Digital camera reviews of Audioengine A5B Powered Bookshelf Speaker System - Black Finish
Digital camera Review: Great speakers and Customer Service
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought a pair of the A5s two months ago, after reading the many rave reviews here. Alas, two nights ago, one of the speakers stopped working - at least the woofer did. I envisioned the usual nightmare of having to ship it somewhere for a repair.
I phoned AudioEngine's tech support line. I was surprised and gratified when the friendly fellow I spoke to told me they would ship a replacement speaker out to me immediately, and include a UPS label to send them the broken speaker at no cost to me. But he also suggested that I call the retailer who sold them to me - Westworld Computers in Vancouver, BC.
To my immense relief, I was told to bring the broken one into the store to receive an immediate replacement. I live a few blocks from Westworld.
The end of the story: I had a new speaker back in my livingroom within 15 minutes, working perfectly.
Although it was disappointing to have one break, this is the best customer service that I can imagine. That, on top of the speakers' sound quality, makes them an excellent buy!
Summary of Audioengine A5B Powered Bookshelf Speaker System - Black Finish
Small Speakers, Big Bass. You won't hear any enhanced super-mega-hyper-monster boomy bass from these speakers. The low end from the Audioengine 5 is real bass, very near to the originally recorded music. From rap to classical to movies, you'll get tight, punchy bass with an awesome growl that will make you smile - regardless of the volume level. Kevlar woofers for powerful bass, silk dome tweeters for smooth highs, built-in power amplifiers, truly useful connections, and a clean industrial design all allow the Audioengine 5 to integrate perfectly in your living room, bedroom, or desktop. Custom-designed and handcrafted wood cabinets with high-gloss professional piano finish make the Audioengine 5 a true work of art. All these (and more) have been carefully considered to create an authentic soundstage for your valuable multimedia components - the sound as it was originally mixed in the studio. Vocals are clearly placed and each instrument occupies its own space.BR> It works with: Flat panel TV Mobile phones and PDAs CD and DVD players Videogame players Digital radio and satellite receivers All other products with 1/8 mini-jack or RCA outputs! The 2-way speaker system employs a 5 Kevlar Woofer coupled with a 20mm silk soft-dome Tweeter to deliver a wide frequency response range from 50 Hz up to 22,000Hz. The 1 thick MDF cabinet offers excellent audio support to deliver an authentic, rich soundstage that rivals much larger speaker systems. ipod power charger port 2 audio inputs Built-in power amplifiers, no receiver needed - 45 Watts RMS per channel Wireless-ready!
