Audioengine A5 150W Powered Home Music Speaker System for Studios, Home Theaters, Bookshelves, Gaming

The Audioengine A5 Wireless Home Theater Bookshelf Speakers are a stellar product that I wholeheartedly recommend. Whether you're an audiophile, a movie buff, or just someone who appreciates great sound, these speakers will not disappoint. They combine top-tier audio performance with a sleek design and user-friendly features, making them a standout in their category. If there is a con, the on/off switch is located on the back of the speaker.

A5+ et S8 l’investissement ultime 2.1 pour mon setup ! Le son est incroyable, précis (je redécouvre certains morceaux), puissant et couvre un spectre très large de fréquences. Quel pied de jouer en HDR avec un son percutant ! Le seul bémol, le bouton de volume un peu « ship » qui manque de précision. La télécommande est quant à elle bien finie et précise.

Verpackung, wie bereits bei der ersten Generation, der A2, perfekt. Die Lautsprecher und in diesem Fall die edle Fernbedienung aus einem Stück Aluminium, sind standardmäßig in einem Stoffbeutel einzeln verpackt. Die A5 plus BT ist ein genialer aktiver Lautsprecher für kleinere Räume bis max. 12qm ( evtl. auch größer) um den PC, das Handy und auch den ein oder anderen Plattenspieler aufdrehen zu können. Die mitgelieferten Kabel sind absolut ausreichend und empfehlenswert, sodaß einer genussvollen Klangwiedergabe nichts entgegen steht.

Sound is such a subjective matter so please bear that in mind in reading my review. See if you think what I like and listen to might concur with your own personal tastes. Background. I own a high end stereo system probaly costing $30K that I never use. Also a Bose 5.1 surround sound system for the TV and DVD's. And for my 2nd computer a Klipsch THX 2.1 system. Also a Klipsch player for an iPod. Of couse they all have their unique sounds - well the expensive stereo system has no sound as of now as I felt the speakers (very, very large KEF's) were not sounding right and even after a sound engineer told me they were fine my ear said "No" because I knew how they could sound from a class A amp - so I've listened to no quality music system these last few years. I don't class the Bose system as suitable for serious music listening, but they do OK for movies. Oh, and my choice for headphones are 2 pairs of Sennheiser. So given that background lets get to the business. In my opinion, and for my taste, these Audioengine A5+ speakers + S8 woofer are remarkable. I would describe the sound a neutral (hard to find these days). That does not mean there is no bass but its only there when it should be and then its tight and does not sound like its being played through a pillow. This is the kind of sound that is not tiring and can be listened to for hours on end. When I first connected the Audioengine system up, by mistake, I did not connect the woofer. Even without it the A5+ speakers sound good, really good, but adding the woofer does make a difference for sure, and I think if you are after quality sound it is needed. Of course it can be added later as funds allow because just the A5+'s are good on their own. For a low priced system the Klipsch system replaced a pair of Bose (no woofer) on my 2nd computer and were noticable cleaner sounding with better bass because of their woofer, than the pair of Bose with no woofer. For a low priced system I could certainly live with the Klipsch. But my listening habbits have changed over 40 years and I now spend many hours a day working in front of a computer at home. That's the only time I get to listen to music - as well as in the car. I hadn't heard good sound for so long I decided to try the Audioengine system for the computer but was really blown away by how good it was. I didn't really trust the many good reviews I'd seen. The stereo image is so good with the A5+'s they create a very wide sound stage that seems to emanate slighting above and between the 2 speakers. I could hear singers taking a breath and new sounds on a violin that the bow made as it was pulled across the strings, that had not been there before. Bear in mind I am feeding only lossless MP3 files played out of iTunes - not vinyl tracks played on my Linn LP12 turntable. Are they perfect - no that's not possible for just over $700 (I am adding the DAC and stands now so will be into the system for close to $1,000) but in terms of the sound quality at this price they are quite remarkable. Beautifully packaged even the UPS driver who bounced the box down his truck steps could not hurt them as they sit a couple of inches inside their box surrounded by foam packaging. They are heavy and look like a quality product that the manufacturer has been proud to produce. Like all good speaker systems they sound better loud as you can feel the bass. It's tempting to set the woofer volume too high but playing the system loud then over cooks the bass and it looses something. The music is not balanced. I also had a little recording business in my youth so became very critical on how sound was mixed. What would be nice is a low volume setting on the remote that boosts the bass when playing at low volume. The woofer has a Phase control so the woofer cone can sync with the speaker cones to improve bass sound. Also a Crossover knob to set where in the frequency range the woofer comes in - just a matter of setting where you like it. And then a Volume control. Again I say don't be tempted to set this too high. I would set it where it sounds right then turn down just a hair. If you play at really high volume then it probably needs setting even lower. After 50 hours of burning in they can only improve. I wish I had gotten better with age! So yea I like em very much. One of my better buying choices.

Una calidad tanto de sonido como en los materiales de construcción. Genial en diseño, con fundas cada altavoz por si tienes que transportarlos. Perfecto la conexión de jack 3.5mm tan común en dispositivos electrónicos del día a día.
