Huge Sound, Small Size
Audioengine 5 is a full-size speaker system in a bookshelf-sized package. Internal power amps eliminate the need to connect the Audioengine 5 to a bulky stereo receiver or power amplifier. And with built-in subwoofer ports, the Audioengine 5 adds incredible low-end bass without the need for an external subwoofer.

Built-in iPod Charging
Designed for optimal ease of setup and versatility, the Audioengine 5 has a built-in power port for iPod charging while listening to your music, watching movies, or playing games. Plug an Apple Universal Dock or iPod directly into the Audioengine Combo Port and you're ready to rock (or roll). The Combo Port charger is compatible with the nano and video iPod as well as all other products that charge via USB.

Airport Express Power
With an AC power jack in the rear panel, the Audioengine 5 provides the ability to stream music from your laptop directly to the speakers through Apple's Airport Express. The rear panel AC outlet is also ideal for providing power to other portable and home A/V equipment. A 2nd auxiliary mini-jack is located nearby for audio input from the Airport Express or other products. We've also included plenty of cables in a drawstring bag to connect all your gear.

No Receiver? No Problem!
For listening to real stereo sound Audioengine is all you need. If you want awesome speakers for your portable music player, game console, TV or DVD player but don't want a bulky receiver/amp hogging up your space, the Audioengine 5 system does the job.

Audioengine A5

★★★★☆

"For desktop computer (nearfield) use, best if elevated so that tweeters are ear level. I used Sterilite 3 drawer containers to get 7 inches. I also use Herbies Audio White Monitor Stand Pads to minimize vibrations. "

"These are self-powered speakers and they should be used as such. I use them for my computer and iPod (uncompressed files) and they sound excellent. Soon, I will add a USB digital to analog converter which should help improve the sound quite a bit. If you use them on a desk, be sure to isolate them f …" Read Full Review »
