Kanto TUK Powered Bookshelf Speakers with Bluetooth® 4.2 with Qualcomm® aptX™, Phono Pre-Amp (Matte Black)

Product Information

The TUK sports your standard RCA inputs in addition to dedicated Phono Pre-amp inputs (including RIAA equalisation), Optical (TOSLINK) and Bluetooth with Apt-X.

The underlying instrumental track is rather busy, but it stays neatly in the background so as not to get in the way of her vocals. The upper strings were bright yet sweet, the bass was well focused, and the transparency was amazing. RCA inputs, phono input (with a place to ground the turntable if needed), usb input, optical input, and a sub out. Customizable Sound: Built-in DAC/preamp allows for personalized sound experience and adaptation to various media. You can control the input, turn the subwoofer on and off, change the amount of bass/treble these have, and a lot more.makes a more substantial difference on battery-powered devices due to its lower power consumption, however, I can see some wanting the latest standard on a more premium speaker as it does offer more range.

Near the top of each speaker’s rear panel is a round bass-reflex port, and on the electronics-laden speaker rear is much more: a ground post for a turntable, left- and right-channel phono inputs (RCA), L/R line inputs (RCA), a USB port, an optical digital input (TosLink), a USB charging port, a subwoofer output jack (RCA), output terminals to connect the other speaker, an IEC power inlet and fuse panel, and a master on/off rocker switch. This will activate an HPF / LPF network and send anything below 80 Hz to the subwoofer and anything above 80 Hz to the speakers.What most impressed me was the Tuks’ reproduction of Gascoyne’s bass line, with every plink and plunk solid and well defined.
