Our take on the Audioengine A2+ Next Gen Home Music System

The Audioengine A2+ Next Gen is a compact powered desktop speaker pair with built-in Bluetooth 5.0 and aptX, plus USB and analog inputs. It keeps the small-footprint, no-receiver setup that made the A2 line popular, adding wireless streaming and a built-in DAC. It suits desk, shelf and small-room listeners who want clear sound without an amp. Against cheaper computer speakers it offers better build and connectivity; against larger studio monitors it gives up bass depth and room-filling volume.

Questions and answers

Is the A2+ Next Gen worth it over cheaper computer speakers?
Yes if you want better build, a USB DAC and Bluetooth in a small pair. Basic computer speakers cost less but usually sound thinner and offer fewer inputs.
How does it compare with the original A2+?
The Next Gen adds Bluetooth 5.0 with aptX and a refreshed design. It drops the headphone output that the earlier A2+ had.
Do I need a subwoofer?
For bass-heavy music, movies or games, yes. The speakers handle most music nearfield, but a subwoofer adds the low end they lack.
What inputs does it have?
It has Bluetooth, USB audio and analog inputs. There is no optical input and no headphone jack.
Can I use it with a turntable?
Only with a turntable that has a built-in phono preamp, connected to the analog input. A bare turntable needs a separate preamp.
Is it good for a large living room?
No. It is built for desk and nearfield listening; a larger room needs bigger speakers or an amp.
