Kanto Audio has officially launched its long-awaited REN speaker system in the UK, exclusively available at Peter Tyson. This innovative speaker system promises to deliver an unparalleled audio experience, seamlessly integrating modern connectivity with high-fidelity sound.
Designed to fill any room with rich sound, the REN speaker system stands out with its straightforward connectivity options. It supports Bluetooth 5.3 and HDMI ARC, making it easy to connect a turntable, TV, or smartphone. In addition, USB-C and optical connections ensure that users can enjoy studio-quality high-resolution audio at 24-bit/192kHz right out of the box.

This feature enhances the enjoyment of movies and video games, creating an immersive listening experience. For those with larger rooms, Kanto offers the option to enhance sound further by adding the Kanto SUB8 subwoofer.
