About this deal

TUK: A high-end powered speaker system featuring AMT tweeters, an integrated DAC, and a dedicated headphone amplifier, offering audiophile-grade performance in a compact form factor. YU4’s 1-inch tweeters are made from silk to deliver a high-frequency range that is bright and refined. I was looking for a decent pair of desktop speakers for a while now, and decided on these (I don't need the optical IN-s like on the yu4, I already have a pretty decent DAC) so opted for the stripped down version of yu4.

From 1964 to 1993, Bill Mayhugh (1927-2018) hosted an overnight jazz show on Washington, DC’s WMAL-FM.

Even though I test only one speaker, it could get quite loud and when it got distorted, it mildly went into that region. If you want to improve the sound further, you can put the YUs on speaker stands for better midrange, and even plug in a subwoofer to boost the low end. As a comparison, I regularly listen to Micca MB42, Polk TSI 100, Pioneer BS21, Jamo C91 and Jamo C103's.

SOLID CONSTRUCTION - Solid MDF cabinets reduce unwanted vibrations, and bolted to a compatible Kanto speaker stand, resonances can be further eliminated through coupling.Gear4music Ltd is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA FRN 706272) and acts as a credit intermediary and not a lender, offering credit products provided by a limited number of finance providers, including Klarna Finanacial Services UK Limited and V12 Retail Finance.

YU Passive works great on a desktop with a DAC/amp combo, or in a dedicated two-channel listening station.

From my listening seat I could adjust the volume, bass, and treble, and switch inputs -- no need to use the multifunction button on the front of the left speaker. At the same time, the precision of each layer is detailed enough for smooth transitions, creating a very cohesive setup in the end.SMOOTH TREBLE - Smooth sounding silk dome tweeters produce natural treble response allowing you to listen to YU passive all day with no fatigue. At the beginning of “Night People,” over the YUs I could hear a way-down-there contrabass-clarinet buzz from Chuck Gentry on the right side of the soundstage, and on the left, a crisper-than-usual harp played by veteran session musician Kathyrine Julye.
