Kanto TUK Powered Bookshelf Speakers With Bluetooth Matte White

TUK PREMIUM POWERED SPEAKERS - MATTE WHITE

TUK is hands down the best sounding, most feature-rich speaker Kanto has developed to date!

TUK - Matte White is powered by a 130W RMS class D amplifier, sending 65W RMS to each channel and full digital signal processing (DSP) to tune the speakers exactly how we want them to sound. The TIK also features an active crossover network which further improves low-end resolution by filtering out frequencies below 80Hz when connected to a subwoofer.

TUK - Matte White has an aptX HD codec to stream hi-res audio over Bluetooth. If your device supports aptx HD, you can now enjoy better-than-CD quality audio wirelessly. There are also standard aptX and AAC codecs to ensure you get great quality wireless sound regardless of the device being used.

TUK - Matte White use AMT tweeters which are incredibly lightweight, allowing them to react faster than standard dome tweeters. This translates into super-quick, accurate treble. The pleated construction of an AMT tweeter also improves efficiency by increasing surface area, allowing for more air to be moved than by a comparatively sized dome tweeter. Their rectangular shape limits vertical dispersion so that less audio is reflected off the ceiling and floor, while still maintaining a relatively wide horizontal dispersion. This ensures all listeners in the room hear a consistent frequency response.

TUK also use Aluminum drivers which are incredibly rigid, making them less prone to deformation when pushed to their limit. By preventing the driver from flexing, they reduce the amount of distortion the driver introduces to the audio being played.

The input display on the TUK features dedicated LEDs for each input which give you visual confirmation of which input is being used. It’s a small detail but takes the guesswork out of switching between your devices. The brightness of the input display is also adjustable so you can dim or fully turn off the LEDs if you prefer.

You also get a 3.5mm headphone output on the front of TUK allowing you to use headphones with any audio source connected to the speaker. This simple addition, which is rarely seen on speakers in this category, prevents the need to purchase a separate headphone amplifier for more intimate listening.

The TUK also features a built-in dedicated phono preamp to reduce another piece of gear typically required when listening to turntables. There’s a separate RCA input specifically for line sources so you don’t have to flick a switch or share an RCA input between two analog audio sources.

PC onboard audio is notoriously noisy and prone to electromagnetic interference. The USB input, which supports up to 24 bit/96 kHz, gives you a solid digital connection to your PC without the need for an external DAC.

The optical input, which also supports up to 24 bit/96 kHz, gives you a flexible digital connection that can be utilized with TVs, PCs, or digital audio players.

Like all Kanto powered speakers, TUK features a sub-out. But TUK adds the benefit of a selectable active crossover network. The low pass filter sends everything below 80 Hz to the subwoofer and the high pass filter sends anything above 80 Hz to the speakers. This frees up TUK’s built-in amplifier to focus solely on the midrange and highs. Quick, dynamic transients have more impact and accuracy, and TUK can play louder without introducing additional distortion. The sub-out can be enabled or disabled at the press of a button using the remote.

The USB charge port supplies up to 2A to power Smart Home devices or charge phones or tablets.
