Kanto Yu2 (2nd Gen) Powered Desktop Speakers (Pair)

Kanto Yu2 (2nd Gen) Powered Desktop Speakers

Ultra-compact size, powerful desktop performance — available at Vinyl Sound USA. The next-generation Kanto Yu2 powered desktop speakers deliver balanced, fatigue-free sound through 3" abaca-reinforced woofers, 3/4" silk dome tweeters, and 110W peak bi-amplified power. With a plug-and-play USB-C DAC, Bluetooth 5.0 streaming, and a dedicated subwoofer output, the Yu2 G2 brings rich, full sound to any computer workspace.

Desktop Sound, Elevated

Designed specifically for close-proximity computer listening, the Yu2 G2 delivers clean, articulate audio without crowding your workspace. A responsive bi-amplified Class-D platform provides 55W RMS (110W peak) of dedicated power for expansive volume, precise stereo imaging, and balanced tone right at your desk.

Plug-and-Play USB-C Audio

The built-in USB-C digital-to-analog converter (DAC) bypasses your computer's noisy onboard sound card, streaming clean digital audio (up to 16-bit/48kHz) directly from your PC or Mac through a single cable.

Smooth, Fatigue-Free Acoustics

Engineered for long work sessions, gaming, and everyday listening, dedicated 7.5W amplifiers drive the smooth 3/4" silk dome tweeters for crisp highs, while 20W amplifiers power the rigid 3" abaca-reinforced paper woofers for tight, punchy low-end down to 90 Hz.

Versatile Connectivity & Expansion

Connect any source with ease: stream wirelessly via Bluetooth 5.0, connect analog gear through the 3.5mm AUX input, or plug directly into laptops and workstations over USB-C. For deeper low-end, connect a powered subwoofer to the dedicated sub-out for instant bass expansion.

Thoughtful Workspace Integration

Tailored for clean desk setups, the Yu2 2nd Gen features a multi-functioned front LED button for quick power, wake, and input switching without reaching behind the speaker. A selectable left/right active-speaker switch lets you position the powered unit on whichever side suits your setup.

Q: What is the Kanto Yu2 (2nd Gen)?
A: It's a pair of ultra-compact powered desktop speakers with a Class-D bi-amplifier (110W peak), 3" abaca-reinforced woofers, 3/4" silk dome tweeters, a built-in USB-C DAC, and Bluetooth 5.0 — made for computer and desktop listening.

Q: Does the Yu2 have a built-in USB DAC?
A: Yes. The built-in USB-C DAC bypasses your computer's onboard sound card and streams clean digital audio up to 16-bit/48kHz from a PC or Mac over a single cable.

Q: How do the Yu2 differ from the Yu4?
A: The Yu2 is a smaller desktop speaker (3" woofers, 110W peak, USB-C 16-bit/48kHz, Bluetooth 5.0) built for near-field computer use. The Yu4 is a larger bookshelf system with 4" woofers, more power, a built-in phono preamp, and higher-resolution inputs for room listening.

A: Yes. A dedicated subwoofer output lets you connect a powered subwoofer for extended low-end.

Q: What inputs does it have?
A: 3.5mm AUX, Bluetooth 5.0, and USB-C (16-bit/48kHz). There is no phono input, so a turntable would need a phono preamp into the AUX input.
