Industry Canada Notice: Complies with CAN ICES-3(B) / NMB-3(B) Introduction Thank you for choosing YU5 Powered Speakers, designed by Kanto in Canada. YU5 outputs 40W 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. YU5 is an amazingly flexible speaker system that can accept five input sources and connect to a subwoofer for enhanced low frequency effects (LFE). Additionally, it is equipped with the latest Bluetooth technology and a USB port for charging USB devices. YU5 operates on a multi-voltage power source from 110 V to 240 V and can be used worldwide. 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 support@kantoaudio.com.

The stands should be of rigid construction, between 45 cm to 69 cm high and preferably have spikes. We recommend the Kanto SP130 speaker stands to go with your YU5. The space between the two speakers and the distance from the listener is important. If the speakers are positioned too close or too far apart, stereo imaging will not be fully developed. YU5 is designed to perform optimally positioned at least 20 cm from the rear wall in an average listening room. However, it may not be possible to install the speakers in this position and since rooms vary in shape, size, and furnishing, a certain amount of experimentation is necessary to determine the most suitable position. Moving the speakers very close to the rear wall will enhance the bass frequencies but will tend to reduce soundstage depth, while moving the speakers away from the rear wall will tend to have the opposite effect. Avoid positioning the speakers close to or in the corners of the room, as this will excite undesirable room coupling in the low and middle frequencies. If the width of the rear wall is limited then toe-in the speakers slightly to reduce reflections. Room characteristics and positioning have a profound effect on the performance of the speakers, so time and effort devoted to achieving the optimum positions will be rewarded. Ensure that the ON/OFF Switch is in the OFF position. Connect the two speakers together as shown below using the supplied speaker cable. Connect the RED (+) and BLACK (−) terminals from the active speaker (left channel) to the corresponding terminals on the passive speaker (right channel). If you wish to place your speakers farther apart than the supplied cable will reach, we recommend that you purchase a heavier gauge of speaker cable to minimize signal loss. Follow the instructions on the ensuing pages to connect your audio sources to YU5. The examples in the following pages are not meant to be exhaustive - just examples. Connect the power cord from YU5’s active speaker to the wall outlet. ATTENTION When connecting audio cables the ON/OFF Switch must be turned OFF. After connecting all cables, the unit can be turned ON. When the volume is high, this system can produce noise levels that could permanently damage your hearing. YU5 is a self-powered speaker system. Do not connect the speaker terminals to the speaker outputs of a stereo amplifier. Damage may occur. Use only the power cord provided with the speakers. Connecting Audio Sources YU5 features a high quality DAC (digital-to-analog converter) that supports data streams up to 24-bit/192 kHz resolution. YU5 supports Bluetooth 4.0 with aptX CODEC technology. Use the appropriate audio cable to connect your audio source components to your speakers. Refer to the following diagrams on connectivity options. • 3.5 mm stereo mini-jack AUX cable • Stereo RCA to 3.5 mm stereo mini-jack ‘Y’ cable • Optical Toslink cable RCA & 3.5 mm Stereo Mini-Jack AUX Connection AUDIO TURNTABLE OUT IN PHONO PRE-AMP (if necessary)* LAPTOP 3.5mm MP3 DOCK CD / DVD MP3 ATTENTION *Some models of turntables include a built-in Phono Pre-Amp. Supporting your digital lifestyle™ Optical & Bluetooth Connection GAME CONSOLES OPT 1 OPT 2 MOBILE DEVICES MEDIA PLAYERS DIGITAL DOCK Bluetooth Pairing YU5 features Bluetooth 4.0 with aptX CODEC technology and can be paired with many devices for wireless audio playback from your phone, MP3 player or tablet. Pairing is easy. 1. Press the Bluetooth button on YU5’s remote to select it as the input source. The Bluetooth LED (white) will flash slowly to indicate that YU5 is in pairing mode. 2. Enable your Bluetooth device to search for a new device to pair with. Select ‘YU5 by Kanto’ from the list of Bluetooth devices available for pairing. 3. If pairing is successful, the Bluetooth LED (white) will remain solid. You will not need to pair the same Bluetooth device again - ‘YU5 by Kanto’ will remain on your device list until you remove it from the list. 4. If the device does not pair with YU5, turn the speaker’s ON/OFF Switch to the OFF position, then repeat Steps 1 to 3. Alternatively, you can turn off Bluetooth in your device and turn it back on again. Bluetooth Operation 1. We recommend keeping a maximum distance of 10 meters between the speaker and your device. The best signal fidelity is within this range. 2. If pairing is successful, the connection between the speaker and your device remains active and functional – that is, you can stream audio from your device to the speaker using either the player control buttons of your device or the control buttons of the remote control (see diagram of Remote Control on page 5 of this manual – buttons #20, #21, and #22). 3. Take note of the following behavior and functionality during Bluetooth operation. When you are successfully connected, the Bluetooth LED will be lit solid, and your device will show as connected to ‘YU5 by Kanto’. • The connection between speaker and device remains active even if input source has changed. For instance, you can switch to another input source (e.g. CD player) and return to Bluetooth operation without losing signal connection and, therefore, do not need to pair with the device again. • When the speaker is put in Standby mode or powered OFF, Bluetooth connection with the device is lost. When the speaker returns to Playback mode, the Bluetooth connection between the speaker and device is re-established. However, you may notice a choppy playback signal for approximately 30 seconds after reconnection. It will normalize. • While the speaker can be paired with more than one device, only one device can play and transmit audio signal at a time. 4. The YU5 remote control features a Bluetooth Reset button to quickly disconnect a paired device and allow a second device to pair with the speaker (button #7 on the Remote Control diagram on page 5). • Press Bluetooth Reset button to disconnect a paired device. • Follow the pairing instructions to pair another device. • The same behavior and functionality apply to the second device. USB Charging Operation YU5 features one 5 V 2.1 A USB charging port on the back panel. This is a convenient power source to charge your devices. When YU5 is in Playback Mode (LED blue) and Standby Mode (LED yellow), the port is active, and whatever device is connected is able to draw up to 2.1 A of power. Supporting your digital lifestyle™ Connecting a Subwoofer YU5 is equipped with an RCA connector to provide output signal to a powered subwoofer. Simply connect a single RCA subwoofer cable from the SUB OUT connection on the YU5 to the AUDIO INPUT on your subwoofer. If your subwoofer has a stereo L/R RCA input, either left or right inputs will work. We recommend the Kanto sub6 or sub8 powered subwoofer with crossover and volume controls. Most quality subwoofers offer these controls, which allow you to customize the amount of bass you will experience.
