If They Sound Too Good to Be True, They’re Audioengine

Audioengine’s analog amplifiers are designed to give you a much warmer, clearer sound with rich, pure bass tones than the digital amplifiers you find in so many mass-produced speakers. Some people think analog is “old,” but it’s not. It’s experienced.

Of course, it helps that our cabinets are hand-built and the sound is hand-engineered. With retro analog and modern design, the A5 is a classic home music system that just keeps getting better.

Their Size Speaks Volumes

Built with hand-tuned aramid fiber woofers, silk tweeters, and built-in power amps in precision-tuned and hand-crafted cabinets, the A5+ Home Music System is small enough that you might just overlook it. But turn these speakers up and they're impossible to miss.

Reasons to Love It

Here are just a few of the benefits to owning the A5+ System

  • On your bookshelf or on stands
  • 5” woofers
  • Analog inputs
  • Designed to connect seamlessly to a subwoofer, like our S8 Powered Subwoofer

Questions & answers about the

A5+ Home Music System

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.

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 I need a separate receiver for Audioengine powered speakers?

Nope! Audioengine powered speakers have amplifiers built-in. This means you don't need any extra equipment, other than a source to play music on (smartphone, / tablet, a computer, CD player, Turntable, Etc). Just plug
your source directly into the inputs on the rear panel of the left speaker with the included cables, and you're listening to music!

Will my current universal remote work with my A5+ Classic?

The A5+ Classic is not officially supported by any universal remotes. It is possible to use a third party remote, but that remote needs to support IR learning. This is a feature that allows a universal remote to learn commands directly from the remote we supply. The Logitech Harmony remote, for example, is supported by the A5+ Classic.

Can I use my headphones with the A5+ Classic?

You wouldn't be able to use a pair of headphones directly with the A5+
Classic; in order to use headphones with the A5+ Classic, you would need to include something with a dedicated headphone amp, such as our D1. All you would need to do is plug the D1 into your computer (either with an optical or USB cable) and connect the D1 from its RCA outputs into either of the inputs of your speakers.

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!

Some people want to upgrade the audio on their TV's but aren't necessarily interested in surround sound. Can I hook up Audioengine speakers to my TV instead of buying a surround sound system or soundbar?

Audioengine speakers can be easily connected to your TV set as long as there are analog outputs available. Any of our speakers will provide a greatly enhanced TV audio experience with a wider soundstage and better imaging
than most sound bars.

Can I use a power inverter with the A5+ Classic?

Sure, for A5+ Classic you will need about 100-120W.

Can I take my A5+ Classic to another country with a different voltage?

Yes, just switch the voltage selector on the rear panel to match the AC power in your country before powering them on. We recommend changing the fuse when using a different voltage.  For 220 volts, here's the value you would need:5mm x 20mm - 1.6 amps @ 250 volts - slow blow fuse. The
power cable is detachable on our powered speakers which makes it
convenient to replace the AC plug with a different type if you don't
want to use an adapter plug.

Are the A5+ Classic speakers accurate enough to serve as studio monitors for mixing music tracks?

The A5+ Classic was designed with the user's listening experience in mind and are not marketed as pro audio mixing monitors. However, Audioengine has its roots in the studio monitor world and the A5+ Classic is quite good for this purpose. We've had customers tell us they use these for nearfield listening and music editing with excellent results.

Does the A5+ Classic 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, therefore we decided against grill covers for the A5+ Classic as they tend to negatively color the sound. Even though our speakers do not have grills they are still cat and kid-friendly!
