Aktimate might be putting a DAC into the Mini as well.

If they can fit a USB DAC into the much smaller micro, they definitely can put one into the Mini and therefore there are plans for that, AFAIK, talking to the Australian distributors. Shouldn't be long now, I was told about this a few months ago.

But again the DAC won't be the best DAC you'll ever find, just functional and decent, like the ones in the Maxi and Micro.

For desktop purposes I feel the micro is insanely good.

I prefer them compared to the AE5s or the AE2s. The AE5s are more powerful but the micros have control, and a touch more power than the AE2s.

But it all really depends on personal preference, space and setup.

are the aktimate micro and mini is forward type sounding? i mean the vocal and instrument playing from them is forward type? audioengine making voice sound sweet...but it was laid back...they tend to presence bass before the mid and high..so not so gud if play slowly....not so gud partner with my sound card that making sound more laid back..although the sound card open up the sound..
if the aktimate micro/mini is forward type sounding(opposite signature sound with audioengine)...so its great combination...
im like to play music at average sound(due listem them in bedroom only)...but hoping new set speaker can give clear detail even play with slowly...so if the aktimate is bass presence type..it may not suit me...cuz neeed to push loud to hear clarity...
hope u can help me...i just can depend on someone preferene to buy speaker..cuz far from capital city...here no place to audition...

One comes with subwoofer and one doesn't. Isn't quite comparable.

How does A5/5+ compare to M Audio AV40? I know the price difference is kinda big but how does it perform? I mainly listen to hip hop song. Look for something to replace my crappy 2.1 setup
