Sealed subwoofers react to changes in audio more quickly than vented designs. Every bass note is reproduced accurately with little distortion, allowing you to hear pure audio and not the subwoofer's influence on the sound.

With a roughly 11 x 11" footprint, the sub8 fits under desks or in the smallest of apartments, whereas traditional home theater subwoofers may dominate your available space.

All the materials used are designed for years of worry-free longevity. Never worry about moving or placing items on the sub8, as it can take the rigors of everyday life.

The simple, unfussy look and vinyl finish of the sub8 blends well into any décor and provides a cohesive look with Kanto speakers for unmatched aesthetics.

The adjustable high-pass filter and phase switch let you integrate the sub8 into your audio system, regardless of the speakers being used, ensuring you're not leaving performance on the table.

[Sealed] Excellent speakers with extremely crisp sound. Highly recommended. Perfect balance b/w size and sound quality for desktop, but could also be used for TV, turntable, etc. 5

[White] I have a bit of addiction to small, bookshelf loudspeakers. I have Klipsch RP600m, B&W DM601, Jamo S801, KEF 103.2, and others....I bought these Kanto YUP6 on glowing reviews I saw on YouTube. For under $200, how could I go wrong. Well, they are simply amazing! They outperform and/or rival all the other speakers I have in my collection. In fact, I recently put them up against $1600 KEF LS50 Meta and they actually held there own! Not sure there was $1400 of improvement. Not sure what magic dust Kanto used, but they built a unicorn! 5

[40 to 120 Hz] I'm using those as computer speakers in my office. I used to have a 2.1 system but the sound from those is so much better. The remote is great and allows you to switch between sources, skip tracks (for bluetooth), adjust bass an trebble. 5

[Floorstanding ] I bought these for my small 8x12 workshop and run my portable hq music player through them. No amplification required. I have them suspended at ear level. Surprisingly good sound quality for their size. Very happy with this purchase. Always have great service and support from B&H!! 5

[0 / 180°] I needed a small powerful bookshelf speaker for my living room. These work better than expected and look real classy. The sound is clean and crisp. I do recommend these for sure. 5

[0 / 180°] Amazing speakers for the non-audiophile that appreciates great sound AND design! Make sure you get the angles right though, because that can really affect the sound 5

[Sealed] I work in the home automation industry so I listen to a lot of high end speakers all the time. Let me say that you'll get the same sound out of 200$ speakers that you would get in 7000$ speakers but, that doesn't mean these aren't worth picking up. For 200$ the Kevlar woofers give a nice warm mid-low end and the silk tweeter provides excellent clarity. These speakers were tested at low, medium, and high volumes and provides excellent retention of quality. Although they look very appealing to the eyes, the chassis is a bit cheaper feeling, but for the price who is feeling their speakers all the time? Overall 5-star. Will append 6 months down the road 5

[White] Outstanding speakers. Make sure to open your audio console and turn off ALL equalization and sound effects. At first, the sound was terrible, but once I cancelled all the equalization and sound effects, the speakers truly shined. Highly recommended. 5

[Metal] These are terrific little speakers. They fill our condo with great , warm sound from all sources, turntable, CD or internet. Well made speakers, you will no be disappointed. 5
