## Description

Powerful 150W speakers with crystal-clear audio, custom tuning, and plug-and-play connectivity for your home theater, studio, or streaming music setup.

Review: The perfect speaker if you want it easy and high quality with no HUM. - What I was looking for was high quality audio for under £400 - the problem was I was plagued with HUM and HISS, INTERFERENCE from my computer, especially when gaming. My previous speakers (eris) would hum constantly and it would unbearable when gaming. These speakers do not hum at all. In this review I wont talk about SOUND QUALITY in detail, as this is something I think defers per person, instead Ill write about the use of these speakers, things that affect everyone no matter how tuned your ears are. I did however get a second hand D1 DAC to use with these to increase the sound quality a little, however I didnt REALLY need it, its just a love having a central little volume control ontop of my headphone dac. I'm going to give some bullet points and make some comparisons to audio stuff I have owned and used for some time: - These do not hum or hiss unless you turn them above 65% volume on the speaker itself, however this isn't needed. Above this volume they could fill a large apartment. I dont know why they dont; compared to other speakers that hummed for me (KRK, ERIS, MACKIE) Those listed speakers had hum even when using balanced TRS connections, It was not a ground loop, I checked. I dont know the reason for this, but Audioengine boasts completely in house parts; active speakers have and internal amp inside them to make them 'plug n play' so you dont need your own; my theory is that audioengine's internal in house one has been tuned perfectly to reduce the hum/hiss. Not only this, but MAYBE the fact that only one speaker has power running through it; the other is connected to the main speaker with copper gauge wire. Having only one power plug compared to one on each speaker (KRK, ERIS, MACKIE) could reduce noise and get rid of that hum. (Again no science here, just my intuition) - The build quality and packaging is support; the little velvet bags everything comes in is a nice touch. - The LED on the front is blinding and distracting to me as I use these on my PC and they are always in my vision. I bought some sticky black dots from ebay and covered it with that. - The volume knob on the front is lovely; tactile and makes a feint click noise as you turn it. The fact is turns and has no stopping point is annoying, meaning you have to use the LED to see when its full. I however dont mind as i always turn the speakers back down when im finished, a quick rotate is enough to make them quiet again. A small caveat. - The remote is a pure novelty; I dont see why you'd use it; I cant see a use. If you had your phone plugged in or whatever you cant pause, you can just lower volume, mute or put the speakers into sleep mode. Why would you do that? If you put them to sleep its because your not using them but the audio source continues on the device, as it only controls the speakers. If you think your going to get the remote, get the a5+ Wireless edition, they are about £90 more on sale and are actually useful if you want to use them wirelessly. - The usb port also seems a novelty. I dont want to charge my phone from my speakers. - They need some sound insulation on the bottom, they come with tiny little pads stuck to them, but they wont really do anything. You can get a pair of isolation pads or audioengine's own branded ones. I got the branded ones purely because they look aesthetically pleasing to me. If I had to describe these speakers in one sentence - 'Well made speakers for anyone looking to get a high quality setup easily.' Previous Audio equipment Ive owned for over 3 weeks of use: KRK rokit 5, KRK rokit 4, Eris 5, Mackie CR4, Audient id14, focusrite 2i4, Logitech g533, Logitech Z623, Audio technica at40hx, beyerdynamic DT 990 Pro Headphones My current setup: MASSDROP o2 +sdac, Seinheisser hd660s, Audioengine D1 Dac, Audioengine a5+ speakers, audioengine sound absorption pads.

Out of the box they immediately impress as they are shrouded in their own cloth bags and they look very impressive. All the cables are present to allow for a quick set up. I have placed these either side of my PC monitor and hooked them up via an Arcam rPAC using the USB in and RCA out connections . Blimey !! they are very good. Although I have not the funds nor probably the best 'audiophile' ears, I certainly appreciate the depth of sound that these produce and I would bet that these would challenge speakers at twice the price. I have used these as a hasty party set up and even just using an iphone cabled into the 3.5 jack the sound is most impressive. These will go very loud and will easily fill a room. I have recently experimented with a Sub that I had left over from a home cinema upgrade..........a bit of fun but actually these guys kick out sufficient bass and don't need anything extra. The main selling point is the simplicity as the wiring is minimal and they can be placed wherever you have the space. They are quite big for desktop speakers although the matt black finish diminishes the bulky look. The reviews say it all , these are great value for money and a quality item.

Now that I have owned these for a good period, I feel I that can give an honest and comprehensive review of these speakers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolute bargain for the price, capable of superb sound quality
*by A***R on 10 May 2014*

Lets get the negative out of the way first - I knocked 1 star off because my first set went faulty within just 15 minutes use (left hand mid/bass driver stopped working) and I had to wait 9 days for replacements because they had to go back to the UK distribution center to be tested before replacements would be issued, so not the best quality control on the planet, nor the fastest replacement. These speakers, as with all decent quality audio, need a run in period before sounding at their best (approx. 50hrs). I have run mine in for about 80 hours prior to reviewing. Plug them straight in to your headphone socket and you'll get a really good set of speakers with good clarity and a surprising bass for their size (playing Enya's "Storms in Africa" which is very heavy on the bass gave an impressive performance). And you'll get a vastly improved midrange over any of the 2.1 PC speaker options available thanks to the larger cones. I'm not plugging mine into the headphone socket though, and as such this review is more for those who want to know what these speakers are capable of as part of a higher spec setup. Firstly, I'm using a microStreamer DAC (digital to analogue converter) which gives much improved clarity over the cheap DACs built in to laptops, tablets etc. Secondly, I'm using high quality cables throughout (I'll list all the kit at the end of the review) Thirdly, I've added a Tannoy 2.10 subwoofer. Reason being that although these speakers have a very impressive bass, any speakers with a 50Hz roll off will not accurately reproduce large bass drums and deep bass guitars properly. I believe that to hear the original recording as it was intended to be heard you need a speaker setup that can produce the full range of frequencies present in the original track. The Tannoy 2.10 goes down to 24Hz and with its tight superbly controlled deep bass it's a great match for these desktop speakers (albeit somewhat overpowered at 300W RMS, I only have the sub volume set to about 20%) Lastly I'm using FLAC files which are lossless, compared to mp3s, although mp3s still sound great through this setup. I also spent the time plotting a frequency response graph using a series of sine wave test tones downloaded off the net and an SPL meter (sound pressure level). Then I used EAPO a text based parametric equaliser available free on the net that supports up to 100 channels to flatten out the frequency response as best I could (I've now got a line to within +/- 2dB from 32Hz through to 600Hz). This may sound somewhat over the top, but audibly the difference is very noticeable, it sounds awesome ! So basically, I've got a setup that in total cost approx. £1,050 and has been properly configured and run in. Is it worth the money ? Absolutely 200% YES in my opinion. I previously had a £2,500 hifi made up of very highly rated components including £600 KEF floorstanding speakers, and this is a far more detailed and engaging sound. Bass is excellent between the A5+ and the tannoy sub, very deep but still tight and well controlled. Bass heavy songs like Pendulum's "Witchcraft" and "Propane Nightmares" sound great and really shake the floor, whilst bass drums and bass guitar tracks in all songs sound very realistic and well defined. Midrange is probably the strongest point of all in these speakers, clarity is fantastic, better than any other speakers I've listened to up to around £600 in the past (and when you consider you get an amplifier thrown in too, it really makes these a bit of a bargain in my opinion). Treble is crystal clear, the triangle(?) in Madonna's "Material Girl" really sings out, but without sounding at all harsh. Soundstage is good, my speaker positioning isn't ideal as they're at the back of a large desk approx. 4ft apart so it could no doubt be better, but sitting in the centre and listing to Madness' "Return of the Los Palmas 7" is excellent, it sounds like someone's knocking together wooden blocks right next to my left ear while the saxophone is off into the distance. These sound great with everything I've thrown at them, from pop to DnB to metalcore and also classical from Holst Planets to Masterworks for Flute & Piano. If these eventually die I'd almost certainly replace them with a 3rd set, I haven't heard anything else in this price range that comes even remotely close. I did have a set of TDL floorstanding speakers and a Tangent amp in the bedroom that cost roughly the same as the Audioengine A5+, the A5+ made the previous setup sound awful, I just couldn't bear listening to them again and consigned them to the bin. As far as 2.1 systems go, although expensive compared to normal PC 2.1 systems, these paired with a good sub are on a completely different planet. I've had numerous 2.1 packages in the past and without exception they all fail miserably in the midrange because the cones on the satellites are simply too small and no amount of fiddling with the eq will overcome that.
