Still waiting to see the review of the sixes. As far as powered speakers go those are the ones I'm interested in the most. :)

[@douglasdavid177]

Between these and the vanatoo t1e, in a living room scenario, which has more defined and prominent vocals? This is most important to me because they will be used often for TV shows and movies, and the fact that I won't have a center channel makes me really concerned about clear dialogue that stands out from other sound effects

[@timschutte6924]

, if your gonna spend $600 bucks on a set of powered speakers, I would go with a pair of JBL ARENA 130s and a SMSL SA 98 amp. Much better and it's only $400 bucks. Then you could get a powered subwoofer like the BIC F-12. Then your really gonna have a much better system. It comes out to about $630 bucks total. Just saying

[@BrianBolhofner]

@@timschutte6924 I hear you. That's how I'd prioritize. But I have yet to hear the new generation of self-powered, digital crossovered, pre-dsp fixed speakers. I suppose if you want to start a system with exclusively that kind of speaker, vocal clarity would be a good criterion for the first pair.

[@mattrismatt]

@@timschutte6924 With a massive wave-guide, the JBL ARENA 130s will likely present a larger sound-stage, but they will not provide "more defined and prominent vocals". The Vanatoo t1e would be a far superior all-in-one solution, with various input types accepted and nothing else to buy... except maybe a subwoofer down the line, if so desired.

[@JayJayYUP]

29:10 Your answer's there.

[@H4GRlD]

Great review, just to make sure: I shouldn't use LFE mode on a sub with the TUKs, right? I've just purchased a PB-1000 pro so I guess I'll eventually figure this out when it arrives. 😅 My understanding is that I should always use 80Hz low pass filter on the sub, no matter which mode I use on the TUKs. (crossover on / off)

[@jjoohhhnn]

How are the Tuk's for you? Some people say they're colder, and thin they'd be better for producing music than enjoying music, but the acoustics of their rooms were obviously really bad, and I have spent more soundproofing my room than on the sound system itself (a5 and s8, but the A5's are aging out, and the Tuk's are at the top of my list) which i imagine effects how the decay is received.

[@H4GRlD]

@@jjoohhhnn I really like them! But I can't comment on their "cold" nature, I haven't spent time comparing them to other alternatives and I don't have a great history of owning and testing audio equipment. It's a bit difficult in the EU since most known outlets on KZbin are suggesting USA models that aren't available in my region. If you manage to get a good deal on them and you're looking for this form factor, I find them decent. But around this price point you have a ton of options to look at, especially if you're not specifically looking at active solutions.

[@jjoohhhnn]

@@H4GRlD I only have 11 inches of vertical space, and I need a powered speaker. I'm also looking for the crossover feature, and I really like the look of these. It's 'only' 800 in my region, hopefully they run a small sale but 800 is doable for me. if you don't mind me asking, what are you using for your DAC?

[@H4GRlD]

@@jjoohhhnn Using the built in one, it's hooked up to my PC currently with a toslink cable. I have only used digital signal so far, my experience with their USB driver was not great so I opted for the optical input.

Recently ordered these, about 2 days ago. Currently have the AudioEngine A5+ and their D1 Dac. Really excited for all the features, especially the sub active crossover, i actually bought the Kanto Sub 8 in Gloss White a few years ago cause it was quite a bit cheaper than AE's Sub. Excited for Bluetooth and Optical connection too. Since this has a built in headphone dac/optical input i won't have any need for the AE D1 DAC right?

My A5+ just died. Thinking about replacing with these. Really curious about your thoughts.

@@jameshuegli3534 Love them. If you're into clean, very detailed treble and accurate bass these are amazing. Plenty of options for connectivity. They also look amazing. I got the white ver. To me it was a night and day difference in the clarity between my A5+ and the TUK. Bass is more powerful but still accurate, i didn't need a sub at all for my room whereas i needed one for the A5+.

One suggestion ; the Vanatoo's have more "controlled" Bass; more from the Passive Radiator design, than the DSP - which most likely, does gives It, a bit more refinement.

Why are these now $800? My budget is 300-400, but I'm tempted to pay extra 200 on my 0*. interest amazon card, and get the vanatoo T1Es... I'm just debating if I should wait for black friday, in case other 500-600 speakers get reduced to 400.

update us on the sound bro (no sub), thinking about getting these vs similar price edifier/audioengine. This vs a5+? TUKs the most expensive where i am

[@Xeltos]

@@caspar_gomez Haha, funny enough my previous speakers were the A5+ and these absolutely win. For me there's no contest. I had the A5+ for about 5 years too. For me everything is just clearer there's so much more resolution to the Treble. Mids and Bass are soooo huge for these size speakers. Some people find them harsh which probly comes down to them not placing them right. When you get these positioned for your listening area the imaging to me seems out of this world. I use them as my desktop speakers with Kanto's own stands. Also with my A5+ i also ended up buying AE's DAC which cost me quite a bit too. With these you definitely don't need the DAC. Not to mention even when i first set these up and started placing them/moving them around on my desk they sounded great right off the top. I live in Canada so i ended up paying about 1100$, but to me these are 1000% worth it. Not to mention these are sooo fucking beautiful, especially in white.

[@caspar_gomez]

@@Xeltos thanks for the detailed reply! Really helpful, seems to hard to find normal peoples reviews on this speaker. That's almost exactly what I wanted to hear. I was a bit worried some people said they were harsh/thin/light on bass. But I'm a long time fan of the ultrasone headphone sound which people call fatiguing and lacking bass too. But one thing I really like about them is that they're super detailed and with very well defined, punchy bass, rather than bloated rumbling bass. Think those had aluminium or titanium drivers so maybe they have the same characteristics. Sounds like these may be similar which would suit me great. Already have passive bookshelfs but I want these for a computer desk set up and the functionality is very persuading...but because they'll be used for long hours the fatiguing comments make me pause. Thanks for taking the time, much appreciated.

[@Xeltos]

@@caspar_gomez These definitely do not have bloated or rumbling bass. Very accurate and tight bass/mids and if you have any bass heavy songs these are GODLIKE. WAY more than the A5+ ever had for me. But yeah these do have aluminum drivers. Honestly i listen to them pretty much all day and i never find them harsh or fatuguing. I can't ever see myself getting another pair of speakers, that's how much i love the sound signature and again they're also beautiful speakers. haha

I have another question, i have the Kanto Sub 8 as i said in my previous comment, it has both R/L channel but the TUK's have the single out. Would i benefit at all from getting a splitter? The manual for the Sub 8 says you can use either the left or right channel, so i assume i could just use the cable i already have.

where'd you get those figures of the girls in the cushions?

So zeos did you just say that you would take the m200 over the kanto tuk?

[@vannk73]

Currently $899. Still a no-brainer?

Hey Z, quick question: Kanto Tuks or Vanatoo T1e?

[@matthewburt5302]

Someone answer this please🙃

After watching this is decided to pull the trigger to find something more compact for my office instead of my LS50s / Sprout 100. These did not fit that bill. They sound good (not even close to LS50 good, but decent), but after about 30 minutes even at a lower-medium volume they were very fatiguing. I had to take the treble down so much they sounded flat, even that was still fatiguing. Maybe my ears just didn’t like the tweeter on this, but they got shipped back today 👎🏻 I think they are overpriced for what they provide sound wise.

[@KamiKaXi]

did you allow them to break in right?

[@ynnadk9859]

What did you settle on?

[@RyanZNO]

I went with another pair of LS50s and a Sprout 100

[@ynnadk9859]

@@RyanZNO How is the sprout? I'm debating between it and a NAD3045

[@RyanZNO]

@@ynnadk9859 definitely go with the sprout if you like a more balanced sound. I found the NAD 3045 sounded harsh, not as full bodied. I’m probably not the best at describing this, but the sprout always has a pleasing tonality no matter what you’re listening to.

is it ok to pair the kanto sub8 with the kanto tuks?

Cashmere Cat - Mirror Maru

[@ddlyman]

where can i find the stands you have the speakers on? thanks!

[@jawamniedam]

They are beauty but probably won't be availbe in Poland, and shipping would kill profitability and warranty. So... Edifier S3000 Pro would work on desk? In next two months will finish saving moneys for these, but i'm still not sure. They need to work on 21m2 room for movies too.
