4 essential accessories for your speakers

Achieving a top-notch listening experience doesn't just depend on sound quality, build quality or versatility in connections. The accessories that come with our speakers, and those that can be purchased separately, also play a key role.

In today's post, we'll explain the 4 essential accessories for your VULKKANO active speakers . Take note!

Speaker stands

Stands , whether floor or desktop, depending on the size of the speaker, are an essential accessory when purchasing active speakers.

In the case of VULKKANO, we have the S4 and S60 stands. The former are designed for use on desks or to be placed on a piece of furniture , in order to stabilize the position of the speakers and raise them to ear level. They are perfect for setups with a computer, turntables or CD players, among other uses. They are made of a non-slip material and are recommended for compact-sized speakers, such as the A4 or A4 ARC .

The S60 are floor stands, ideal for models such as the A5 ARC or the A6 ARC , designed to make the most of the home cinema and high fidelity experience. Column-shaped and of medium height, they are designed to be placed next to the television , aligned with it or in a slightly more advanced position. The objective is clear: to optimize sound performance and enjoy distraction-free audio from the comfort of your sofa.

If you prefer to use the S60 to create a small HiFi system, you can place it in a corner next to your turntable or other devices, or connect your smartphone via Bluetooth and immerse yourself in your favorite songs.

Dustproof grilles

Dust guards are another essential accessory for your speakers. Their main function is to protect the front components — such as the woofer and tweeter — and other elements from the entry of dust or particles, preventing their deterioration. In addition, the guards prevent possible damage caused by accidental knocks or falls, protecting the integrity of the drivers.

In terms of aesthetics, the grilles not only provide a cleaner and tidier appearance to the whole, but they also allow you to combine different colours, so you can choose the one that best suits your preferences.

Remote control

Purchasing an additional remote control to control your speakers is a great idea, especially if you use them in different rooms or locations. With it, you can manage all the speaker's functions : from turning the device on and off, to controlling inputs and outputs, adjusting the volume, changing tracks or selecting between different sound modes, among other options.

Additional cables

Depending on the needs of the room where you are going to place your speakers, you may need cables of different lengths , not only to interconnect both channels, but also to integrate the speakers with other devices, such as the television. Some of the most useful cables include:

• Interconnect Cable: Our speakers come with a 1.5m long cable. If you decide to purchase an additional cable, it is important to consider the distance between the speakers to avoid excessive strain or, conversely, separating them too far, which could affect the listening experience.

• HDMI Cable: If you're going to use your speakers with your TV, it's important to have a good quality HDMI cable. While there are a variety of options on the market, it's best to evaluate your needs and consider aspects such as the cable's version, compatibility, length, and certification.

• Optical Cable: Continuing with the connection to the TV, although it is most advisable to use the HDMI ARC connection , the optical connection is another interesting alternative to improve the output audio of the TV. When choosing an optical cable, you can look at features such as the type of connector, flexibility, manufacturing quality and, again, the length of the cable.

Other accessories

So far we have discussed the basic accessories for your powered speakers . However, there are some very attractive add-ons that will allow you to make the most of the use of your speakers.

• Audio Streamer: Audio streamers are an essential accessory for VULKKANO speakers. Models such as the Arylic S10 or Arylic S50 Pro+ allow you to stream audio wirelessly via WiFi, AirPlay or Spotify Connect , putting all your favourite songs at your fingertips. Plus, it’s possible to design a multi-room music system to play music in all rooms at once and manage everything that happens on the streamer via compatible apps.

• External DAC: Using an external DAC with active speakers is useful for improving sound quality and minimising interference . The DAC converts digital audio signals into analogue signals to play through your speakers, resulting in a clearer, more detailed sound.

In short, having the right accessories can transform your listening experience and maximise the performance of your VULKKANO active speakers. From stands that optimise speaker placement to audio streamers that make it easy to access your favourite songs, each accessory plays a crucial role in creating an exceptional sound environment.
