  • Great speakers when you get the subwoofer
Color: Matte Black
I had been looking at new speakers for my desktop for awhile. There were a few choices I had, but ultimately, I decided to go with these speakers. They were the best bang for the buck and have a fairly impressive feature set. My setup is a AE5-PLUS sound card, speakers are hooked up through AUX 3.5mm connection. I did try the Optical connection as well. For the speakers themselves, they are fairly large for desktop speakers and might be difficult to find appropriate space for depending on how your desk is. They offer very good listening in the nearfield range. I bought the angled speaker stands to give a slightly better listening experience, though ideally, you would probably want them on a stand for optimal listening experience. The one real issue I have with these speakers is the low end mid bass. We're talking in the 60-120hz range. They have this very woofy sound (not sure exactly how to describe it). It's very overpowering. Even though they claim they can produce sound as low as 50hz, I'd recommend pairing these with a subwoofer. Kanto has a few models to choose from, but any powered sub will work fine with them. You need to make sure the sub has controls for Crossover frequency, but it will be a huge part in getting maximum value out of the speakers. I purchased the 6" Kanto sub after the fact to clean up the bass and give the best possible listening experience. Kanto states that the sub should be set to cross over of 70hz, but I feel 60hz is better and really cleans up the mid bass from the satellites. This is when you notice just how crisp and clear these speakers can be. They have excellent mid range. Bright without being overly so. You won't get fatigued from listening to it. Overall they are quality speakers, but depending on your application, you milage will vary if you don't have a subwoofer to pair them with. If you don't, then you'll have to use an EQ and significantly lower the 40-80 hz bands (whatever is closet to 60hz, that seems to be the pain point for these speakers). The sub isn't that expensive and greatly increases the listening experience. Truthfully, these speakers should almost come as a set with the sub, because I'd venture to guess most people will find them completely unlistenable without the sub. For reference, I listen to a lot of rock and metal music. Some songs are worse than others, but that awful hum from the mid bass is very hard to ignore. Good thing most people don't listen to music flat. ... show more

  • A very nice sounding set of speakers...
Color: Matte Black
I was looking for a pair of speakers to replace a set of computer speakers I've been using in our bedroom for many years. The existing 2.1 Altec Lansing speakers sounded pretty good, but there was no balance control, and the volume adjustment was on one of the speakers itself, so I had to keep the speaker within reach on the night stand which took a lot of real estate. So I was looking for a good sounding speaker system which was bluetooth and had a remote control. I was initially looking for a Bose solution since I have a few different Bose speakers and I think they sound really good, but sadly they don't seem to make a solution like this, and the bose store wanted to sell me two of their $400 360 degree speakers which I could play in stereo via a phone app, but not from a computer, so I wasn't into that solution. So, my initial reaction to these is that they sound very good. I won't say they are "Amazing", because my little Bose Soundlink mini is amazing because it sounds about as good as this, but it's a sixth of the size and runs on a battery. They have a lot of bass which is fully adjustable, and they sound very full and I'm very happy with how they sound. They can get pretty loud, even though that's not really what I got them for. So, bottom line, I would recommend these to anybody who was comfortable spending the money for them to get a speaker which is going to sound better than your typical low end speaker. I do have three cons about them however... The speakers have an Auto Power Down (APD) feature which you cannot disable which causes them to shutdown after 15 mins of no signal detected to save power. It also has an Auto Power Up (APU) feature which detects a signal and turns them back on. This would ordinarily be a great feature, but the APU doesn't work with bluetooth, so I am unable to use it like I did before where I just turn on my notebook and the music is on, I must hit the power button on the speakers. Not a big deal, but disappointing. The other issue is that the "main" speaker, much like lots of other bluetooth devices on the market, has a fairly bright blue light denoting an active bluetooth connection, as well as a not that dim bluish white light which denotes that it is on. This probably won't affect most people interested in these speakers, but if you want them for your bedroom like I do, they are bright enough to bother you when you're trying to sleep. Happily, I have faced this issue before and I covered it with window tint, which doesn't appear to affect the remote control function, so all is well in the world. There is no dust cover included (or available as far as I know). Some mention of this was made in other reviews and a lot of people replied saying how "cool" these speakers look and that a dust cover might interfere with their good looks, but quite frankly I assume that most people care more about what they sound like rather than what they look like, and I'm afraid that in a few months that there's going to be dust all over the speakers which is a bit of a shame. If you care more about what your speakers look like, you should probably just just buy something from Kmart... So I didn't remove any stars for any of these because it probably wouldn't affect most people, but I thought they were worth mentioning... So overall, a very nice set of speakers. ... show more

  • Not flashy but great for what they are.
Color: Matte Black
I originally bought Vanatoo Zero. They are great for imaging but the vibration and passive radiator along with the weird form factor added up returning them. I am old guy and I've had expensive, quality stuff. I need to down-size and "down-cable" at a smaller work station. I was ready to go to Kanto Tuk but it's too big for my desktop. So I have the YU4 now. I am very happy with them. They sound better all the time; actually blooming to my ears. The form factor is subtle and acceptable. The bass is not going to kick your ass but if you expect something this size to do that you have a bigger problem than low bass response. The are clear and the imaging is good...not great, but good. They are versatile, well-made and have great features...except there should be a usb input. For me they are keepers. I was also close to KEF lsx ii but why spend that kind of money? For desktop sound at enjoyable volume you aren't going to get better. These few morons that complain about noise probably have trouble with light switches. There is 0 noise, and all the input sources work great. Great product at a reasonable price. ... show more
