A1 Home Music System w/ Bluetooth aptX

Talk about versatile. The Audioengine A1 Home Music System delivers high-quality sound from your phone, tablet, computer, or even your turntable or tape deck, without breaking the bank. Choose between wired or wireless connections—either way, it's crystal clear. With Bluetooth aptX, you'll get CD-like quality and all you give up are the cords. And the A1 comes with a subwoofer output that pairs perfectly with our S6 Powered Subwoofer.

Pro Tip For optimal sound from the A1 speakers, use a Bluetooth connection. This method bypasses the lower quality audio parts in your device, letting the built-in DAC in the A1 improve the sound quality.

    The A1 is a Beast, but it's Not Frankenstein's Monster

    In order to get just the right sound from our music systems, they need to be built from just the right components. And in order to do that, we custom design and build everything that goes into our music systems. We don’t rely on whatever’s on the shelf or lying around the factory. This means the A1 features aramid fiber woofers, silk tweeters, and built-in power amps wrapped in precision-tuned, hand-crafted cabinets. Just like our award-winning A2+ HOME Music System.

    They’re everything you’d expect from a high-quality music system, without the high price.
