Kanto REN 200W Powered Bookshelf Speakers with HDMI ARC, USB-C, and Bluetooth 5.3 (Pair)

Combining the simplicity of a soundbar with the accuracy of a DSP-controlled stereo system, REN seamlessly integrates with any modern TV via HDMI ARC, delivering a home theater-like experience in one streamlined package. REN tackles the frustration of quiet dialogue and overwhelming sound effects with two sound modes that boost vocals and reduce low frequencies for nighttime viewing. When it’s time to add a subwoofer, REN automatically filters sub-bass from its 5.25” aluminum woofers, letting them focus on midrange frequencies with minimal distortion. REN offers versatility beyond the living room with Bluetooth 5.3 for smart home devices, optical for WiFi network streamers, USB-C for desktop use, and analog inputs for everything else.

Feature:

• SEAMLESS TV INTEGRATION – Featuring HDMI ARC with CEC, REN offers the same kind of seamless TV integration that an AV receiver or soundbar provides. REN automatically wakes when the TV is turned on and can be controlled with the TV remote. No need for multiple remotes or bulky gear to get premium sound from your TV.
• TRUE STEREO SOUND – Soundbars rarely extend past your TV and rely on digital processing to simulate a wider soundstage. You can place REN as far apart as you like giving you a true wide soundstage with pinpoint precision of where the action is happening on the screen. Get real stereo sound and leave the gimmicks behind.
• VOCAL BOOST AND NIGHT MODE – REN is DSP-controlled, allowing for custom sound modes like Vocal Boost and Night Mode to improve quiet dialogue and soften loud sound effects when watching movies at night. Never miss a line of dialogue or accidentally wake up the neighbors again.
• BASS MANAGEMENT – When a subwoofer is plugged into REN’s sub output, REN automatically sends all frequencies below 80 Hz to the sub letting the speakers focus on what they do best while reducing distortion at higher volume levels. Expand your system when you’re ready and get even better sound.
• STREAMING SUPPORT – The USB charge port on the rear of REN can power a network streamer or smart home device without additional cabling. REN can be toggled to stay awake continuously for on-the-fly casting with no delays. Get the highest quality streaming experience from the devices that do it best.
• PLUG ‘N PLAY – REN has nearly every connection option available from USB-C for desktop use, Bluetooth 5.3 for mobile devices, optical for digital media, to RCA and AUX for analog gear. The connectivity and versatility to work with any piece of gear, in any scenario, past, present, or future.

• FULL CONTROL – REN’s remote can swap the left and right channels, disable auto power-down, dim the front LED, mute an attached sub, control USB or Bluetooth playback, and adjust tone to dial in bass and treble. Little features that make big differences in everyday usability.
