Q: Can these be connected directly to a turntable without the need of a receiver?

A: If this is an older turntable, you will probably need a phono pre-amp which you would need to have anyway to connect the turntable to one of today's receivers. In the "old" days, receivers had a phono input which had this pre-amp built into it. Cassette decks and CD players do not need these additional pre-amps. I am using one of these devices to get my 1980's Sony turntable to work with a newer receiver I bought a few years ago. The pre-amp is not that expensive and can be found on the radio shack website, and probably on Best Buy's as well. Once you have the pre-amp, it ought enable the turntable to work with the Knomo speakers since the Knomo speakers have an internal amplifier. Good Luck!

Q: Can I use these on my tv? Vizio model p502ui-B1e

A: Rc33, As long as your TV has compatible audio outputs, 3.5mm, then you will be able to connect YU2's to your computer.

Q: Can these be incorporated into multi room speaker systems hooked up to a receiver or are they a stand alone product?

A: Eric, Our speaker are powered so you cannot amplify them. If your receiver has pre-outs you can connect our speakers to it. Feel free to contact us directly using the support button on our website if you want to discuss your setup a bit more, thanks.

Q: Can these speakers be used with an older Bose Acoustic Wave System CD3000?

A: Thanks for your question. There is an AUX input on the YU2s which will more than likely make it compatible with the system. If you have any other questions, reach out to us directly by clicking the support button on our website. Cheers.

Q: Are these real bamboo or plastic made to look like bamboo?

A: Hi Will, The YU2's are made with real bamboo, not a veneer or fake bamboo. Hope that helps! If you have any other questions, feel free to contact us directly using the support button on our website and we'll be happy to help.
