Supporting your digital lifestyle

Introduction

Thank you for choosing YARO2, designed by Kanto in Canada. YARO2 outputs 35W RMS per 

channel into 4 Ohm speakers, for remarkably bold and clean sound. Excellent sensitivity and 

frequency response provide deep thumping lows and clear, scintillating highs. YARO2 is an 

amazingly flexible audio system that can accept three input sources and connect to a subwoofer 

for enhanced low frequency response. Additionally, it is equipped with a high-quality USB DAC 

for digital connection to your computer. YARO2 operates on a multi-voltage auto-switching 

power source from 110 V to 240 V and can be used worldwide.
We recommend you read all instructions carefully before using the system and keep them for 

future reference. Kanto cannot be liable for damage or injury caused by incorrect setup or use of 

this product.
This system was carefully tested and inspected during production, and before packaging and 

shipping. After unpacking, please check for any damage. It is rare that a unit is damaged 

during shipping, but if this happens contact your retailer immediately. You can also call Kanto 

directly at 1-888-848-2643 or email [email protected].
