volume
- Mute and Unmute
- Get and set source input
- Get if the speakers are online
- Automatically connects and disconnects when speakers goes online/offline
- Turn off speaker
- Turn on (KEF LSX only)
- Turn on is impossible over tcp/ip (KEF LS50 Wireless) because the speaker turns off network interface when turned off. This is true for LS50 Wireless. LSX should be possible to turn on.
Note: One workaround to turning on is to use IR commands to turn on. I have included a lirc config with all the keys on the remote. Note that each command has to be sent twice to work (at least for me).
pip install pykefSetup:

speaker = KefSpeaker(host, port)
