CES, Las Vegas, January 11th 2024: The new ORA4, from Canadian speaker manufacturer Kanto Audio, builds upon the success of their recently launched ORA Desktop Speakers.
The Kanto Audio ORA4 features Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity, Analogue Line-in, and a USB-C input that supports audio up to 24-bit/96kHz. The USB Type-C port allows users to connect a host of audio sources to the ORA4 including iPhone 15, Android devices, Digital Audio Players, PC, Mac, and more.
A powerful desktop speaker — ideal for listening to music, gaming, or for use as a home or remote recording studio monitor — the new ORA4 features separate Class D amplifiers for the woofers/tweeters, delivering a dynamic audio presentation with a smooth, accurate frequency response.
The Kanto Audio ORA4 also includes a subwoofer output, with a built-in automatic crossover at 80 Hz that high-passes the speakers and low-passes the sub-out, enabling seamless integration with a powered subwoofer — such as the Kanto Audio SUB8.
Each ORA4 speaker employs separate amplifiers for both woofers and tweeters, ensuring an accurate frequency response during playback. Power output per tweeter is 12W, and per woofer 23W, for a combined bi-amplified power output of 70W.
With the ORA4, Kanto Audio has engineered a high-performance compact speaker perfect for desktop use which — no matter the source — delivers clear highs, detailed midrange, and an impressively powerful bass.
Kanto Audio ORA 4 Desktop Speaker system will be available from April, priced £349 / $399.
