All in all, the Audioengine A5+ Wireless are incredibly fun to listen to provide a rich, room fulling sound. If you are in the market for some great speakers and if you can find them on sale, I would certainly pick them up. If you have the budget, it's hard to go wrong with them.

The A5+ speakers are light on their feet, sound subtle and boast impressive dynamics. Their sonic scale is striking for the money, happily filling our room better than similarly sized iPod docks.

Audioengine's A5+ is a punchy, enjoyable pair of self-powered, bookshelf-size speakers that, at $399, won't break the bank.

The fantastic, audiophile-friendly Audioengine 5+ speakers sound powerful without a thunderous subwoofer or booming bass.

Audioengine's new A5+ speakers keep what was already great about the company's original A5s, while adding a number of small refinements.

You'd be hard-pressed to find a pair of powered stereo speakers at this price point that sounds better--and offer more flexibility--than the Audioengine 5s.

Forget about the MM-1, forget about the Companion 5, forget about the BeoLab 4. If you’re looking for the best pair of all around speakers for your computer, this is it.

For $399, yes I'm going there, I'd say that the Audioengine 5+s give you more than you've given Audioengine. They strike me as the proverbial audiophile bargain capable of delivering musical satisfaction on most levels that count.

In juggling many considerations in its 5+, Audioengine has contrived to not drop one. As well executed as it is well designed, this attractive bookshelf speaker is a thoroughly practical product that worked, and worked well, practically right out of the box.

For multimedia speakers, the extension of the AudioEngine 5+'s is going to give you some excellent real-world low end not found on most 2.0 systems - and you can always add a sub if you want more.
