Am I crazy for preferring these Kanto YU powered bookshelf speakers over my Martin Logan motion 4i's?

I love my Kanto speakers too! I recently upgraded my living room from Kanto TUK to Martin Logan XT B100, and honestly I prefer the sound of the TUK. I just wish Kanto made a louder TUK. I have the Kanto yu2 as desktops and those are nice too.

What does your setup include/why?

You’ll know what you need as time goes on, you should really only get what you need. But with that said I think speakers might be your biggest upgrade, I used to wear my nova pros all day and although they were wireless I still found them annoying to be on my head all day.

It is done!

If you want boomy bass, video game immersionEdifier MR4 is a good entry level speakers.Kanto Ora / Yu2 or Audioengine A2 if you want something more premium. If you want accurate sound with a small foot printIloud micro or Adam Audio offers pretty small but accurate sounding speakers.

New Setup Complete!

https://a.co/d/06mDU0W Kanto YU2 speakers. Got them for 169 used on eBay but they are awesome. Def wait for them to go on sale cause they are pricey. I wish I went with the black ones instead honestly.

How do you like the PreSonus Eris Sub 8BT subwoofer?

Hey how are you liking the PreSonus Eris Sub 8BT? Looks like it's back down to $180 and I'm considering an order. It would solve 2 shortcomings of my Kanto YU2 speakers, which sound great to my ears but lack Bluetooth and a high pass filter.

Extremely limited space

Kanto ORA or YU2 with a Kanto SUB6 or SUB8. Small package, BIG SOUND.

PULSE explore!

They are the Kanto YU2. https://www.amazon.com/Kanto-Composite-Amplifier-Subwoofer-YU2WALNUT/dp/B08KWQ7SM1?sr=8-1 I really like them! I am a full time editor so I needed something relatively neutral for work. They have been great and go on sale often so they didn't break the bank.

Narrowed it down to these 6 speakers, whats your pick?

I have a pair of Kanto Yu2’s and they are incredible. I’d go with Kanto over the Edifier any day of the week.
