Audioengine A5+ Powered Bookshelf Speakers, High Gloss White
The Audioengine A5+ is a premium powered bookshelf speaker system delivering 50 watts RMS per channel from dual Class AB amplifiers built directly into the left speaker, offering a complete, high-quality two-channel music system in a single elegant package.
Designed for listeners who want serious desktop or near-field audio performance without a separate amplifier, the A5+ combines hand-built 1-inch MDF cabinets with 5-inch aramid fiber (Kevlar) woofers and 0.75-inch silk dome tweeters, tuned to deliver a frequency response of 50 Hz–22 kHz with exceptionally low distortion of less than 0.05% THD+N at all power settings. The dual Class AB monolithic amplifier design runs both channels from a single, solid analog signal path, avoiding the switching noise associated with Class D designs and delivering the smooth, warm, detailed sound that has made the A5+ one of the most respected powered speakers in its category. Cabinet construction uses thick high-resin MDF walls with extensive internal bracing and internal sound-damping material, with all edges rounded to reduce high-frequency diffraction — the kind of engineering detail more commonly found in audiophile passive speakers than in powered desktop designs.
The high gloss white finish on this pair is stunning and in excellent cosmetic condition, showing only the most minimal signs of careful use. The original heavy metal remote control is included, a premium accessory that reinforces the A5+’s position above the typical powered speaker market and allows convenient volume, mute, and sleep control from the listening position. Inputs include a rear-panel 3.5mm stereo mini-jack and stereo RCA inputs, both active simultaneously for easy integration of multiple sources. A variable RCA line output on the rear panel allows a powered subwoofer to be added for extended bass, and a rear USB port provides power charging for connected devices.
