A Sight for Sore Eyes and Ears
The HDP6 is one of those rare music systems whose good looks actually help it sound even better. The sealed hand-crafted wood veneer enclosures absorb sound waves and reduce echo and reverberation for a more natural and balanced sound, without harsh or artificial tones. They're tough too. Our real wood veneer can withstand years of use and abuse, and it's less prone to scratches and dents than synthetic materials. Plus, we source our wood veneer from responsibly managed forests, harvested in a sustainable and environmentally friendly way. Sure, they'll look great on your shelf, but the HDP6 is much more than just a pretty face.
Built by Hand with Your Music in Mind
Any music system built using other people's parts, will sound like someone else's music system. At Audioengine, we don't rely on whatever's on the shelf or lying around the factory. We custom design, build, and hand tune everything that goes into our music systems. What we don't build ourselves, we have built to our exact specifications.
Total control over every step of the process. It's what's helped us create high-end audio systems without the high-end price tag for over 15 years.

The bottom line in nerd speak: Audioengine uses audiophile-quality, ferrofluid-cooled silk dome tweeters. Silk tweeters hold up well under high power and the edge-driven design gives a very smooth response. The woofers are aramid fiber woven glass composite with rubber surrounds. The HDP6 woofers are housed in cast aluminum frames which provide high rigidity and increased heat dispersion.
The bottom line for the rest of us: They look great, sound even better, and are built to last a long, long time.

At Audioengine, we believe nothing should get in between your new HDP6 Passive Speakers and your stereo AV receiver, integrated amplifier, or tube amp. That includes the setup. Just a simple connection between speakers and amp and you're ready to rock.

Questions & answers about the HDP6 Passive Speakers
1. Turn Off and Unplug:
- Make sure your system is turned off and unplugged.
2. Dust the Surfaces:
- Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust.
- For hard-to-reach places, use a soft brush or a can of compressed air.
3. Wipe Down the Exterior:
- We do not recommend using any solvents
- If cleaning off stains or build-up is necessary, we recommend doing so with a very small amount of mild cleaning solution applied only to the affected area, followed by quickly wiping the area dry completely.
- Any scoured pads or objects like a 'magic eraser' too easily run the risk of removing sealers and top coats of the painted finish that can leave a clearly visible change in the uniformity of the paint/finish
4. Clean the Speaker Grills:
- The speaker grills can be gently cleaned with a vacuum, preferably using a soft bush attachment.
- A lint roller can also be used.
5. Clean Buttons and Knobs:
- A dry cloth is recommend for cleaning any knobs, buttons or other surfaces
- Be careful not to let water get into any gaps.
6. Clean Ports and Connections:
- Use compressed air to blow out dust from ports and connections.
7. Let Everything Dry:
- Make sure everything is completely dry before plugging back in and turning on.
8. Regular Cleaning:
- Dust your system regularly to keep it in good shape.
By following these steps, you can keep your Audioengine system clean and working well.
The dimensions of each speaker is 11.75"H x 7.2"W x 9.4"D
Absolutely! You can connect any Audioengine speaker with an analog output to any Sonos product that has the Line-In feature. You can also connect any Audioengine passive speakers into an existing Sonos system using the Sonos Amp.
The lower the speaker impedance, the more current (amperage) your amp or receiver will need to provide, but most separate power amps have more than a sufficient power supply and power amp sections for driving 4 ohm loads with ease. In fact many amps will perform better with a 4 ohm load as opposed to 8 ohms if their design is robust enough to supply the extra current. A quick web search will bring up more information on this subject.
The HDP6 is a very efficient speaker and designed to work well with digital hybrid amplifiers (Class-D, Class-T, etc.) as well as most stereo receivers, integrated amps, tube amplifiers, and whole-house music systems such as the Sonos ZonePlayer 120. The HDP6s have an amplifier power rating of 10-150W per channel, so any amplifier that outputs that power should work great!
