Aswell as following eleven’s very sensible advice above (so sensible I didn’t think of it). You must buy something like a blue herring bone checked suit. An elegant Dion blue would be advised. One featuring opulent gold trims and a subtle heritage check perhaps. One styled to create a true impression, it must be an eye catching suit with an on-trend yet luxurious slim-fitting look, with a coordinating waistcoat and pocket square as well as a stylish gold contrast lining and the seal of a quality lapel pin from the designer. The Designer has to have a very sweet sounding poetic name also. One that makes you imagine they’re very attractive. This essential addition to your life will definitely mean your neighbours will think you do important business stuff as they see you going out your front door and later walking back in (just don’t walk back in immediately, they may catch on) Oh and buy a brief case. Please don’t ask what type of brief case, sorry Ive got some urgent business stuff to do right now. - I just don’t have time. 😊
There's a really big difference between knowing something and being able to articulate what you know. This is based on my personal experience, not on your video, which does a splendid job of explaining. Thanks.
This video was all I ever needed to see! I’ve been so confused by this whole audio world for ever. Great work Kanto! I’ve been looking for a one stop shop to play my phone, laptop, TV and record player in my apartment! Getting the Tuk
I like it when I can hear "my" music in very good sound quality, especially at home, but I'm neither an "audiophile" nor a technical expert, I'm just a music lover, so I like such videos either
It's horrible with AUX ? Because my usb will be plug on my pc but i want to sometimes plug AUX to my monitor for my Xbox, it will be sad if the sound is trash :/
@@masterchief9148 I wouldn't say the AUX is horrible, but using a USB connection is definitely a huge improvement. Also, I would look into gaming on the PC as Microsoft is merging a lot of the games, on XBOX, over to PC
Incredibly useful video. I have a buzzing noise through RC that I can not get rid of when connected to a MacBook pro. Bought this Cubilux USB TO Toslink adaptor after watching this.
Landed on this channel trying to learn about DACs and I see that you have a great teaching skill of explaining things that are complicated for novice audio enthusiasts in simple terms by comparing it with other products we take for granted.
i managed to find a new-old-stock google chromecast audio. it's got a 3.5 out, but it's secretly optical if you have the right cable. that supports HD audio. google home/nest BT audio is basically trash. it will not stay in sync if you have other speakers around the house. casting has no issues.

Useful. So, if my turntable is hooked up to to a preamp, I have to use the RCA input instead of the phono input. The problem is that I need my RCA input for my other audio devices. I know there is a 3.5mm jack on the front of the tuk, but I don't want cables running out the front.
If you have good a good DAC use the RCA or the 3.5mm jack (analog stuff) and if you dont have a DAC or dont even know what it is use the usb or optical inputs
The SPDIF cable is subject to the same interference as the analogue as its constructed the same way out of the same materials. That leaves the toslink as the only dgital input not subject to external interference by electro magnetic devices. While the toshiba cable can be a superior transmission method the standards of what can be delivered via toslink have never been updated as its really glorified fishing line, not fibre, but will be fine for 2 channel. I have strange visions of a speaker drying to make sense of a SPDIF transmission, when I would have thought the electronics on the back plate would have done that.
TOSlink is not just fiber optical connection using a solid strand of glass. It's optical plastic tube covered over with insulation to make it more sturdy. The tube itself is only a millimeter in diameter and the the walls are paper thin. The light travels up to 100 feet in the walls of the tube. Real fiberoptic lines are much more expensive and more difficult to make a connection. TOSlink is what I use for medium distance digital audio transmission on my property since I prefer not to use TOSlink repeaters
I really like optical and it's sad they never improved it with much more bandwidth it would fix all my problems which now is hard to get lossless digital audio like 7.1 from a gaming console which needs expensive receivers that then get outdated and need a whole new hdmi standard like current hdmi 2.1👎😠
I know. I dont get to use my PS5's 3D sound on my hometheater speakers because I dont want to shell out for a new receiever with hdmi 2.1. I have to just use regular PS5 audio through my fancy hometheater setup. 😅😅 First world problems. 🤣
ARCe.... let's add more stuff to our HDMI and who's going to control the music? Yamaha, Klipsch, McIntosh or Windows 11. Yes, most kid's don't even know what real music truly sounds like today. Luckily I grew up in a bedroom that was full the bands equipment and I never want to hear another Beatles song ever again. But the Digital and Dalby industry destroyed true sound quality for many year's, it was sad. Every CD sounded like crap but tape didn't get stuck on track 6, lol. Yes lm happy to see true sound quality in every topic these days, as music 🎶 makes the sole happy 😊. Rock on my friend, good topic. Thanks again! Don't forget to stack up them old klipsch speakers to the ceiling for an awesome sound stage system sound up-front 🎶....
Thanks a lot for this video, this is something I was looking for as a layman because to my knowledge this is one of the rare videos that finally explains this topic in an easy-to-understand way. My CD player has an optical output so I could use the optical input of such speakers, right? Do such speakers support the FLAC codec either? Is the normal USB port as seen in this video only there to charge a smartphone, for example, or can it also be used to play digital music files from external storage media? If not, how can I do that without using a PC? That's also part of "streaming" for me.
> My CD player has an optical output so I could use the optical input of such speakers, right? Yeah the Tuk here had that option that would work for you. > Do such speakers support the FLAC codec either? Is the normal USB port as seen in this video only there to charge a smartphone, for example, or can it also be used to play digital music files from external storage media? If not, how can I do that without using a PC? Codecs are processed before they get to these speakers - they're the first thing in the digital audio playback chain: Encoded data (e.g. flac) -> Decoded data (e.g. optical connection) -> analog line level -> analog speaker level -> speaker The speakers here handle most of that with inbuilt components, but not that first decoding step. Decoding is typically done by a CPU of some sort - your phone, PC or many TVs and consoles and streamers. I would expect no such CPU in this speaker - you'd need to connect it to one of the above devices that also supports decoding the files on a USB drive. The USB port on here isn't for connecting a drive, and I wouldn't expect it to charge a smartphone either. It's just an alternative input for the same data as the optical input.
Great video. I am struggling to figure out how to connect my DAP to the tuk. I want a wired digital connection. My DAP has a 3.5 mm out. What kind of cable would I use to connect to the Tuk to get a wired digital connection?
If your DAP's 3.5 mm output supports optical connection, you could just get a 3.5 mm to optical adapter or just get a pre-terminated 3.5 mm to optical cable.
Also cheaper active studio monitors do have hissing as they have higher noise floor. There is no way to get rid of it, better quality monitors that are more expensive have lower noise floor.
We have disconnected and bypassed the inbuilt speaker of our desktop telephone and want to connect it to a Kanto speaker. Which input on the Kantos should we connect it to. Thanks
What is best input from Led TV to sound bar.. I have output port in my led is: Coaxial and Aux. What should I purchase to get best audio quality? DAC converter or ADC converter or coax to optical converter...?
Question for you, I record my band jam sessions on my phone... I then connect my android phone from USB C into HDMI into the tv... Then I come out of the tv OPTICAL into my DAC box OPTICAL... Then, out of my DAC box, L an R RCA into my MIXING board L an R stereo channel... Then obviously out of the MIXING board I have my SUBWOOFER and two PA SPEAKERS... Is this ok, bc it sounds great to me... My DAC box is no longer working after 3yrs so I'm looking to get a (Douk Audio ST-01 PRO 200W Bluetooth Amplifier) in replacement of the DAC... Just wanted to see if I could get your advice... Great videos!!!
I’m new to your channel and really like what I see so far. However I’m curious the very first video I watched you’re rightfully raving about sealed enclosure’s. The very next video this one, I see both these speaker’s are ported. Just curious as to why. I was thinking small driver so you wanted to exaggerate some lower frequencies.
I want to buy a Kanto TUK speaker, but what turns me off is that I have a Streamer, which would go to the RCA input; but I also have a Turntable with an external Phono Amp (that I'd like to keep) and therefore I'd need another pair or RCA input or an AUX input like the YU4s... but TUK removed that option, and I don't want to use the internal phono :( Is there a way to switch that Phono to Line signal? Thanks!
Can I plug in a turntable into a phono preamp and then to the Tuk? Would the connection from the phono preamp go into the phono ports on the Tuk or the RCA?
Regarding the amazon echo devices (10:47) are you telling us to wire a speaker to another speaker? How humiliating that is for the poor echo dot... Now more serious: is there any dac that auto wakes from bluetooth?
slightly off subject but I heard that some speakers even if their wired through aux are not losses and have latency does the YU2 have zero latency? I need for dJing so latency is a big problem my current blu tooth speaker (even though connected through aux) the headphone and the speaker are not in time so it is making mixing a problem.
So I have my Tuk's going into my Rodecaster Pro 2 via optical, and then into my pc via usb. All I get is feeback from my speakers, am I doing something wrong?
Hi! I have the Kanto Yu4 speakers but am having trouble with them playing through my docking station. When plugged directly into my macbook they play just fine. But I like to have my macbook connected to a docking station to run all my peripherals via one cable but when the speakers are plugged into the docking station the speakers after about 4 seconds start to skip video and audio an is un-useable, is there a reason why? and a way to work around this? They are connected the supplied 3.5mm cable. Thanks
If you're using RCA you can reverse the right and left cables. If you're using digital then you're out of luck unless the speaker has a L/R swap feature. Out of all of our current speakers, TUK is the only one that can swap channels.
Hi guys! I’m looking into building a 5.1 pc setup hooking YU4s to a soundblaster z. I would appreciate any thoughts from your behalf regarding that idea!
Better to just set up a 2.0 or 2.1 system with your Soundblaster. You're gonna need 2 pairs of YU4 for the main left-right and surround channels, a powered sub and another single speaker of somekind for the center channel. Don't know if you have the deskspace for that kind of setup though.
@@sonang7721 Thanks for the reply! I would route cables to the back of my pc room for the surrounds. The center channel would be a hassle though because it would have to be a single active speaker. Right now I have a Logitech 5.1 system, but was looking for an audio upgrade, and Kanto seems to be very well reviewed.
@@mindblockandroid Running a 4.1 setup with no center channel is also an option with the soundblaster if I remember correctly. As for that single active speaker, try looking for a cheaper pair of smaller powered speakers and then ditch the passive one.
I was thinking about this too, since i've also a soundblaster z. But then you would connect the speakers with AUX and therefore use the soundblaster z as DAC. Now the main question would be, if the soundblaster z DAC is better than the build-in Kanto DACs. And my guess would be, that the SB z is worse. Also it's impossible to use the SB z optical output, because it's impossible to daisy chain the speakers as a 5.1 system. That would end up in left speaker -> right speaker -> right speaker -> right speaker and so on 😂
How can I hook up my printer to the speakers? I want my neighbors to know when I print something so they think I do important business stuff. Thanks.

Easy. Just play a clip of a printer running on youtube. Done.
Neighbors now respect you, because you indeed have the need to print documents.
hi Josh, I thought you always wanted to print out lists of the music played ..... Cheers !!

My question is, what is the dac on board? What r it’s resolution
optical is the way to go if you can 100 no static but its wired there is no back ground sound at all it makes you jump sometimes :)
@6:47 Noooooo! Not Golden Eye! You monster! How could you?? 🤣
If you have good a good DAC use the RCA or the 3.5mm jack (analog stuff) and if you dont have a DAC or dont even know what it is use the usb or optical inputs
🙌
+1 on this. I get better sound by using an external DAC and RCA.
Which dac do you use?
The 3.5mm cable plugged into the Aux input has the "mic" contact on it. A 3.5mm TRS cable should be used
The SPDIF cable is subject to the same interference as the analogue as its constructed the same way out of the same materials. That leaves the toslink as the only dgital input not subject to external interference by electro magnetic devices. While the toshiba cable can be a superior transmission method the standards of what can be delivered via toslink have never been updated as its really glorified fishing line, not fibre, but will be fine for 2 channel.
