The Audioengine A5+ Bookshelf Speakers are a pair of 2-way, bass-reflex speakers designed for tabletop or bookshelf placement, delivering clear and powerful audio. Each speaker features a 5-inch woven aramid-fiber woofer and a 0.75-inch silk dome tweeter, driven by a 100W RMS Class-AB amplifier. The active left speaker offers versatile connectivity with RCA and 3.5mm audio inputs, a USB-A charging output, and binding post outputs to the passive right speaker, all housed in an elegant natural bamboo MDF cabinet.
Select speakers based on your room size and primary use case, whether it's critical music listening or home theater. Do not rely solely on wattage numbers, as efficiency and acoustic design matter far more for actual loudness and clarity. Available from $469.
Quality speakers have minimal ongoing costs outside of nominal electricity use for active models. Proper care can result in decades of use, making the initial purchase price the primary expense.
Common Failure Modes
Speakers typically fail due to blown drivers from over-amplification or degrading foam surrounds over many years. Active speakers may also suffer from internal amplifier or wireless connectivity module failures.
