Kanto YU4G2VMN Yu4 (2nd Gen) Powered Bookshelf Speakers in Green (Pair)
The Kanto YU4G2VMN Yu4 (2nd Gen) powered bookshelf speaker pair in Green combines 110 W RMS Class-D amplification with DSP, USB-C audio, Bluetooth 5.3 and a built-in phono preamp. This two-channel system includes an active speaker and a passive companion, with no separate amplifier required. USB-C and optical inputs accept 24 bit/96 kHz audio, while selectable RCA phono and 3.5 mm AUX connections accommodate analog sources. Move from computer listening to phone playlists or vinyl playback, then add a subwoofer through the dedicated output when you want to expand your setup.
Key Features
Silk Dome Tweeters and Abaca Paper Woofers
Smooth highs, articulate mids and warm, natural bass give everyday music listening its detail and character. Each speaker pairs a 1 in silk dome tweeter with a 4 in abaca-reinforced paper cone woofer, bringing together the two driver materials behind that sound. The system's frequency response is 60 Hz-22 kHz.
110 W RMS Amplification, Built In
The built-in Class-D amplifier and DSP provide musical headroom and presence without adding a separate amplifier to your system. The active speaker powers its passive companion through the included 15 ft (5 m) speaker wire, while the supplied power cord connects the active speaker to power. Bluetooth is a source connection, not a replacement for the wire between the speakers.
Selectable Phono Preamp for Vinyl
Select the RCA input's phono setting for direct turntable playback through the integrated preamplifier. The selectable connection also accommodates an appropriate analog source rather than limiting RCA use to vinyl alone. Your records can share the same powered speaker system as your digital music sources.
USB-C, Optical and Bluetooth 5.3
USB-C audio gives a laptop a direct digital connection, while optical supports a compatible TV or other optical source. Bluetooth playback from a phone uses SBC or AAC codecs. A 3.5 mm AUX input is also available when you prefer a wired analog connection, giving you a choice of connection paths for everyday listening.
Automatic 80 Hz Subwoofer Crossover
Connect a subwoofer to engage the automatic 80 Hz high/low-pass filter. Redirecting low-frequency content to the subwoofer allows the main speakers to play more cleanly, so expansion also changes how the system handles bass. A subwoofer is not included.
Green Laminate Finish and Flexible Placement
A durable laminate finish gives the cabinets their Green exterior. Swappable left/right channel assignment lets you position the active speaker on the side that works for your setup, while the 1/4 in-20 threaded bottom mounting hole provides a secure attachment point for compatible mounting hardware.
Remote Operation and Dedicated USB-C Charging
Use the included infrared remote to operate the speakers from your listening position. For device power, a dedicated USB-C charging output supplies 5 V, 1.5 A. That output is separate from the USB-C audio input, keeping the charging connection distinct from the port used for computer audio.
