An Experience That Will Take You Far Beyond the Desktop

On one end of the spectrum, some speakers sound amazing but cost as much as all the bling in L.A. On the other, some speakers are reasonably priced but aren’t much better constructed than the box they came in. And in the center, there’s Audioengine.

We designed the A2+ to exceed your expectations for sound while not exceeding the limits of your budget.

With bass you’d expect from a nightclub and a cabinet that fits both your desktop and your aesthetic, the A2+ has found a middle ground that’s miles beyond the rest.

Questions & answers about the
A2+ Home Music System w/ Bluetooth aptX

Why is my computer not recognizing the A2+BT speakers after sleep mode?
- This issue occurs because some computers fail to “wake up” the USB port after a period of inactivity. While our A2+BT uses UPnP drivers for maximum compatibility, the USB connection is identified as an external DAC by most systems. Recent operating system updates for Mac and Windows have made this issue more frequent.
  
  1. What solutions can I try to resolve this issue?
  
  The solution often requires trial and error based on your specific computer setup. Many customers have found helpful tips and solutions in the following resources:
  - For Mac users: Apple Community Thread
  - For Windows users: StarTech USB Issues FAQ
  2. Is there a difference in audio quality when using USB/Bluetooth versus analog connections?
  
  Yes, there is a difference. Here’s what you need to know:
  - USB/Bluetooth Connection: This uses the digital-to-analog converter (DAC) built into the A2+BT speakers, which is 16-bit.
  - Analog Connection (RCA or 3.5mm inputs): This uses the DAC in your computer or device. Since most modern computers support 24-bit or even 32-bit audio, you’ll achieve better sound quality when using an analog connection.
  3. How do I know which connection type is best for me?
  - If you prioritize convenience or wireless functionality, USB or Bluetooth is a great choice.
  - If you’re looking for the highest audio fidelity, consider using analog connections like RCA or a 3.5mm mini-jack.
  If you need further assistance, feel free to reach out to our support team. We’re here to help!
How can I improve the bass on my Audioengine A2+ Home Music System?
- If you’re looking to enhance the bass on your A2+ Home Music System, there are a few steps you can take to achieve the sound you’re looking for:
  1. Speaker Positioning:
    The placement of your speakers can have a significant effect on bass performance. Try placing the speakers closer to a wall, which can naturally amplify the bass. Additionally, ensure that the surface they’re on is stable, as vibrations can impact sound quality.
  2. Use of Equalizer Software:
    Windows 11 has built-in sound enhancements, but for more detailed control over the bass and other sound frequencies, we recommend using third-party equalizer software. One highly recommended option is a DSP correction software specifically designed for A2+ Home Music System. You can find more details about this software and how to use it in this article: Enhancing Audioengine A2+.
  This software allows for precise adjustments of the bass and other sound settings to give you a more customized listening experience.

I’m experiencing issues with my speakers when connected via USB on a Windows 10/Windows 11 operating system. What could be causing this, and how can I fix it?
- If you are experiencing issues with your speakers when connected via USB on a Windows 10+ operating system, it might be due to the DCH (Declarative, Componentized, Hardware Support Apps) drivers. While DCH drivers offer many benefits, they can sometimes cause compatibility issues with USB audio devices, resulting in problems such as delays when sound starts, poor audio quality, or the speakers not being recognized properly.
  
  Solution: To resolve these issues, we recommend switching from DCH drivers to non-DCH (standard) drivers. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you do that:
  1. Uninstall the Current DCH Drivers:
    - Open the Device Manager on your PC.
    - Locate your audio device under “Sound, video, and game controllers.”
    - Right-click on the device and select “Uninstall device.”
    - Ensure you check the option to delete the driver software for this device to completely remove the DCH drivers.
  2. Download the Non-DCH Drivers:
    - Visit the support website of your motherboard or computer manufacturer.
    - Navigate to the driver download section and find the non-DCH Realtek (or appropriate) audio drivers for your system.
  3. Install the Non-DCH Drivers:
    - Download and run the installer for the non-DCH drivers.
    - Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation process.
  4. Restart Your PC:
    - After installing the non-DCH drivers, restart your computer to apply the changes.
  By switching to non-DCH drivers, the compatibility issues with your USB speakers should be resolved, allowing you to enjoy optimal audio performance.
  
  Additional Tips
  - Check for Firmware Updates: Ensure your speakers have the latest firmware installed. Visit the manufacturer’s website for firmware updates that may improve compatibility and performance.
  - USB Ports: Try connecting your speakers to a different USB port to see if the issue persists.
  - Contact Support: If you continue to experience issues, please contact our customer support team. Provide details about your operating system, motherboard model, and the specific problems you are encountering.
  We hope this helps you resolve any issues and enhances your experience with our speakers. If you have further questions or need assistance, don’t hesitate to reach out to our support team.
How to Clean Your Audioengine Home Music System
- 1. Turn Off and Unplug:
  - Make sure your system is turned off and unplugged.
  2. Dust the Surfaces:
  - Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe away dust.
  - For hard-to-reach places, use a soft brush or a can of compressed air.
  3. Wipe Down the Exterior:
  - We do not recommend using any solvents
  - If cleaning off stains or build-up is necessary, we recommend doing so with a very small amount of mild cleaning solution applied only to the affected area, followed by quickly wiping the area dry completely.
  - Any scoured pads or objects like a ‘magic eraser’ too easily run the risk of removing sealers and top coats of the painted finish that can leave a clearly visible change in the uniformity of the paint/finish
  4. Clean the Speaker Grills:
  - The speaker grills can be gently cleaned with a vacuum, preferably using a soft bush attachment.
  - A lint roller can also be used.
  5. Clean Buttons and Knobs:
  - A dry cloth is recommend for cleaning any knobs, buttons or other surfaces
  - Be careful not to let water get into any gaps.
  6. Clean Ports and Connections:
  - Use compressed air to blow out dust from ports and connections.
  7. Let Everything Dry:
  - Make sure everything is completely dry before plugging back in and turning on.
  8. Regular Cleaning:
  - Dust your system regularly to keep it in good shape.
  By following these steps, you can keep your Audioengine system clean and working well.
A2+ size: What is the dimensions of the A2+?
- Each speaker is 6″ (15.2 cm) x 4″ (10.2 cm) x 5.25″ (13.3 cm)
Can I use Audioengine speakers with an existing Sonos setup?
- Absolutely! You can connect any Audioengine speaker with an analog output to any Sonos product that has the Line-In feature. You can also connect any Audioengine passive speakers into an existing Sonos system using the Sonos Amp.
Can I connect Alexa to my wireless Audioengine speakers?
- Absolutely! To do so:
  - Open the Alexa App on your smartphone or tablet (Apple link | Google Play Link)
  - Tap the “Devices” icon and select the Echo/Alexa device you want to connect to speakers
  - Select “Bluetooth Devices”
  - Select “Pair New Device”
  - Find your Audioengine wireless speaker on the list of available Bluetooth devices, and select it
Are Audioengine products compatible with Bluetooth 5.0?
- Yes! We incorporate all the relevant functions and features from Bluetooth 5.0 that apply to our products! These features include; extended range, low latency (so that video and audio sync properly), as well as higher level aptX-HD, aptX, and AAC codecs (with the exception of our 512 portable speaker which supports SBC only). Keep in mind that the capability of the source is what controls the Bluetooth experience.
If I connect my turntable to Audioengine speakers, do I need a phono preamp? Or can I simply connect the turntable directly to the analog input?
- All turntables require a phono preamp stage before connecting to Audioengine speakers. Many turntables have this built-in , while others do not and would require an external phono preamp. Check the turntable manufacturer’s website or user manual. Some turntables may even include Bluetooth, in which case you can pair and connect them to the speakers wirelessly!
Do higher power output ratings for audio gear mean louder or better sounding speakers?
- Not necessarily. Audioengine speakers and amplifiers are very efficient. Also, we designed them together as a system; so, we therefore get more volume output than stereo receivers or amplifiers that might have higher wattage or power numbers. Due to this tuning, we achieve big sound outputs with a fraction of the power required by other systems.
Can I take my Audioengine speakers to another country with a different voltage?
- Yes, you can. The A2+ Wireless speakers use a switching power supply so it will automatically convert to the different voltage. The power cable is also detachable which makes it convenient to replace the AC plug with a different type if you don’t want to use an adapter plug.
Can I use the A2+ Wireless with my iPad or iPhone via USB to bypass the internal DAC and get better sound?
- Absolutely! You will need to pick up Apple’s Lightning to USB 3 Camera Adapter, which allows a USB connection to the iPad (and, as of iOS7, the iPhone). Then just hook up as you would from a computer. You can even charge your iPhone or iPad while you use it this way!
Does A2+ Wireless come with speaker grills?
- Our woofers are made of aramid fiber and the tweeter domes are silk. Both of these materials are very robust and can handle quite a bit of abuse. For our A-series speakers we decided against grill covers as they do tend to color the sound a bit. However, without speaker grills they are more cat and kid-friendly! If you do prefer speakers with grills, you can check out our HD3 speakers here: https://audioengineusa.com/shop/wirelessspeakers/hd3-wireless-speakers/
Can I stream via Bluetooth and use the USB input at the same time?
- No. The Bluetooth and USB inputs both share the internal DAC for processing, so you can only listen to one at a time, with Bluetooth taking priority. If you’re using USB for example, and start using Bluetooth, the USB signal will cut and Bluetooth will take over. Depending on your source, if you pause or disconnect from Bluetooth the speakers may automatically switch back to USB after a few seconds.
Will my music have a delay through the A2+ Wireless if I’m watching a movie or music video?
- Though overall latency can be affected by some external factors (including but not limited to signal strength, and even simply being physically further away from the speakers), Bluetooth on the A2+ Wireless generally has a delay of about 30ms (milliseconds) so you should be able to watch videos from Youtube, for example, and stream out the audio to the A2+ Wireless without any significant or noticeable lag between the video and audio.
If A2+ Wireless is paired and connected to my phone via Bluetooth, do I need to do anything else to play music?
- Once your A2+ Wireless is paired and connected via Bluetooth, then any app (TIDAL, Music, Spotify, etc.) will automatically play your music through Bluetooth.
Do I need to install any special software apps or drivers for the A2+ Wireless?
- No extra software or drivers are needed. The A2+ Wireless is compatible with any device that supports Bluetooth, and the A2DP profile for streaming stereo audio. This includes most smartphones, tablets, and computers. For computers that don’t include BLuetooth support out of the box, you can simply add a USB Bluetooth adapter. The same is also true for the USB connection on the A2+, which uses plug-and-play drivers provided by your computer’s OS. The A2+ USB input is compatible out of the box with Windows and Mac computers, iPhones and iPads when using Apple’s lightning USB 3 adapter along with a fast wall charger, and should work with most Android Smartphones and Tablets as well.
Will the A2+ Wireless’s range work between more than one room inside my house?
- In most cases, Yes! The overall range you can expect will vary depending on the device you use with the A2+ Wireless, as well as things like the type of construction used in walls you’ll be transmitting through. In our testing, most mobile devices like smartphones and tablets will have the best range, some of which can exceed 100 ft in good conditions, even through one wall. Laptops and desktop computers in our testing generally had less overall range with an average of around 70 ft in similar good conditions through a single wall.
Is the A2+ Wireless designed only for use with Bluetooth devices?
- The A2+ Wireless work excellent via Bluetooth, but they can also be used wired, with more traditional source devices like Turntables, CD players, or anything else with a standard analog audio connection like RCAs or 3.5mm stereo-mini. They also include a USB port for use with a Windows or Mac computer, as well as many Smartphones and Tablets with the right USB adapter cable.
What if my source doesn’t support aptX? Can I still use the A2+ Wireless and if so, how will it sound?
- You can absolutely still use the A2+ Wireless and it will sound great. AptX is a high-quality Bluetooth audio codec that works really well. In addition aptX, and the default Bluetooth codec SBC, The A2+ Wireless support other high quality audio codecs, like AAC for use on Apple iPhone and iPads, as well as Android devices that do not include aptX.
Do Audioengine speakers have an auto-sleep, idle, or auto-power-off function? Can I leave them on all the time?
- Yes they do! They are equipped with a power-saving circuit that turns off the speaker’s final stage amp. This idle mode activates right after you stop playing music. Due to this power-saving function, it’s perfectly fine for the speakers to stay on all the time!
