## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is the subwoofer output at fixed level or as you change the speakers volume also the sub's gets changed ?**
A: The sub output increases in volume with the speakers. Feel free to contact us directly using the support button on our website if you have any additonal questions, thanks.

**Q: can kanto yu4 speakers be hooked up to a cd /dvd player?  thanks**
A: Yes.  They have inputs for most audio items such as a CD player.  They also have a digital input which is the best option if your player has a digital out, but they also have RCA inputs as well.

**Q: Are you able to play sound from two different inputs at the same time?**
A: Yu4's will only play sound from one input at a time.  Please email us directly if you have any other questions and we'll be happy to help.

**Q: I plugged this directly into a turntable with a pre amp. Turned preamp to line on turntable and phone on kanto speaker but only get static from speak?**
A: You will need to have them both either set to line to use the turntable pre-amp, or both set to photo to use the speakers pre-amp.  Please email Kanto living customer support directly if you have any other questions.

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for my record player / turntable! Built in preamp and amp saves $$$ and clutter.
*by J***T on April 4, 2024*

I just got them after LOTS of research for my set up and I am very happy with them! Personally, I found that reddit reviews keep pointing towards more complex budget set ups for people to start out with separate parts to upgrade later, which is totally fine but takes up space and was frankly overkill for the average listener / beginner high fidelity speaker set up.I started with the Audioengine A2s because of all of the positive reviews, but after listening for 2 weeks, it was just totally lacking any mid/low end parts of my records and that was a huge adjustment. I knew people suggested buying a sub but dropping another $200-300 felt silly and added clutter to the space in my little apartment, I also didn't want to bug my neighbors with unnecessary bass.I went on the search again and decided to try the YU4s for the slightly larger size that would also give me better mid/lows out of the box.And it was the best choice! Kanto YU4s are a perfectly good set up for me (and maybe others not trying to get too intense and in the weeds on specs) for the following reasons:I needed high quality/durable (not going to upgrade in the next couple of years), aesthetically pleasing, small/medium sized table top speakers for my Fluance RT82 turntable:Pros:Built in phono pre amp and amp - I didn't have to buy either of these separate devices or cables and fit them all on the same space, this is a huge plus. They might not be the best audiophile options to give you incremental listening benefits, but the convenience and looks were important to me in my small dining room.Remote - you can adjust bass, treble, balance, volume and input all on one remote. No need for an app, or standing up to go over and adjust things. This was a big advantage over the A2s that you can't adjust anything on.Mid / lows for the size are impressive! I really don't see a need for a subwoofer as I'm just listening to records in a room that is about 15 x 15 feetPrice - without having the buy an amp or preamp, it was a good all-in-one.Cons: really haven't noticed anything yet for my space.I'm excited to have more people over to just enjoy my entertaining space which is now a little listening room and dining room in one!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Just buy them, thank me later.
*by N***A on May 22, 2025*

They are physically small, but they produce big sound. They are great speakers with excellent quality sound, with a lot of connectors, Bluetooth works as a charm, connecting in a breeze, optic cable is working awesome, remote is also great. They are enough for up to a medium size room, and they work well with phone, ipod, laptop, Sony PlayStation or smart TV. They look way more expensive than you would expect and they are well made. Great for any room or office.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A very nice sounding set of speakers...
*by R***S on August 30, 2017*

I was looking for a pair of speakers to replace a set of computer speakers I've been using in our bedroom for many years. The existing 2.1 Altec Lansing speakers sounded pretty good, but there was no balance control, and the volume adjustment was on one of the speakers itself, so I had to keep the speaker within reach on the night stand which took a lot of real estate.So I was looking for a good sounding speaker system which was bluetooth and had a remote control.I was initially looking for a Bose solution since I have a few different Bose speakers and I think they sound really good, but sadly they don't seem to make a solution like this, and the bose store wanted to sell me two of their $400 360 degree speakers which I could play in stereo via a phone app, but not from a computer, so I wasn't into that solution.So, my initial reaction to these is that they sound very good. I won't say they are "Amazing", because my little Bose Soundlink mini is amazing because it sounds about as good as this, but it's a sixth of the size and runs on a battery. They have a lot of bass which is fully adjustable, and they sound very full and I'm very happy with how they sound. They can get pretty loud, even though that's not really what I got them for.So, bottom line, I would recommend these to anybody who was comfortable spending the money for them to get a speaker which is going to sound better than your typical low end speaker.I do have three cons about them however...The speakers have an Auto Power Down (APD) feature which you cannot disable which causes them to shutdown after 15 mins of no signal detected to save power. It also has an Auto Power Up (APU) feature which detects a signal and turns them back on. This would ordinarily be a great feature, but the APU doesn't work with bluetooth, so I am unable to use it like I did before where I just turn on my notebook and the music is on, I must hit the power button on the speakers. Not a big deal, but disappointing.The other issue is that the "main" speaker, much like lots of other bluetooth devices on the market, has a fairly bright blue light denoting an active bluetooth connection, as well as a not that dim bluish white light which denotes that it is on. This probably won't affect most people interested in these speakers, but if you want them for your bedroom like I do, they are bright enough to bother you when you're trying to sleep. Happily, I have faced this issue before and I covered it with window tint, which doesn't appear to affect the remote control function, so all is well in the world.There is no dust cover included (or available as far as I know). Some mention of this was made in other reviews and a lot of people replied saying how "cool" these speakers look and that a dust cover might interfere with their good looks, but quite frankly I assume that most people care more about what they sound like rather than what they look like, and I'm afraid that in a few months that there's going to be dust all over the speakers which is a bit of a shame. If you care more about what your speakers look like, you should probably just just buy something from Kmart...So I didn't remove any stars for any of these because it probably wouldn't affect most people, but I thought they were worth mentioning...So overall, a very nice set of speakers.
