Want to start listening without reaching for another cable? Bluetooth 5.3 with SBC and AAC support lets you wirelessly stream from compatible devices. You can quickly move between wireless listening and your connected sources without building the entire system around one input.

The Kanto YU4 (2nd Gen) supports USB-C audio playback up to 24-bit/96 kHz, therefore providing a direct digital connection. Additionally, its USB-C charging output delivers 5V/1.5A for compatible accessories. As a result, USB-C adds convenient flexibility to your modern audio setup.

Your turntable doesn't need its own separate speaker system. The selectable RCA analog/phono input features an integrated phono preamp, making the Kanto YU4 (2nd Gen) easy to connect with compatible vintage or modern turntables. When you're finished with a record, you can simply switch over to another connected source.

YU4 gives you several ways to connect the devices you already use. Along with Bluetooth 5.3, USB-C, and the selectable RCA/phono input, you get a 3.5 mm auxiliary input and an optical input supporting audio up to 24-bit/96 kHz.

That flexibility makes it possible to connect sources such as a turntable, TV, computer, Wi-Fi transmitter, or other compatible audio accessories. Like a central hub for your everyday audio, the speakers let different sources share one compact system.

A dedicated subwoofer output gives you room to expand your system. When a subwoofer is connected, the Kanto YU4 (2nd Gen) automatically applies an 80 Hz high-pass filter. This reduces distortion and lets the speakers focus more closely on midrange and high-frequency detail for cleaner, more dynamic sound.

Rigid, rear-ported acoustic-grade MDF cabinets help minimize unwanted resonance while supporting the speaker's acoustic performance. Seamless silicone trim rings add a clean visual detail while helping reduce diffraction around the drivers.

Each speaker measures 5.5 inches wide, 8.1 inches deep, and 9.2 inches high. These compact dimensions make YU4 easy to work into a desk, shelf, speaker stand, or media console setup.

The Kanto YU4 (2nd Gen) includes a 1/4"-20 threaded hole on the bottom for mounting, giving you another option for positioning the speakers. Four-way knurled binding posts connect the speaker pair, while the included rubber feet provide a practical option for placement on suitable surfaces.

The included infrared remote keeps everyday controls within reach. Tactile silicone buttons let you manage volume, playback, input selection, bass, and treble. You can switch sources or fine-tune your sound without repeatedly reaching for the speakers.
