    Showing as $329 for me still

    Edit. It seems the 20% if at checkout. OP maybe update the post to mention this?

    • jamki on 26/08/2021 - 14:59

      Thanks - I added that to the description

  • Watanabe1995 on 26/08/2021 - 14:57

    Any review and compare to Edifier?

    • jamki on 26/08/2021 - 15:00

      There is a review here https://au.pcmag.com/speakers/83475/audioengine-a1 and some reviews on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=audioengine+a1

      I don't think there are any comparisons though!

    • HelpfulMilk on 26/08/2021 - 15:08

      I heard the Edifier S350DB are really good but they're $329 so a bit more than this

      • ThatsCheap on 26/08/2021 - 15:12

        S350db comes with a subwoofer, so for home entertainment or PC use there is no comparison. The S350DB is better.

        • ChatCPT on 26/08/2021 - 16:09

          can you add a sub to this? the $99 jbl sub for example

          • ONEMariachi on 27/08/2021 - 12:48

            @ChatCPT: It has a subwoofer port on it. So you can add a sub to it, but i don't think the JBL one you are referring to can, as that is specific for their sound bar range. Don't quote me 100% on the JBL though.

              @ONEMariachi: Just did hacked the jbl sub and it sounds fantastic! Tried it on my yamaha soundbar!

      • dbmitch on 26/08/2021 - 16:27

        S350DB is Home theatre territory, compared to PC speakers, I think you can guess they'll be a step above.

    F it - was looking at these after being turned off the Edifiers so this is opportune timing. Paid $263.20, thanks for the deal

    • jamki on 26/08/2021 - 16:24

      No worries! Mine arrive on Saturday - FYI the official speaker stands are OOS everywhere and likely to arrive in stock mid September. Apparently stands are essential for these speakers.

      1. Cheap - but they get dusty and that isn't ideal: https://www.amazon.com.au/Acoustic-Isolation-Monitor-Speaker…
      2. Bought these - ordered them yesterday and they arrived today: https://www.spacehifi.com.au/av-furniture/speaker-stands/kan…

      Alternatively - you could just prop them up to angle to yours ears with a book or something 😉

      Edit: Official ones: https://www.amazon.com.au/Audioengine-DS1-Desktop-Stand-Pair…

        Fine, I bought the stand as well.

        Thanks for the heads up though

        • jamki on 31/08/2021 - 13:48

          No worries!

        Half a tennis ball makes a decent ghetto stand

      • buckethat on 30/08/2021 - 20:54

        Just got them today, its quite good, was a bit worried about sound quality.

        Really need a stand though.. How do you like those Kanto ones? Do the A1 fit well on them or would it be better to go with the official ones?

        • jamki on 31/08/2021 - 13:47

          Yeah, I'd recommend them - look great and they fit really well.

          I'd say it's up to you, whatever aesthetic is more appealing to you!

          • buckethat on 22/09/2021 - 00:52

            @jamki: Ended up getting the Kanto stands, it's perfect. Angles the speakers up perfectly and holy crap it made a huge difference.

      As much as I like the value prop of the edifiers… they look like an eyesore for me.. and for something I'll be putting on my desk, I'm happy to pay more for a better looking product. Hopefully these sounds good.

    • PleasureMachine on 26/08/2021 - 16:56

      after being turned off the Edifiers

      What turned you off the edifiers?

      • ozbargainer998 on 26/08/2021 - 16:58

        The discussions in the chat and I think (don't correct me if I'm wrong!) that these are slightly smaller.

        I think sound quality was OK but these are meant to be slightly better.

        With it all I didn't feel as confident so ended up spending more.

        • PleasureMachine on 26/08/2021 - 17:02

          yeah okay. I was just curious as I've been suggested them recently and I've only just become recently familiar with them.

  • The Magic Pudding on 26/08/2021 - 15:49

    I've got some old A2s, not the current A2+
    They have a nice clear sound but they are lacking in base, and I'm not a fan of big base.
    The cost of a sub to go with it is pretty pricey.
    The rubber that surrounds the cone fell apart after a couple of years. My repair using silicone and a cheap china replacement works so far, I'm not sure if sound quality suffered.

    Not sure why Audio Engines keep getting upvoted. Until they fix their design issues, I wouldn’t touch them for the price. Go Google Audio Engines and you will see there’s quite a few unhappy customers when it comes to components failing due the heat sink design. Having said this, there will be loyal followers who would vouch for them…it’s a love hate thing.

    • Anthropomorphised on 26/08/2021 - 16:21

      Thanks for the info. What would you recommend as good alternatives?

      • jamki on 26/08/2021 - 16:27

        Edifers have really good reviews - if I had more desk space I would have gotten these: https://www.amazon.com.au/Edifier-R1700BT-Bluetooth-Bookshel…

        • TimR31 on 26/08/2021 - 16:32

          I have the R1700BTs and really like them. Astounded how good they are for the price (I paid $135 delivered)

        • Anthropomorphised on 26/08/2021 - 23:33

          Thanks, I have a decent receiver sitting around at the moment so might wait to see when a decent pair of passive bookshelf units comes up on discount.

  • acAgenCy1 on 26/08/2021 - 16:31

    The brandtactics website doesn't inspire confidence in me

    • jamki on 26/08/2021 - 16:34

      haha - just saw it… I agree!

      Luckily their reviews on Amazon seem good: https://www.amazon.com.au/sp?encoding=UTF8&asin=B08CRY9SYT&isAmazonFulfilled=0&ref=olp_merch_name_1&seller=A1W358ZJ9KRCRS

  • getit on 26/08/2021 - 16:45

    Audioengine HD3 or A1, which one is better?

  • bananhana on 26/08/2021 - 18:34

    Does anyone own the HD4? Can't decide between HD3, HD4 or A5+ for my desktop

    • strangeloops66 on 26/08/2021 - 19:03

      HD4 would be my pick. But I like speakers with grilles (KEF excepted).

      • bananhana on 26/08/2021 - 19:43

        HD4 is tempting but I don't know enough about speakers to know if its worth the extra $130.

        Couldn't find much comparsion between HD3/4 then I realised HD4 just released in 2021 compared to the HD3 which came out in 2016.

        • strangeloops66 on 26/08/2021 - 22:29

          More than an inch wider and deeper, but same height.

          2.75" woofer vs 4" leading to a lower frequency response (60Hz HD4 vs 65 Hz HD3).

          HD4 is twice as powerful (60 RMS vs 30 RMS HD3).

  • Alexender Chase on 27/08/2021 - 11:10

    what would be a better setup to listen to EDM at home? audio engine a5+ or should I bump the budget and get something like the pioneer DJ 80?

  • congo on 27/08/2021 - 18:32

    I’ve got the P4 and they are great

  • spammingb on 15/09/2021 - 18:22

    What's the difference between these and the A2/A2+?
