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.
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.

very good , love it , thanks ,best buy!
The speakers came with a 3.5 cable jack to hook up directly into a laptop/pc. Has a USB connection as well but not sure if the sound would be better through it or not. If not, I will stick with the 3.5 as it has a smaller footprint overall. Very happy with this purchase. Won't find a better set of 2.0 desktop speakers at this price.

Better computer speakers
Very sound quality. Though, I will want to buy the separate woofer when I can afford it. Missing lower mids and bass. Very clean uppers and mids! Been into playing and recording music for two decades and these are pro level.

Great Sound in a Small Profile
I purchased the matte black pair and they look terrific. I use the USB connection to my laptop and have them on my desk at home. The sound is wonderful. It is clear with no vibration and they fit perfectly on the desk. Did not like they came with cords that are bright white. The cords look goofy connected to black speakers but everything is shows great quality.
