Expert review by : What Hi-Fi? (whathifi.com)
Audioengine A5+ review
Great desktop sound from these upgraded powered speakers
Stereo and 3.5mm input ; remote control ; tight, well-marshalled bass ; good sonic detail
No iPod dock
A timely upgrade has made the A5+ speakers slightly bigger, noticeably better and far more flexible than the originals

Audioengine A5 review
Most of the MP3 speakers that flood the Stuff office on a daily basis don't live and breathe hi-fi – they exist for convenience and music snacking. This is, of course, fine for many people, but now a few systems are appearing that could yet convince...

Audioengine A5+ wireless speakers review
As with any wireless take on a great set of speakers, the Bluetooth-connected variant of Audioengine's A5+ speakers had us very excited when they arrived in our A/V testing room. How do they compete with the superb original model, and could the...
Superb treble definition ; Punchy bass ; Wide stereo image ; Excellent wireless performance
No input switch between Bluetooth and RCA
The Audioengine A5+ Wireless bring vibrant and lifelike sound to small and medium sized rooms, adding the convenience of wireless connection while maintaining the same outstanding audio performance we’ve loved for over a decade.

Audioengine A5+ Wireless
Audioengine's A5+ Wireless speakers deliver a stellar sonic experience aimed at audiophiles with 24-bit upsampling to ensure high-quality Bluetooth audio.
Excellent audio performance with solid bass depth and clarity throughout the frequency range. High-quality Bluetooth streaming with 24-bit upsampling. Wired connectivity options. Can be used with a subwoofer.
No source knob. Limited remote control.
If you want a good-looking, high quality all-in-one wireless speaker system, perhaps with a companion app or voice assistance, you have strong options in the Google Home Max, the Sonos One, and the Urbanears Baggen. But not everyone wants a "smart"...

Audioengine A5+ review: Audioengine A5+
Audioengine A5+
The ; powered speakers deliver phenomenal sound and offer simple, attractive styling. They feature two audio inputs and an integrated USB port for charging source devices (phones, iPods). The two speakers can be placed as far apart as needed to...
The speakers aren't cheap, and many will find them to be too large and bulky compared with standard PC speakers. The AC power port found in the earlier model is no longer present, and you can't switch between the two inputs--both are always active.
The Audioengine 5+ powered speakers deliver excellent sound quality and provide a clutter-free way to listen to smartphones, iPods, or any other audio source.

Audioengine 5+
The fantastic, audiophile-friendly Audioengine 5+ speakers sound powerful without a thunderous subwoofer or booming bass.
Audiophile-quality performance. Flat response speakers that provide refined bass performance. Attractive design.
Remote has very few controls on it. No ability to adjust treble or bass. Not for bass lovers.
Before we discuss the A5+'s audio performance, let's briefly discuss the differences between it and the older A5, which is $50 cheaper and still available from Audioengine. The A5+'s most notable upgrades are the inclusion of a remote control, the...

Review: Audioengine A5+ Powered Speakers
Audioengine's new A5+ speakers keep what was already great about the company's original A5s, while adding a number of small refinements.
Rich, detailed, room-filling sound that bests speakers costing twice as much. New quarter-inch threaded inserts on the bottom of each speaker for easy stand mounting. Dead simple to set up. USB power port keeps your iPhone/iPod charged and the music...
The convenient, top mounted 3.5mm AUX input and USB port are now moved to the back. Still a bit bulky for a lot of desks. Baked-in AirPlay compatibility would be nice

AudioEngine A5+ Speakers Review
For multimedia speakers, the extension of the AudioEngine 5+ speakers are going to give you some excellent real-world low end not found on most 2.0 systems-and you can always add a subwoofer.

Audioengine 5+ Powered Speakers Preview
There is no doubt that the Audioengine A5+ speakers are going to be a hit. At $400, you are getting a lot of speaker for not a lot of money.

Audioengine A5+ Wireless Powered Speakers Review - HomeTheaterHifi.com
Audioengine's 5+ wireless powered speakers can bring big sound into small and varied spaces. They are substantial and bring surprisingly big sound...
Excellent Bluetooth sound quality ; Extremely versatile all-in-one solution ; Attractive build quality and finishes ; Enough amplifier power to be used in many applications
Headphone output
Their versatility is enough to recommend the speakers. They’ll match any décor and play from pretty much any music source. The built-in amp and the sound quality they provide make it even easier to recommend them.
