Kanto TUK Passive (2nd Gen) Bookshelf Speakers with AMT Tweeters - Pair

Kanto TUK Passive(2nd Gen) offers signature acoustics while, importantly, giving you flexibility with external amplification. Additionally, responsive AMT tweeters and 5.25-inch aluminum woofers deliver detailed highs and controlled bass. Meanwhile, redesigned MDF cabinets provide a stable acoustic foundation for balanced, neutral sound. Finally, you can choose the integrated amplifier or receiver that best fits your system.

Passive Design with Amplifier Flexibility

Want more control over how you build your audio system? Kanto TUK Passive(2nd Gen) contains no internal power supply or amplification electronics, leaving that job to your preferred integrated amplifier or receiver. This straightforward approach lets you combine Kanto’s acoustic engineering with external amplification while maintaining a clean, flexible high-fidelity setup.

5.25-Inch Aluminum Woofer with Controlled Bass

The 5.25-inch aluminum concave cone woofer works with a redesigned cabinet that provides increased internal volume. Together, they produce tight, articulate bass extending down to 50 Hz. Think of the larger cabinet as giving the woofer more room to work, helping low frequencies develop with depth and control rather than simply adding more bass.

Ultra-Responsive Air Motion Transformer Tweeters

Kanto TUK Passive(2nd Gen) uses 28 mm x 35 mm Air Motion Transformer tweeters designed to respond quickly to transients. The AMT design provides detailed, smooth highs with excellent high-frequency dispersion while supporting fatigue-free listening. Subtle details remain clear, helping the speakers maintain a refined presentation across their 50 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response.

65 W RMS Power Handling Per Speaker

Each speaker handles 65 W RMS while, importantly, supporting up to 130 W peak power. Additionally, the 4-ohm nominal impedance supports integration with your chosen external amplification. Meanwhile, Kanto TUK Passive(2nd Gen) maintains consistent, uncolored sound across different listening spaces. Finally, its passive design gives your amplifier or receiver a capable speaker platform to drive.

Redesigned Acoustic-Grade MDF Cabinets

A speaker cabinet does more than hold the drivers. These rear-ported, acoustic-grade MDF cabinets provide a solid foundation designed to damp unwanted resonance. Kanto also uses sharper geometry and defined edges to reduce edge diffraction, combining acoustic considerations with a more architectural appearance.

Premium Four-Way Binding Posts

Reliable connections are essential while, importantly, maintaining a clean signal path in a passive audio system. Additionally, Kanto TUK Passive(2nd Gen) features premium four-way knurled binding posts for secure connections. As a result, they provide reliable coupling between the speakers and your chosen amplifier or receiver.

Flexible Speaker Stand Mounting

Each cabinet includes a 1/4"-20 threaded hole on the bottom for secure speaker stand mounting. Rubber feet are also included in the box, giving you practical options when positioning the speakers within your listening space.

Compact Bookshelf Size with a Solid Build

Each Kanto TUK Passive(2nd Gen) speaker measures 7.2 inches wide, 10 inches deep, and 12 inches high. Each speaker weighs 11.5 lb, bringing the combined weight of the pair to 23 lb. The matte black and gunmetal finish complements the sharper geometry for a defined, intentional look.
