Quality

High quality speakers their good for small to medium sized rooms.

First thing i can say is that i bought these speakers in 2013 and as of writing this review it's now 2024 that' means i had the... Read More

Bluetooth started to fail after two years.

I spent the better part of six months trying to find a quality bluetooth bookshelf speaker for my andover turntable.

Price

For the money this is a real winner and i recommend it for anyone looking for a bluetooth speaker set upper home, office or.

All around these are a great buy at this price for a mid range audio setup.

I had to spend well over $800 to get something that only approaches it.

If you plan to use them for computer speakers in a near field you could save a bit of money and go for the a2+ set.

Shipping

I messaged audioengine and they had a brand new unit out to me without any questions within a few days.

Packaging/appearance

I also liked that everything you need to get setup is in the box, and the instructions were clear and easy to read.

Upon opening and checking contents i was happy to see they were in fact still new.

Competitiveness

My kef speakers for my tv sound much better as do both my sony wireless headphones and my sennheiser wired headphones.

I believe it is pretty well optimized now and my computer speaker system is nearly as good as the bose was.

I've tried many solutions over the years - klipsch, bose, svs and many other brands you've never heard of.

The companion 3 is no longer sold in the us, only the companion 2 is, so i had to look elsewhere.
