    • Finally HAPPY.
Color: Matte White
I had the Bose Companion 5 speakers for like 12 years and finally decided to upgrade. And man.. there were SO MANY to choose from. I'm happy enough to not have a true budget so I wanted something with amazing sound. I purchased the KRK Rokit 5's and the Audio Engine A5+. Rokits 5 had amazing sound. Not bass heavy with these new models esp with the integrated EQ at the back. Had to get a focus rite DAC and a few XLR cables. Problem was that there was no BASS and they were really big on my desk. I wanted to get the KRK sub but it was always out of stock. I then tried Audio Engine A5+ and their DAC. I even got the SUB thinking that this was the AUTO winner. However, I had so many issues... Constant static... left speaker going out. It was such a hassle. I then did more research and landed on these bad boys. Comes with a remote to adjust Treble and bass. However straight off the bat, flat was amazing. I used an optical cable this time integrated into the PC. Comes with banana plugs to connect the speakers so much better quality than the A5's. Overall sound is amazing. Mid bass is good. Not much low bass which is expected but their sub is not that expensive compared to audio engine's! Looks amazing. No ground loop issues. SUPER HAPPY FINALLY ... show more

Setup is at the top of the stairs in a split-level on the sitting room (living room) side. I did opt for the Sub8 for the extra bass. Source is an Ocean Digital WR-50 (not a DAC or streamer but I didn't need those features). Using the optical connection between the source and the speakers. These things are awesome. Clean and loud! They will fill the entire house with sound loud. The sub does add a bunch to the setup with the crossover. I like my music bright with good mid-range and highs. Cranking the volume up results in almost no distortion. In some repect they can get too loud (which is unbelievable). My only peeve is the remote conrol because there is no easy way to see where the current settings stand to adjust them. You have to either pop all the way up or down and then adjust from there for the bass and treble. I only use the speakerswith one source so I have nothing to say about source switching. As can be seen in the picture my grills are not grey (which come with the White speakers). I contacted Kanto to get a set of Black grills so the TUKs would match the Sub8. Never be afraid to ask. It is a bit of an expensive setup but it is worth it. As for my source, it is not super hifi tech like you would get with an expensive DAC for high quality streaming content. I bring this up because I don't use this system often so I have no need to spend money on an expensive DAC or streaming services (monthly cost). I mosty use the FM Radio, Internet Radio and media files (ripped CDs) for music. For not so high quality sources, the TUKs are still killing it! If you are looking for something to front-end any powered speakers on the somewhat cheap (<$200) The Ocean Digital WR-50 is a great source. ... show more

    • Tested the TUK against klipsch 5's and Audio Engine HD6. One TUK to rule them all!
Color: Matte Black
Not a bluetooth speaker, not a hi-fi system but something in-between. I tested out the TUK vs the Klipsch 5's and the Audio Engine HD6 - and liked the TUK most of all. I tested them with a turntable, bluetooth, and USB connected to a laptop streaming high-res files from amazon music HD. Klipsch 5's -- Bass was loose and rambling and just way too loud. At low to moderate volumes, they sounded good. Attached to a Audio Technica LP60 turntable, the Klipsch 5's sounded better than the TUK when using the Klipsch's built in phono amp. Overall the Klipsch's did just OK on vocals and brass instruments. The fives look really good. After I returned them, it seemed like I maybe needed to update the firmware to allow for a different bass settings --- these things should have some tone control built in. TUK -- These really sounded pretty descent. Very clear, and the bass was far more musical than the Klipsch. The ribbon tweeters had a high-end quality to them. At high volumes, the TUK started to wear out. The phono amp was good, but maybe a small notch behind the Klipsch, as the klipsch had a nice "warmness" to them. I did NOT try to pair these with a Sub, but doing so would have made these an awesome little stereo. If you live in an apartment having these with a sub connected to a TV plus a turntable would make you very happy. My comments above don't quite tell the whole story, but the TUK's (in my opinion), are a real step up from the Klipsch's and the audio engine hd6. Audio Engine HD6. These also sounded good, but lack a phono amp. After many hours of listening, I decided that these are meant to a computer speaker that you don't crank up much. Sound quality was just below the TUK's from what I could judge. They lacked much of a soundstage. TUK's are great speakers enough to fill most living rooms. Just wish they looked a little cooler. BTW - I ended up spending $5K on a somewhat more proper hifi system. For simple set-ups, I would suggest either the TUK at 799 plus the sub for 289 for $1,100 spring 2021 or the KEF ls50 W for $2,500 and see if high-res streaming works for you on the KEF's. (I did not include the KEF's in my write up. since the above three are at a similar price point) ... show more

I researched for month on what speakers to buy for my new music room. My wife and I have a decent album collection and wanted to create room to listen to them. I settled on a Fluance turntable and loved the white color. I needed some white speakers that sounded great. I am not an expert audiophile, but every expert review I saw just loved these speakers. Our room is about 14 x 13 ft and the speakers juts sound great. No need to buy a subwoofer at this point as the base sounds great to me and has enough power and depth to fill the room. They are easy to set up but wish they had packed some longer grounding and speaker cords. As you can see in my photo, I have to keep the speakers close to the phonograph table but will but some longer cords to be able to have some flexibility in moving the speakers a little further out. For some good speaker cords, this will put me out another few hundred dollars. The Kanto speaker stands are top notch and highly recommend. These speakers easily connect to my iphone's Bluetooth, but the sound playing from Spotify doesn't compare to the sound quality when playing an album. The biggest issue I have is the remote or speaker not having dedicated buttons for the different input options. To change between turntable and Bluetooth, I have to toggle between the different options. Overall, it is the sound quality, color options, and flexibility that I was looking for. I am very happy with this purchase and do not think you can get anything comparable with this quality in this price range. ... show more

    • The Burning Question
Color: Matte White
TL;DR - Buy these speakers now. Pros: -Tone controls -Sleek modern design -Excellent sound quality (NOT fatiguing at all) -Has every input you need Cons: -The remote could be a tiny bit more intuitive. Instead of having dedicated input buttons, you have to cycle through each input and it takes a second for each one to register. Not a huge deal, but worth mentioning. Conclusion: Here's why my review is titled "The Burning Question." Many people have asked which is better, Kanto TUK or Klipsch The Fives? Well, I can tell you, after owning both pairs of speakers, I would absolutely recommend the TUK over The Fives hands down. Yes, The Fives have HDMI-ARC which can handle higher resolution, but that doesn't really matter when The Fives just don't sound that great in my opinion... AND they don't have dedicated tone controls! The TUK have incredibly detailed highs with more than enough bass to satisfy. The mid range frequency takes a slight back seat to the action which is perfect for me because I'm the type of listener who enjoys a U-shaped sound profile. In any case, you can tweak the sound to your liking should you choose to do so. Basically what you'll be getting with the TUK is an incredibly versatile pair of speakers that can connect to any source you want and will give you fantastic sound quality that absolutely does NOT require a subwoofer (although I will be getting one in order to further increase resolution) I hope this review helps anyone who's on the fence about these speakers. I'd say buy them. You will not regret it! ... show more

Full disclosure, I bought the speakers when it was discounted from 899 to 499. that price makes sense to me for home office desk speakers. I like to buy premium products for my home usage and not cheap out, but no doubt that $900 Price tag is a lot for home office usage. Luckily with The discounted price I managed to get them Eventually after keeping my eyes Open for a discount for five months.. And I’m very happy with the purchase, they match beautifully to my white desk set up. I started Using them out of the box with no stand usage as shown in the pictures. Then got metal angled stands. They had great quality and excellent with directing the sound towards the listener ears, but it didn’t leave any space on my table/: so I switched to New and higher 9 inch stands that gives me more room and space for other items on my table, plus I think it looks even more beautiful and gives it a a clean aesthetic. It comes with the remote and lots of ports and exits for you to utilize for your set up, and it just makes me relax when I’m future proofing the setup with electronic purchase that way. I’m very happy with all of the functionality except One thing that drives me crazy , the switching of the different audio Presets/output… which require numerous times of clicking and pressing. Even the new fancy remote make you switch between them one by one/: For example if you wanna switch through: Phono, RCA, OPT, USB, Bluetooth. It will require you to click on the same button for time just to get from Bluetooth mode to USB mode, if the speaker is in sleep mode than five times. You get my drift. at first I was looking at audio engine brand as well, or previous older models of Kanto speakers, but I decided I want the best of the best and after long few weeks of Research I chose Play is this tuk speakers on my list, and just wait several months for it to be discounted. which I highly recommend on doing. ... show more

    • bad customer service
Color: Matte White
I was excited to buy these speakers and find the audio quality to be solid. I was using the optical line for my TV and was happy with it. I plugged the optical line in maybe 4-5 times total. The 4th time I unplugged it to re-organize my TV / Audio cables, the optical input on the speaker broke. I have now been back and forth with TUK for over a month to resolve the issue. They take a week to respond and keep requesting different things. They have yet to inform me if the input can be repaired or inform me of anything really. I would expect much better customer service for speakers that cost right under $1,000. The popping issue with the speakers noted in other reviews must be related to bluetooth. I never noticed it until the optical line input broke and I switched to using bluetooth for my TV. I have since stopped using the speakers for watching movies b/c the sound quality directly out my TV is better quality. ... show more

Short answer, buy these speakers. I was searching for a pair of speaks that I could have on my desk in my office to listen to while I work, but could also fill the space when not at my desk. I wanted to maximize space so they had to be able to tuck into the corners. I also wanted to use them without a subwoofer. I went back and forth between powered & passive speakers. The Kanto Tuk proved to be the best blend of sound quality, size and enough bass. As far as sound I prefer speaks with a flat sound. I tried out several speaks (B&W 707 & 607, KEF LSX & LS50, Audio Engine A5+, Kanto YU4 & YU6). The B&W’s we’re powered by a Cambridge audio AXR100 receiver, and sounded great, but they took up slightly too much space on the desk top and in the cabinet with the receiver. The KEF LSX was my second choice with their compact size and amazing sound quality, the sound stage offered impeccable detail, but for general listening in the room, once you were off center you lost all the detail that made the Kef’s so special. The audio engines weren’t close interms of build quality. The grey plastic on the front made them look cheap, and even though the sound was fine, it lacked bass and it didn’t fit the look of the space. I liked the sound of the smaller kantos, but even with the bass turned up it was still lacking. That’s where the TUK’s shined. Enough bass to fill out the sound, in a package that while large, doesn’t take up all the desk space and with an impeccable flat sound. ... show more
