the sound gets better and better
Wonderful sound

Range is also admirable
response range is also good for the kind and size of drivers
All essential connection cables come included which is nice
Crystal-clear

perfectly smooth edges and high-quality connections
the automatic standby and power-up modes
deep bass and warm sound that was easy and fun to listen
speakers are incredibly versatile
The wooden cabinets look great and they are a dream to set up and use
matte black looks nice nonetheless
great audio
a dedicated music streamer is essential
It is built quite well and feels solid in the hand
The range on the wireless operation is actually quite good
the design of the speakers overall is solid
the build is excellent
with solid construction
punchy
energetic
accomplished
the detail
and the realism
sound is very good
solid sound quality and a great experience
it worked well
The mids are crystal clear with amazing separation

It may not display this or other websites correctly
absence of a subwoofer output
lacking response is intentional
and they sound like the mid range is sucks out
lack a USB DAC input
remote control design could do with an upgrade
can't use it as a USB input to play music
Kanto Yu6 Powered Bookshelf Speakers - Matte Black - Mint
the input buttons are ungodly small and not easy to read in anything
many speakers in this category are utter crap
the two speakers are not visually identical
lacks any sort of Google Home/Assistant or Alexa functionality built-in
have the small LED input window or the manual volume knob
are reset buttons so you can revert to the default settings
is also a lack of shimmer and hyped peaks
with no rubber feet or pads to dampen it
no awkward brick in the power cable)
audio rack with a tangle of cables
There is no grille to protect the tweeter-
Rubber feet are supplied but not attached
subwoofer output go unused
occasionally side facing controls are hard to access
no optical cable or RCA cables are provided
The speakers have no protective grills leaving the drivers exposed
The naming is a little bit confusing here
Basically inadequate bass and mid range
the YU is limited to black
compact pre-amplifier isn t expensive
YUs lack a built-in PHONO amplifier
missing her vocal strength through the lower registers
the bass clout is lacking
pretty low-end bass and could cause some feedback
low end really shined with each hit of the bass being felt in my chest
has poor quality control and terrible costumer service
slightly deeper male vocals had a little bit more energy than higher female ones
it s still a little disappointing
the TUK come down on the heavy side
-awful noise they make only on a very small scale
there s nothing too special in the accessories or packaging

Review: Kanto YU Powered Bookshelf Speakers

Kanto Audio’s YU powered bookshelf speakers lose the extra features to deliver a solid, true-stereo listening experience (with Bluetooth and RCA inputs) at a price that’s competitive with a decent portable Bluetooth speaker.
