Connect your iDevice, computer, TV, or any other audio component for great stereo sound in any room. The Audioengine A5 powered speaker system was Audioengine's flagship model and has become a best seller. The new A5+ has the same award-winning signature sound as the original A5 but includes customer-requested upgrades and features. Delivering 150-watts of peak system power, it will easily fill your room with music. Stereophile magazine honored the 5+ by including it in its "Recommended Components" list for 2013. "[It] offered outstanding bass control, transparency, and drama," reported the magazine. "This tiny system really trumped some of the larger systems out there costing thousands more," reports Pete Davey in PositiveFeedback for January-February 2012. "One friend insisted that I had a subwoofer hidden somewhere… For the price, you just can't beat it." "Dynamic, Well Designed, And Well Made""For $399 the AudioEngine 5+ powered speaker delivers more than enough music to be satisfying, even if you’re used to listening to far more expensive gear," notes Steven Stone in Playback for April 9, 2012. "Dynamic, well designed, and well made, the 5+ offers an elegant solution to the problem of choosing a high-value desktop/nearfield monitor." "The 5+ combines quality sound with an attractiveness and remote-controlled, multiple-input convenience that separates it from its competitors. Emphatically recommended," raves Hans Wetzel in his GoodSound! review for May 1, 2012. "Bass Performance Was Nothing Short of Remarkable""Bass performance was nothing short of remarkable," marvels Daniel Kumin in the March 12, 2012 issue of Sound+Vision magazine. "Perhaps the 5+’s most dramatic aural attribute, though, was its stereo imaging. In in-the-room listening the Audioengines threw out a rounded, rock-steady sound stage that hung between and extended fully to the two speakers." More Versatility Than Ever!With custom 5" Kevlar woofers, 0.75" silk dome tweeters, and hand-built cabinets, the Audioengine A5+ includes a remote control, dual audio inputs and enhanced thermal management. You can charge your iDevice via the USB power port and also add a subwoofer to the variable output. Connect Audioengine A5+ to your computer's headphone jack or pair with a USB DAC to achieve an even higher level of sound quality. The Audioengine A5+ works with any computer and there's no software to install or settings to change. "These speakers are easy to set up, easy to use, easy on the ears," says Clint DeBoer in Audioholics for February 22, 2012. "They sound great and if you put these on your workstation or desk we think you're going to be impressed with what you hear." "The A5+ speakers are light on their feet, sound subtle and boast impressive dynamics. Their sonic scale is striking for the money, happily filling our room better than similarly sized iPod docks," notes What Hi-Fi? magazine. Simple to Set Up and UseBuilt-in power amplifiers save space and eliminate the need to connect Audioengine A5+ to a stereo receiver or external power amp. Simply plug the left speaker into an AC outlet and connect the included speaker wire from the left to right speaker. All internal components of the A5+ are tuned together, providing a more efficient system requiring less power than passive speakers and amplifiers. With superior stereo separation and incredible imaging, A5+ has a clear sonic advantage over boomboxes or all-in-one systems. Small Speakers, Big BassYou won't hear any enhanced super-mega-hyper-monster boomy bass from these powered speakers. As with the original A5, the low end from the A5+ is real bass, very near to the originally-recorded music. From rap to classical to movies, you'll get tight, punchy bass with an awesome growl that will make you smile - regardless of the volume level.
"Recommended Component" 2013 - StereophileStereophile magazine honored the 5+ by including it in its "Recommended Components" list for 2013. "[It] offered outstanding bass control, transparency, and drama," reported the magazine. "This tiny system really trumped some of the larger systems out there costing thousands more. I have had friends over and could not wait to put them in the sweet spot to hear what it can do with one's music. Every time I saw the proverbial dropping of the jaws, eyes getting wider, etc. One friend insisted that I had a subwoofer hidden somewhere. The bass that comes from these speakers is tight, controlled and accurate. I typically don't like ported enclosures but it all really worked out well here." "For the price, you just can't beat it. For the sound, well, you be the judge. If you can take my word for it, this system is so synergistic it really put a new perspective on high-end audio and now how good it's gotten while not breaking the bank." - Pete Davey, PositiveFeedback, Issue 59, January-February 2012 "For $399 the AudioEngine 5+ powered speaker delivers more than enough music to be satisfying, even if you’re used to listening to far more expensive gear. Dynamic, well designed, and well made, the 5+ offers an elegant solution to the problem of choosing a high-value desktop/nearfield monitor." - Steven Stone, Playback, April 9, 2012 "Bass performance was nothing short of remarkable… delivering amply convincing bass on almost any pop or jazz material. The very lowest musical fourth or so of bass guitar/viol sacrifices a bit of heft, but the Audioengines’ ability to deliver a solid, rocking rhythm section just about intact was downright impressive." "Perhaps the 5+’s most dramatic aural attribute, though, was its stereo imaging. In in-the-room listening the Audioengines threw out a rounded, rock-steady sound stage that hung between and extended fully to the two speakers. When the speakers were used in a desktop array this was, if anything, more dramatic, placing centered soloists smack-dab “on” the computer’s monitor with ghostly believability." - Daniel Kumin, Sound+Vision, March 12, 2012 "The A5+ speakers are light on their feet, sound subtle and boast impressive dynamics. Their sonic scale is striking for the money, happily filling our room better than similarly sized iPod docks." "The sonic balance is more exciting now too, a change from the smoother sound of the old model." - What Hi-Fi? magazine "Without being hyperbolic, the 5+s sounded like altogether different, far more expensive speakers… the 5+ combines quality sound with an attractiveness and remote-controlled, multiple-input convenience that separates it from its competitors. Emphatically recommended." - Hans Wetzel, GoodSound!, May 1, 2012 "These speakers are easy to set up, easy to use, easy on the ears... They sound great and if you put these on your workstation or desk we think you're going to be impressed with what you hear." - Clint DeBoer, Audioholics, February 22, 2012
