Know before you buy
These speakers were specifically engineered to pair with the Advance Paris MyConnect 60 amplifier. Using this combination ensures the best tonal balance and acoustic performance intended by the manufacturer.
No, the KC-400 Evo is designed as a freestanding bookshelf speaker. Due to its weight of 7.4 kg and classic box enclosure, it is best placed on a sturdy shelf, dedicated speaker stands, or a stable piece of furniture.
Their compact 2-way design makes them highly versatile for smaller to medium-sized spaces. They perform well in home offices, studios, or living rooms where high-fidelity sound is desired without the footprint of large floor-standing speakers.
Each speaker measures 195 mm in width, 325 mm in depth, and 425 mm in height. You should ensure your shelf or stand can accommodate these dimensions and support the 7.4 kg weight per unit.
The composite material is chosen for its rigidity and acoustic properties. It provides a solid, inert housing that minimizes unwanted vibrations, allowing the drivers to produce cleaner, more accurate sound.
