REVIEW – I’ve said it before that one of the more fun pleasures in reviewing products is finding that true bargain—something that is way better than the price would indicate. This time around, it’s the Audioengine A1 Home Music System. Along with the Tribit Stormbox micro speaker, the A1 speaker could be another bargain of the year. […]

A2+ Wireless - Popular Mechanics

The A5+ Wireless Speakers are, of course, a little larger than normal computer speakers because they pack 5” woofers with aramid fiber cones and ¾” silk-dome tweeters, but the big sound makes them worth the space they occupy.

Audioengine A5+ Wireless Review: Phandroid

The A5+ Wireless Speakers go loud! It’s easy to fill a medium-sized room with such loud sound you can’t yell over it. Distortion is basically nonexistent, too. Highs are sharp and accurate but never grating, and mids are full and powerful. It’s really a lovely sound signature and a breath of fresh air when every other speaker turns the treble up to 11 and the bass gets muddy from boosting.

Audioengine A2+ Wireless Review: Twittering Machines

Designing and producing a sub-$300/pair speaker and keeping it in production, with upgrades, for more than a decade is not very common in the land of the audiophile. At least in my experience. There are many reasons why this shouldn’t work, but Audioengine makes it work. The A2+ Wireless Speakers are little treasures of sound that offer more than you’d expect given their price and size. Did I mention they’re cute?

Audioengine A2+ Wireless Review: Mac Sources

I'm totally sold on the A2+. At this ridiculously low price point, there's absolutely no reason why they shouldn't be sitting at every music lover's desktop, or in a whole lot of dorm rooms across the country. They acquitted themselves so very nicely in a relatively large room—it only reasons to think that they'd really sing and provide a seriously satisfying listening experience in a much more typically sized environment.

Audioengine A2+ Wireless Review: Resonance Reviews

The A2+’s sound signature is incredibly well-balanced. It has a sparkly and extended treble, a well-toned, fairly neutral, midrange that sits just behind the treble, and a distinct and articulate bass that sits behind the midrange. This forms an overall cohesive sound that marks the A2+ as a true member of the AudioEngine lineup.

Audioengine A2+ Wireless Review: Gear Patrol

Audioengine’s A2+ Wireless is a fantastic entry-level speaker system for anybody who doesn’t want to spend more than $300. The sound is crisp and accurate. It can connect to a turntable, desktop or laptop; or you can use it as a glorified Bluetooth speaker, just with way better stereo separation.

Audioengine A2+ Wireless Review: Home Theater HiFi

You'll be pleasantly surprised at the quality of these little speakers. The full, deep bass sounded really good, even with classical organ music or percussion on some rock music. The highs give a realistic account of whatever music is playing.

  "The Audioengine HD6 powered loudspeaker ($749/pair), which features both analog (phono) and digital inputs (DAC) and (to my ears) is a genuine high-end audiophile product. These were coupled to a U-turn Orbit Special turntable ($529, w/cartridge). I am old and can remember the day when you had to spend at least $5K to get […]
