" ... It's a shame because these speakers look great, but there are better options for this price range. ... "
" ... For some you will need a sub-woofer, I am using a powered Klipswitch 12 inch. ... I also got the rubber speaker stands that they sell for these. ... For now the sound is getting better by the hour, they recommend a 50 hr break in period. ... "
" ... ever since I got these speakers I listen to music 2x more just because of how good they freaking sound. ... "
" ... Secondly, well worth the investment for the sound field they produce around my computer workstation. ... Excellent response from top to bottom, with awesome separation of bass, mids and treble frequencies and sufficient power to satisfy an aging rock & roller! ... And as a bonus, they can be left ON all the time unlike some other speaker pairs. ... "
" ... I used them for an outdoor movie night and everyone commented on the sound. ... "
" ... These speakers have great sound. ... "
" ... I bought the regular black plastic cabinet speakers and I use them for listening to music,audio production and as my main source of television sound. ... Amazing clarity and the low end frequencies are punchy and smooth. ... The A 5's cost a bit more than the Bose I previously owned, but they are far and above better speakers. ... Most recently I added the Audio engine sub-woofer, and I am in sonic heaven! ... These speakers are so awesome that I have a hard time getting up from my listening chair. ... I recommend these speakers very highly! ... "
" ... These speakers are great. ... Quality audio is one of the most important hobbies and enjoyments of mine. ... Now I can’t stop listening to them! ... "

" ... - You will note from the photo that I have the A5 speakers with the external B1 Bluetooth receiver and not the integrated Bluetooth version of the speakers. ... - terminals, banana plugs, aux ports (rca) and other connections are top notch. ... "
" ... Bluetooth works well and the sound quality is good. ... "
" ... I have to agree the sound is really great and I can play Bluetooth audio through them. ... "
" ... I bought my second pair along with my second Audioengine S8 Subwoofer. ... "
" ... Also, I love the fact that I can play these wireless speakers from my desktop, my laptop, and also my wife's laptop, ... "
" ... I decided to bypass the built in bluetooth with a newly purchased Douk Audio mini bluetooth tube preamp purchased to add bluetooth to the bose radio. ... "
" ... Enjoying the bluetooth with my laptop, but looking forward to incorporating other equipment with them as well. ... "
" ... The Bluetooth is nice! ... To pair with almost any device. ... If your tv allows standard Bluetooth this can pair to it. ... "

" ... They were exactly what I was looking for and I've only scratched the surface after three days of ownership. ... "

" ... I also got the rubber speaker stands that they sell for these. ... "
" ... The knobs and overall build is really solid. ... "
" ... well made quality product . ... compact good for computer speakers. ... "
" ... With all that said, I had to return these, as they were much larger than expected, I am already at a premium for desk space (my fault for not thoroughly checking product dimensions). ... "
" ... The enclosure build quality is fantastic. ... "
