YU Passive 4"

Our take

"We like the studio monitor look of the YU Passives. With an integrated amp, a turntable and even a TV positioned between a pair of YU Passive speakers, you will have a professional-looking studio monitor setup that will blend in well to complement any room’s aesthetic. The YU Passive 4” works really well on a tabletop with a DAC/amp combo, and in a dedicated two-channel listening station where space is limited."

"For audio enthusiasts who love finding the best bang-for-their-buck equipment or even seasoned music lovers with existing HiFi systems, we think YU Passives are a steal at these price points. When YU Passives are paired with a good integrated amp or a streaming station, they do a great job presenting good sound on a tabletop with a dedicated vinyl setup in smaller to medium-sized rooms. As long as you have a receiver that has optical or ARC connections, you could even add YU Passive 4" as stereo left and right channels to enhance the sound of movies." - Audio Advice

Pair Kanto YU Passive 4” bookshelf speakers with an amplifier of your choice and enjoy your favorite tunes the way the artist intended. Featuring 4-inch Kevlar® woofers and 1-inch silk dome tweeters, these speakers produce a neutral, balanced tone. A bottom-mounted 1/4”-20 threaded hole attaches to compatible Kanto speaker stands for confidence-inspiring security and audio coupling. YU Passive works great on a desktop with a DAC/amp combo, or in a dedicated two-channel listening station. Enhance your TV’s sound by connecting YU Passive to an integrated amp or add them into a home theatre system as rear, side, or height channels.
