Description

The award-winning Audioengine A2+ Powered Speaker is a perfect example of the extension of this mission. With music streaming services and digital music players becoming the centre of the modern music system, consumers have had to accept a loss of the premium components resulting in the loss of sound quality. With a built-in digital-to-analog converter (DAC), the Audioengine 2+ allows you to send high-quality digital audio direct from your computer or other listening device’s USB or AUX port. We’ve also added a variable RCA output to connect a subwoofer and you can even go wireless with the optional Audioengine B1 Bluetooth adapter. The Audioengine 2+ is a great introduction to high-quality audio and the perfect upgrade for your computer, turntable, TV, or favorite streaming device.

    • Very Decent, but I'm not blown away for price I paid; requires good stands for directional adjustment for up-close use.
PROS: Very versatile; high quality construction; multiple quality inputs w/ variable output for sub or additional devices; volume control via builtin preamp or external preamp/computer/source; threaded mount adapter for use with adjustable stands; excellent, for the size and cost, at high volumes. CONS: I was not blown away based on the glowing reviews and listings around the web as a top choice for the money I paid ($250; now $200 as of this writing; it figures); but they still have very positive aspects worth considering; all cables included, however, the satellite speaker wire was way too short for me and I replaced it. No big deal. -- If you watch the prices and can get these for under $200, they seem a much better value for the output (to me). That said, I think MOST people will think these are the bee's knees if not compared to anything else above $225. If you are adding them to any laptop or all in one (iMac, etc.), you will be BLOWN AWAY by the vast improvement. Biggest issue: These speakers are VERY dependent on direction if you sit close or intend to use them with a computer. Make sure they are situated so they point DIRECTLY at your ears -- or are at least EQUALLY NOT pointed at your ears, else you will definitely observe imbalance and lack of midrange impact left to right. If you move about your desk/office space frequently, and want these for music, do yourself a favor and place them as far apart as you can manage; when you leave the "sweet spot", the quality drops rapidly. I have six LCD displays on three vertical VESA mounts, and added articulating VESA boom arms and made a simple adapter from painted wood to use the thoughtfully included ¼" tripod/camera mount on the bottom of the speaker to VESA 100 mounting plate. Now I am able to rapidly adjust direction/pitch/angle of each speaker for upright computer tasks, or laid-back Netflix or fill-the-room-with-sound while I work. Most of you will not go through this, but consider an inexpensive pair of adjustable speaker stands or camera tripods/stand (tabletop are very cheap) to both elevate and adjust angle/pitch for your needs. You could also use very inexpensive threaded wall mounts intended for surround satellite speakers. The AudioEngine speaker stand accessory option *might* work for a lot of you, but all it does is adjust the pitch to try to get the sound up to your ears. If you're tall or short, it will miss. They are otherwise quite warm sounding, good midrange and highs with no appreciable distortion at high volume when playing lossless audio. They do start to distort playing heavily or badly compressed audio (MP3, AAC, etc, under 160kb). Excellent for voice, such as podcasts or Skype, FaceTime, etc. These will get VERY LOUD; louder than any neighbors will appreciate. If you are looking for more bass for games or dance/trance/metal, either opt for the 4" version, or add a good subwoofer. If you intend to watch a lot of movies, these are a good addition to a 3.1/5.1/7.1 output, paired with a good center soundbar or speaker. I am using the output to a second preamp to subwoofer and an extra set of 2x2 1" tweeters for a richer "surround" experience for music and movies. If I am doing reference work, I rely only on the A2+, and am reasonably happy. I would probably like the 4" version better, but did not want the larger enclosures or expense. I very much appreciate the multiple (3x) inputs and outputs (1x RCA), the primary reason (after sound quality reviews) for choosing this item. Many people are extremely upset by the volume knob being on the back; however, for my purposes, the input/output volume is always controlled by computer or preamp or AirPortExpress WiFi input, so I set it a notch shy of full and never have to touch it. I wish they had covers for the rear to hide ugly connections for an open-back, front-facing desk installation. Recommend 90º right angle banana plug adapters. Power adapter is an inline brick, which, again, for most people is not a big deal; this keeps the heat of a power transformer outside the speaker enclosure, which is fine by me. The power input plug even has a lock button to prevent accidental disconnection; a very nice touch reflective of the price you are paying. The length from the brick to the enclosure could stand to be 2-3 feet longer, but I'm an outlier with equipment placement. Preamp enclosure gets quite warm to hot on the back plate; should not be an issue for most people, but they will add to the heat of a small room. ... show more

    • GOOD THINGS COME IN SMALL PACKAGES
Size: Bluetooth - Wireless Color: Red
My M.O. when purchasing any speaker products is to #1. Read all available material with regards to reviews on the product in question ( CNET, PC Magazine, Hi-Fi reviews etc. ). I don't bother reading reviews from outlets that are selling the product in question as they tend to be biased. #2 Look up unboxing and review videos on Youtube and check that the unboxing/reviews from the latest videos. No sense at looking at reviews that are 10 years old or even 2 years old. The latest, the better. #3 Read customer reviews. I like reading the 1 star ratings first. When people complain of distortion or crackling from their speakers, and no one written review or Youtube reviewer make no mention, that tells me the consumer got a bad product and needs to send them back. Then, I scan the 2-5 star reviews. The low ratings complain just not loud enough. They should have purchased the Audioengine 5+ if they want to constantly listen at loud levels. The 5 star ratings usually come from people knowing what to expect, but still being totally surprised by their product. My review is on my Audioengine A2+ wireless bluetooth desktop monitor speakers. In fairness, I am 65 years old and my musical tastes are from the 50's mono ( Doo-Wop, Elvis, Phil Spector...), the 60's ( British Invasion bands, Motown, American bands, Beach Boys, Mamas and the Papas, Lovin Spoonful, Tommy James, Buffalo Springfield, CCR, The Doors, Dylan...), the 70's ( Santana, Bowie, Zeppelin, Chicago, Costello, Elton, Eagles, ELO, America, James Taylor, Carol King, Jim Croce, Fleetwood Mac, Springsteen...) and just for good measure, Glenn Miller Orchestra. Was not much into the 80's and beyond, with the exception of Coldplay. I state this because of the musical change in audio. Todays music is bass and kick heavy. Now, for the music I listen to, these speakers are awesome!! All the music I listen to, whether streaming or cd's, sound great on these speakers. The full audio spectrum is present as intended back in the day when they were recorded. Drums, bass, guitars, horns, vocals, harmonies...From the pleasantries of Doo-Wop to the thrashing rhythms of Led Zeppelin, the audio spectrum is present and accounted for. As for the A2+ themselves, no crackling or distortion, even when I blast them. These speakers can handle the load. The manual sez to wait 50 to 60 hours to " break-in " the speakers for critical hearing.They sound great now after 5 hour usage, so I can't wait till I hit the 50-60 hour break-in point. Yah, the volume control is on the back of the left speaker, but whatever the source I am using, I can control the volume from there. And that leads me to the plethora of sources these speakers can input. RCA input means I can connect my cd player, 3.5mm inputs means I can plug in my iPod, USB-C inputs means I can connect my iMac computer, and finally Blue-Tooth connectivity means I can source my iPad or Samsung Galaxy A51G 5G phone, and stream my musical lists from AMAZON MUSIC since I am a Prime Member. I tested the audio using the 3.5mm output from my Samsung Galaxy and iPad vs using Bluetooth, and I could not hear the difference. Both methods sounded great. So, consequently, I hookup my iPod and stream my iPad and phone. People, for my musical genre, these speakers are great, no complaints here. However, being the completest that I am, plus I have $100 Amazon gift certificate, I will more than likely pickup the Audioengine S8. I like the fact that the S8's have adjustable cross-over points and phase control to balance the A2's with the S8. If you are in to todays music ( hip-hop, rap, R&B...) its all about the bass and kick, so the S8's would come in handy. I want 'em cuz it couldn't hurt!! I can finally use my Xmas Amazon gift card and take $100 bucks off the price. My mind is blown with these speakers. Which brings me to the old adage, " GOOD THINGS COME IN SMALL PACKAGES ".... ... show more

    • Got these to replace a dead Bose Companion 5 speaker system - can't believe the amazing quality, better than Bose and cheaper!
Size: Wired Color: White
Wat -_- My few years old Bose Companion 5 system recently passed on to the land of dead electric pixies, so I was faced with finding a replacement. Every review I read, every comparison article, and every forum discussion ended with these Audioengine A2+ speakers being the very best set of desktop speakers. My requirements were great sound quality for music at higher volumes (as I constantly have music playing while at my workbench), as well as clear audio across a large frequency range for gaming. This checked both those boxes, a few times. I can't say how much I appreciate the beautiful sound quality produced by these speakers, especially since they sound better than my old Bose speaker system and for $150 less! ... show more

I own a pair of these speakers for my record player and loved them so when it came time to get a second pair for my studio I knew what I wanted. I’m thrilled there’s a Bluetooth option. It makes all the difference in a studio setting. My only complaint is that the wires are black. I half expected a white product to come with white wires but oh well. I’m working on cable management soon and will try to come up with something to hide them and cover the exposed parts with a white tape of some kind. ... show more
