Customer Reviews
I just got them after LOTS of research for my set up and I am very happy with them! Personally, I found that reddit reviews keep pointing towards more complex budget set ups for people to start out with separate parts to upgrade later, which is totally fine but takes up space and was frankly overkill for the average listener / beginner high fidelity speaker set up.I started with the Audioengine A2s because of all of the positive reviews, but after listening for 2 weeks, it was just totally lacking any mid/low end parts of my records and that was a huge adjustment. I knew people suggested buying a sub but dropping another $200-300 felt silly and added clutter to the space in my little apartment, I also didn't want to bug my neighbors with unnecessary bass.I went on the search again and decided to try the YU4s for the slightly larger size that would also give me better mid/lows out of the box.And it was the best choice! Kanto YU4s are a perfectly good set up for me (and maybe others not trying to get too intense and in the weeds on specs) for the following reasons:I needed high quality/durable (not going to upgrade in the next couple of years), aesthetically pleasing, small/medium sized table top speakers for my Fluance RT82 turntable:Pros:Built in phono pre amp and amp - I didn't have to buy either of these separate devices or cables and fit them all on the same space, this is a huge plus. They might not be the best audiophile options to give you incremental listening benefits, but the convenience and looks were important to me in my small dining room.Remote - you can adjust bass, treble, balance, volume and input all on one remote. No need for an app, or standing up to go over and adjust things. This was a big advantage over the A2s that you can't adjust anything on.Mid / lows for the size are impressive! I really don't see a need for a subwoofer as I'm just listening to records in a room that is about 15 x 15 feetPrice - without having the buy an amp or preamp, it was a good all-in-one.Cons: really haven't noticed anything yet for my space.I'm excited to have more people over to just enjoy my entertaining space which is now a little listening room and dining room in one!
