  A revelation, January 14, 2014

  This review is from: Audioengine A2+ Premium Powered Desktop Speakers – Pair (Black) (Electronics)

  For several years I have used a Cambridge Soundworks system with my Mac. I kept reading great stories about products from this company.

  Background – I have been into high end stereo and home theater for many years, with Naim being my favorite brand for stereo (very expensive) – spending thousands is a part of that silly game, but it does train your ears to hear real differences in equipment.

  The key criteria in a speaker for me is the ability to lock onto the rhythm through the recovery and attack of the amplifier, the timbre of vocals and the detail and placement in the overall presentation of individual instruments and voices.

  I took delivery of these speakers and am shocked that $249 can deliver this level of performance. Across vocals, jazz and classical music the speakers are beyond anything i had hoped. On podcasts, voices resonate.

  Hint – play through the USB input and try and have your music files in lossless (storage is so cheap these days)

  Just stunned.

  Note – if your idea of fidelity is a boomy presentation with loudness switched onto max, don’t waste your time on these speakers. You can get that for less $$.

  Verified Purchase(What’s this?)

  This review is from: Audioengine A2+ White (Pr.) 2-way Powered Speaker System (Personal Computers)

  I use these speakers with my TV and I’ve been very happy with them. I added a subwoofer (not from Audioengine) and the sound with the entire setup is great. I’m not a huge audio freak, but I like good deep sound. I’d recommend these to anyone who wants good sound without a huge messy speaker system.

  A2+ Rocks!, November 27, 2013

  I’m an old audiophile and got these for my iMac. I can run the computer through my stereo via Audioengine A1 but don’t always want to use my heavy amp and my Kef 104.2’s for sound; sounds great but overkill and power hungry. Got the A2+ because of the USB hookup. They kick butt. Very surprise at the sound. The bass is amazing considering the size. Highs/Mids are clean as could be whether I am playing iTunes, Pandora, or gaming. Absolutely worth the money. I found tons of reviews on the A2 but nothing on the new A2+. I can only guess that with the USB input these can only only be better. Quite happy with the purchase.
