About Kanto

Kanto sells two things that usually come from different companies - powered speakers and the mounting hardware for screens and speakers - and the colour range is part of the pitch: desktop speakers as an object you choose to look at, not one you hide.

Came from telecommunications rather than audio, and built the company on Canadian design with offshore manufacture.

Notable models: YU series, ORA, TUK.
