Audioengine A1 Wireless Computer Speakers - 60 W Bluetooth Desktop PC Computer Speakers - Gaming, Music and More

I have done a thorough search before buying this item and decided on the A1 among two remaining contenters, audio engine a2+ and kanto yu2... The unit arrived in perfect condition, setup is incredibly easy, the form factor is just the right size, not occupying a huge desk space, nor too small and the gray disappears and matches with my desktop.Now, the sound quality... The Bluetooth connection woked very easy and seamlessly. I have a Samsung s21 and connected it with Apt X enabled. The sound quality is way higher than I expected. I am a Deezer user and I intently switched between normal and high resolution audio and i could clearly hear the difference (while not being an audiophile) on clarity and overall tonality... When it comes to connecting to your desktop. You need to be careful about the choice of cables... The unit comes with two sets of cables, one is RCA, the other one is single connection. The latter, when connected to a PC, activates only ONE speakers, you need to use a proper stereo cable if RCA connection i not compatible with your PC or connecting via headphone jack of your laptop.... You should also understand the capacity of your sound card, I was able to increase the resolution up to 32 bit/192k Hz via settings, the Windows default is rather pathetic and this makes a huge difference. This speaker does not come with optical/digital connection port, but I believe you can get either cables enabling this or a USB to analog audio converters with a portable DAC built in a dongle format.After these, I ran these speakers non-stop for 24 hours, even though I do not fully believe in the break-in period but, I am very happy with the sound. I also installed a Boom EQ app where I can fine tune the sound quality the way I want. I do not have any crackling sounds some reviews mentioned, nor any displeasure with the bass amount or quality, it is decent enough. You also need to use them slightly turned towards you lifted via the angled stands, it is a good investment...Having said all these, if what you are looking for is a sound quality of a PC speaker that gets closer to an audiophile quality with increbible bass and have the budget for it, you need to look into Vanatoo Transparent Zero. I have a separate set up for listening music, I would buy these in a heartbeat instead of the A1, if i wanted a much better sound quality and agree on a price way higher and a unit that is clearly bigger than the A1... happy shopping and happy listening....

I initially brought this product to replace my TVs sound bar. Although these are probably geared toward connecting with a laptop or computer, these guys were pumping sound clearly and profusely with surprising low end. They will easily fill a smaller sized living room with great sound. They were even paired with a subwoofer to deliver something truly special. Now they're simply connected to my work computer. I would highly suggest these speakers and can say they sound the best at high volumes.

These are small speakers with a 3" driver and a compact cabinet. Highs are crisp and mids are really nice. There is no bass. I'm not a bass head and don't expect boosted bass on everything, but these are 3" drivers. They sound great where you need something small and they can be very loud, just have realistic expectations. If you can't run a sub and have the room and the money, I would definitely bump up to the larger size if you want a more full range option.Now for the really good stuff. There's a sub output for pairing with a sub, which is where these really come alive. I ran the sub out to an old set of 2.1 computer speakers and just used the sub. It's not a good sub at all, but it transforms these little speakers into something amazing. I can't wait to get a cleaner, better sub. The compact size on the desk with a sub on the floor and out of the way makes for a very compact full sounding option.My other favorite feature of this set is the ability to play music to them via Bluetooth while having them wired to the computer. I can sit at my desk with music streaming from my phone/tablet via Bluetooth and still have the PC audio mixed in.

I needed smallish speakers to fit under my monitor and found these. I thought they would just sound ok but I'm honestly blown away. When used with the Media Player EQ, these things sing with plenty of punch.I did run into a humming problem when I first plugged in the audio cable, then discovered the cable was picking up interference from the Govee light connection I had plugged in. I removed that (because I never use that feature with the Govee lights) and the hum disappeared. EDIT: I noticed the hum again when I turned the volume all the way up, which (again) was coming from the 3.5 audio cable. I ended up getting the Audioengine D1 DAC connected to the speakers using a 3.5 to RCA cable. The hum is now completely gone.Also, I don't use the bluetooth connection because all bluetooth connections occasionally drop/give headaches. I always use a wired connection to avoid all of those issues.I'm pleasantly surprised and very happy I went with my gut on this purchase. The sub should be delivered by tomorrow and I hope it is just as rewarding.Edit 2: The highs seem to be smoother and more pleasant now. They sounded very bright (almost harsh) in the beginning, and I used eq to reduce the effect. Now they’re sounding REALLY good! I guess speaker break-in is a real thing!

I've never heard a more perfect and loud sound in my life. Best investment ever!!!!
