“Actually, they sounded really good. Really good. I would have never thought that 6″ desktop speakers could sound this good, except for maybe those studio monitors that call themselves desktop speakers. But these are actually designed for use with your computer, hence Audioengine’s tagline, “Join the computer audio [r]evolution.” Well, the A2+ speakers performed beautifully. Not only did they provide enough bass extension to satisfy any bass head (65Hz response seems a lot lower when speakers are so close; then there’s that S8 powered sub you can add on), they proved extremely forgiving in the set-up department. Yep, for $249 you can’t ask for any better than this.” —— theabsolutesound.com
