FAQs
Do the Kanto REN speakers require a separate amplifier?
No, the Kanto REN speakers are powered speakers, meaning they have a built-in amplifier and do not require an external one.
Can I connect a subwoofer to these speakers?
The Kanto REN speakers do not have a dedicated subwoofer output. For deeper bass, consider placing the speakers optimally or using a powered subwoofer connected via your TV's audio output if available.
How do I put the speakers into Bluetooth pairing mode?
Press and hold the Bluetooth button on the remote control or the speaker's input selector until the LED indicator flashes, indicating it is in pairing mode.
What is the function of the Night Mode?
Night Mode reduces the dynamic range of the audio, making loud sounds quieter and quiet sounds slightly louder, allowing for clear listening at low volumes without disturbing others.
Is the remote control rechargeable?
The remote control is powered by a standard coin cell battery (e.g., CR2032), which is not rechargeable.
What is the difference between HDMI ARC and e-ARC?
HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) allows audio to be sent from the TV back to the speakers. e-ARC is an enhanced version that supports higher bandwidth, allowing for more advanced audio formats like Dolby Atmos. The Kanto REN speakers support HDMI ARC.
Can I use these speakers for computer audio?
Yes, you can connect them to a computer via Bluetooth, the 3.5mm AUX input, or RCA inputs for high-quality computer audio.
Troubleshooting
No sound from speakers
Ensure speakers are powered on and connected to the audio source. Check that the correct input is selected on the speakers and that the volume is turned up. Verify speaker wire connections between left and right speakers.
HDMI ARC not working
Confirm that your TV has an HDMI ARC port and that the feature is enabled in the TV's audio settings. Ensure you are using a High-Speed HDMI cable. Try a different HDMI port on your TV if available.
Bluetooth connection issues
Make sure the speakers are in Bluetooth pairing mode. Turn off Bluetooth on other nearby devices to avoid interference. Restart both the speakers and your Bluetooth device, then attempt to pair again.
Humming or buzzing sound
Check all cable connections for looseness. Try plugging the speakers into a different power outlet, preferably on a separate circuit. Ensure audio cables are not running parallel to power cords.
Vocal Boost or Night Mode not effective
These modes are subtle enhancements. Ensure the overall volume is at an appropriate level to notice the difference. Experiment with different source materials.
