Hi guys, I just got a pair of A5+ speakers at the weekend. I went over to DAS in Pudu. They are in the process of moving upstairs at the moment but their audition room upstairs is setup and fine. When I arrived they were demoing the A2's for someone then he showed me the A5+'s he also said that the overheating problem of the A5's has been solved with the plus. The sound was amazing, If you are thinking of getting a pair pop over there and have a listen for yourself. The guys who were there to buy A2s even ended up getting the A5+s instead!
I was only planning on buying the A5+s but when he showed me them running with the AS8 sub it just sounded so good that I ended up buying the sub as well. I also got a USB DAC while I was there as this setup is being used with my 27" Imac.

in terms of sound, is there any difference between A5 with A5+ ?
btw it seems audioengine came out with wireless DAC @_@

Bought the AudioEngine A5+ along with the AS8 from Digital Audio Studio. The sound quality coming out from this speakers is an absolute far cry from my old logitech speakers, and pairs along nicely with my Xonar soundcard. At the moment adjusting the subs crossover for the best middleground for all my media,games and movies.

Wow! RM1k++, surely an upgrade~

i checked out B&W 686 today, fantastic sound. 1.9k for speakers only.

but it must run with amp, any budget amp ? cheapest i saw was 1.1k yamaha.dam

not quite sure. i run mine with dac all the time

I run my AE5+ with D2X and it runs great, on the STX it should sound just as good or even better.

i brought Ae a5+ & STX. Get it after 10 days, will upload pics to share .

anyone know if can trade in A5 for A5+ eh? hehe

I just purchased a desktop rubber stand for my aktimate mini from DAS. Had a short conversation with Mr Chin. He's a very nice guy to talk with so i end up staying a little longer than expected.
When i got to my car, I found a love letter in front of my windscreen.

Hi,

to all A5+ owners, any old A5's problems/issues such as amp overheating & left channel is louder than right channel?

Hope to hear from your feedback.

Cheers. CSC
