Are Kanto Yu6 good speakers for producing?
You'll need studio monitors, not bookshelf speakers like the Kanto YU6. Bookshelf speakers are designed to sound good, for consumers. Studio monitors are designed to sound accurate, for producers.

Edifier R1855DB + T5: Over 40 Days, Money Lost, and Trust Destroyed (#101306)
Yeah, I had the same feeling with the Edifiers, especially the mids. They have that classic V-shape tuning: boosted bass and highs, recessed mids. I get why it sells, but for me, the vocals never sounded truly alive, like they were slightly hollow or coming through something. I spent a lot of time t

Edifier R1855DB + T5: Over 40 Days, Money Lost, and Trust Destroyed (#101306)
Hey man! Funny story. Back then I was recommending people check out Kanto YU6 (and a few others like Audioengine A5+, Fluance Ai81, Vanatoo) as the next step up, but I couldn’t resist and ended up buying the YU6 myself (black). And damn, after getting everything hooked up properly, this 2.1 system w

Why are LSX II $1500 on their site and only $500 at my local Costco?
I have Kanto YU6 for my computer. The KEF's are night and day better than the Kanto's... The Kanto's play louder but the clarity is just not there.. KEF all the way and yes a no brainer versus the LSX 2

KC62 vs. LS50W2
I looked into the Kanto TUK when I was getting the YU6 and there were too many negative opinions on the high end 'brightness' essentially saying it would start to be painful... so I just got the YU6 as a stop gap whilst I found some R3's (there was no way I was going to pay anywhere near retail on R

Is LSX II LT good for modern music?
Really need a good clean sub. I got them for $370 (ebay open box) a few weeks ago replacing my kanto yu6. First thing I notice was the better clarity, details and soundstage of the music. Love the app and all the options it gives. Im using a monolith 10v2 has a sub. Running boths at 75hz high pass a

Starke Sound Beta 5 Yay or Nay?
I'll experiment with x-over settings and I also have some foam laying around that is perfect to size some port blockers; they'll only be about 6" from the wall, unfortunately. Which is why I also considered the Triangle Borea BRO3. The Beta 5s are now 30mi away so I should get them, tomorrow. I'm us

Congrats on the new place and wedding—that’s a fun setup to build 👍 For what you’re trying to do (TV + streaming + some Logic use), I’d actually keep this simpler than you might think. Instead of separate amp + speakers + sub right away, I’d strongly consider going with a good pair of powered (activ

What speakers do you use in your bedroom?
Wall mounted Kanto YU6s with an SVS PB1000 in the corner. The sub was a deal I couldn’t pass up, so I made it work. A little overkill, but it definitely fills in the gaps.
