Introduction

Thank you for choosing YU2 Powered Speakers, designed by Kanto in Canada. YU2 outputs 25W
RMS per channel into 4 Ohm speakers, for remarkably bold and clean sound. Excellent sensitivity
and frequency response provide deep thumping lows and clear, scintillating highs, surprising for
speakers of this size. YU2 is a remarkably fl exible computer speaker system that can accept two
input sources and connect to a subwoofer for enhanced low frequency effect (LFE).

We recommend you read all instructions carefully before using the system, and keep them for
future reference. Kanto cannot be liable for damage or injury caused by incorrect setup or use of
this product.

This powered speaker system was carefully tested and inspected during production, and before
packaging and shipping. After unpacking, please check for any damage. It is rare that a unit is
damaged during shipping, but if this happens contact your retailer immediately. You can also
call Kanto directly at 1-888-848-2643 or email [e-mail].
