On another matter, the Yu6 are clearly not the kind of speakers I would want to place on my desktop, unlike the Yu2.

Well-known for its strength and rigidity, Kevlar® ensures accurate sound reproduction even at higher volumes. Armed with a variety of connectivity options like Bluetooth aptX, RCA, and AUX, these speakers ensure that you're always plugged into the best audio experience.I’m not sure why this is the case, but reboots and re-pairing don’t seem to completely eliminate it, which is disappointing given expectations with this kind of connectivity.

The Kanto’s are better at my desk as they’re more balanced and less fatiguing for long listening sessions, also noticeably more compact. aux socket on the rear allows the phono input to be kept as such and makes the YU6 a very capable proposition indeed – certainly something that gives affordable source, amp and speaker combos something to think about. The cabinets are conventional enough and are nicely engineered with curved corners and fitted with a 25mm silk dome tweeter partnered to a 133mm Kevlar mid/bass driver. This allows users to easily hook up turntables, as there is an integrated phono preamp inside the YU6s. Crafted meticulously with the needs of the music lover in mind, these speakers dive right into the heart of your favourite tracks, bringing out the richness of every single note with stunning clarity.As I’ve said one of the reasons I bought the YU6 was distortion when using the B2 amp with speakers connected direct, and trying to get a sound satisfactory to me with the graphic equaliser. Underneath, reset buttons can be found for each of the equalizer settings as well as a mute button in the middle. Connectivity is a breeze with the YU6 speakers, which are equipped with Bluetooth aptX technology, offering you the convenience of playing music from any device.

You might find this an excellent addition for use in larger spaces or a more extended low-end for films and games. Furthermore, they feature RCA and AUX inputs and even include a built-in phono preamp, which makes them compatible with a range of analog and digital devices. WHAT'S COVERED: Immediate protection against accidental damage, along with cover for breakdowns and faults not covered by the seller/manufacturer warranty.As upper-bass and lower-mids are lightly attenuated, mids aren’t warm despite some mid-bass emphasis. There is a lot of good stuff that lives in the 100-1000 range and vocals, guitars, and other things just won't sound right if that area isn't dialed in. You can build a system based on the ‘classic’ way of doing things, but as the concept of a piece of source equipment becomes increasingly intangible there are numerous speaker systems with built-in amplification and wireless music streaming capabilities.
