High-performance materials. Exceptional sound

Silk Dome Tweeters & Kevlar Drivers
YU's 1-inch tweeters are made from silk to deliver a high-frequency range that is bright and refined. Their dome shape improves sound dispersion to ensure your ears capture every sound, regardless of where you are in the room.

Automatic standby and power-up mode conserves power when you're away and continues playback when your music starts playing.

Featuring integrated Bluetooth 4.2 with Qualcomm aptX technology, YU lets you stream high-quality audio directly from any Bluetooth-enabled device. Sit back and enjoy your carefully curated playlist from anywhere in the room.

Nearfield - Upgrade your desktop setup
Take your desktop setup to the next level by connecting YU to your computer via its RCA input. To reduce vibration and improve sound staging, use YU with SP9 desktop speaker stands.
