Wired Setup for True Audiophiles
Designed to preserve the integrity of every sound, the wired A5+ ensures minimal signal loss, providing the purest listening experience.

A wireless version is available, but the direct connection remains the top choice for audiophiles looking for maximum performance.
What makes the A5+ Wireless a better choice for wireless streaming?
