Canadian audio brand Kanto is bringing its entire 2025 active speaker range to the High End Munich show this week, marking the first time its refreshed product family will be exhibited together in Europe.
While the line-up has been seen before, Kanto says this year’s presentation marks a new chapter, showcasing its vibrant brand identity and commitment to plug-and-play hi-fi simplicity across all living spaces—from desktop to lounge room. The company will also use the event to introduce the UKI to European audiences for the first time, following its CES reveal earlier this year.
The compact UKI loudspeaker is billed as an affordable entry point into true stereo listening. The new clamshell design offers Bluetooth 5.0 streaming, USB-C and RCA connectivity, and even a headphone socket, making it a versatile option for small-space dwellers, students, or anyone stepping into hi-fi for the first time. It will be available in four colours: black, white, cobalt, and sage.
Kanto’s desktop-focused ORA and ORA 4 models will also be on display at the show. The 50-watt bi-amplified ORA system features 3-inch paper cone woofers and ¾-inch silk dome tweeters, with Bluetooth 5.0, RCA, and USB-C inputs, along with a dedicated sub-out for seamless integration with Kanto's SUB8. First ahdn impressions from the show are that the ORA delivers impressive sonic fidelity in a compact footprint, aimed at both enthusiasts and creators working in tight spaces.
Meanwhile, the REN system headlines Kanto’s living room offering. Delivering 100 watts of total power and available in five matte finishes, REN adds HDMI ARC with CEC support to the company’s repertoire for the first time—allowing seamless control via a TV remote. With Bluetooth 5.3, USB-C and Optical inputs (supporting 24-bit/96kHz), plus analogue options and a selectable crossover sub-out, the REN is tailored for both serious music listening and movie nights.
Kanto’s Brett Smalley commented to StereoNET:
