Audioengine A2 AIO (B2) Bluetooth Speaker – Premium Wireless Home Speaker

After buying (and being disappointed by) a portable BT speaker for my wife's use, I decided that we really could use something that could fill up more of the house when we were using it. We have an Airport express hooked up to our stereo, but it's unreliable and requires iTunes or an Apple device. I've had Audioengine A2+ speakers for my main computer already, so these were an easy choice. For the price I really don't think you'll find something with more sound. Yes, you're limited by how much bass these can produce (and it may surprise you just how much these can) and stereo separation is limited, but that should be pretty obvious when choosing this kind of device. Though limited, the bass is plenty sufficient for the types of music we listen to most frequently (classical, world music, show tunes, rock). It fills up the first floor of our house without going anywhere near the upper levels of volume. I think the audio quality is exceptional (again, given the parameters of the device) and has increased the amount of music that's playing in our house all the time, which is one of my goals in having the device. I've even used it when I've needed to give a vocal performance and wasn't sure if there was going to be an audio device on site that could play an accompaniment track with sufficient quality and volume and it worked wonderfully! Coming from the background of having and loving the A2+s I knew that I'd be satisfied by the sound of the B2. The other key consideration since it primarily sits in our dining room (when I'm not lugging it around with me!) is that it works as part of the furniture. The subdued styling, especially with the mesh grill on it really make it blend in with the environment. The only time it's noticeable as a device is when the antenna is sticking straight up, and even then it blends in. So much less an eyesore than most BT speakers or other devices. Upon very close inspection you can tell the finish is a laminate, but it still looks nice even when you're close enough to notice it. It's got a good weight and the mesh snaps on securely. The light on the rear isn't noticeable unless you've got your head behind the device to see it. The BT pairs easily and rapidly with a variety of devices. I have noticed that if you just turn off your BT without unpairing it takes a while before it can be paired again, but that's only been an issue when we're taking turns playing songs from it. It's far more reliable and versatile than the Airport equipment we have. The range is sufficient such that you can go anywhere on the floor or even up the stairs as long as you don't go to the extreme opposite end of the house. It gets used nearly daily in our house, and that's more than I can say for just about any other piece of electronics.

I am very pleased with this speaker. It is very solid and well built of wood. Finish is exceptional. Sound quality is very good for price point. Bluetooth is very easy and works every time. If your after a speaker that delivers a higher end sound but won't break the bank then I would certainly recommend this speaker

Bon rendu sonore. La taille au-dessus serait idéal ! Belle finition.

Really good sound considering the small woofers; don’t expect a lot of bass from them but the midrange is good. I’m a fan of silk and other soft dome tweeters; metal ones sound harsh to my ears. I like that it will recognize four devices once paired, no need to pair those four again. I seem to recall seeing photos showing a Bluetooth antenna on the rear that projects above the cabinet, but there is no antenna on my recent purchase. I bought two silicone wedges to raise the drivers above the carpet - I have it placed under an end table, with the face even with the front of the end table.

A primo impatto non melo aspettavo pensavo Maa’ Forse e’ Come il resto della mischia.. Ma poi, ho costatato la sua potenza in tutto Eccellente. Sono Molto Soddisfatto
