Kanto Yu4 (2nd Gen) Powered Bookshelf Speakers in Walnut (Pair) - YU4G2WMW

Kanto YU4G2WMW Yu4 (2nd Gen) Powered Bookshelf Speakers in Walnut (Pair)

The Kanto YU4G2WMW Yu4 (2nd Gen) powered bookshelf speakers combine 110 W total RMS amplification, Bluetooth 5.3, USB-C audio and a built-in phono preamp in a Walnut-finish stereo pair. Silk-dome tweeters and abaca-paper woofers bring smooth treble, clear midrange and warm bass to records and digital listening, while the subwoofer output adds automatic 80 Hz high/low-pass filtering for future bass expansion. One active speaker powers the included passive speaker, so no external amplifier is needed; optical and 3.5 mm AUX inputs round out the wired connections.

Key Features

Natural Detail

Each cabinet combines a 1 in silk-dome tweeter with a 4 in abaca-paper cone woofer, with a published frequency response of 60 Hz-22 kHz. Revised drivers and DSP tuning are designed to improve tonal balance and stereo imaging. The updated cabinet geometry and acoustic design also support stable imaging away from the central listening position, giving you more flexibility in where you listen.

More Power: 110 W Total RMS

Class-D amplification delivers 110 W RMS across the system, with 160 W peak output and additional listening headroom. The amplifier lives inside the active cabinet rather than in a separate component you need to match. Connect that cabinet to power with the supplied cord, then link its passive partner using the included 15 ft speaker wire.

From Vinyl to Digital

For record listening, select the phono setting on the RCA input to use the onboard preamp and connect a turntable directly. USB-C and optical TOSLINK inputs each accept 24-bit/96 kHz audio, providing digital paths for compatible computers and televisions, while 3.5 mm AUX accommodates another analog source. For wireless music from a compatible phone, Bluetooth 5.3 supports SBC and AAC audio codecs.

Smarter Bass With an Automatic 80 Hz Crossover

Add a separately purchased subwoofer when you want more low-end reach. Connecting it automatically divides playback at 80 Hz: low-pass filtering directs bass to the subwoofer, while high-pass filtering keeps those low frequencies out of the bookshelf speakers. The crossover engages with the connection rather than requiring a separate crossover component.

Flexible Placement in a Walnut Finish

Swappable left/right channel assignment lets the active speaker sit on the side that best accommodates your source and power connections. Bottom mounting holes use 1/4 in-20 threads for compatible mounting hardware, giving you another placement option beyond resting the cabinets on furniture. A durable laminate exterior completes the Walnut finish.

Everyday Control and Included Accessories

Use the included infrared remote for everyday operation, and charge a compatible device from the dedicated USB-C output rated at 5 V, 1.5 A. Along with the power cord and speaker wire, the pair includes a 6 ft RCA-to-3.5 mm cable, eight silicone rubber feet, a user manual and a quick start guide.
