Review: The little Audioengines that could! - So I picked up these little Audioengine P4, in bamboo...here's my impressions... First, a quick description of the music system I'm using these in as a point of reference -- power is coming from a Peachtree Audio Decco2, running lossless files from a new iMac -- speakers are these P4s in a small, office based computer set-up. Speakers are placed a couple inches off each end of the the imac. I stumbled upon these little bookshlef speakers from desertcart reviews...most reviewers sung them such high praise, I decided to take a chance on them, seeing that I had 30 days from desertcart to return them if I was disappointed -- prior to discovering them, I was strongly considering gettig some B & W 685s or something to that extent. First, the build quality as others have noted, is exceptionally nice -- perfectly finsihed, these speakers are not light weight junk plastic, but housed in solid bamboo which feel and look to be handsome, quality product. The silk tweeter and 4" kevlar woofer are well engineered -- no imperfections or defects to comment on. The rear cable inputs are also done well with also no imperfections or faulty pieces. Ultimately, you can have a speaker that appears fantastic on the outside, but when you hear the music, the romance suddenly stops -- not so with these; they sound as beautiful as they look -- truely impressive! I have a pair of floorstanding B&W CMs, and with the exception of obviously producing larger, more bassier sound, these little guys with the combo I described earlier do just as well, if not in some aspects better. They have a tremendous soundstage for being so small, and can easily fill a smaller room full of music. As with other good speakers, these tend to disappear and you find yourself engulfed in sweet sound without a specific reference point of where the speaker is placed or where the music is coming from -- a sign of a quality speaker -- your awareness is overtaken by the fullness of sound these produce. They speakers maintain their clarity at all but the highest of volumes. If anything, the space in which I've placed them is a bit tight, and they would probably benefit from being spaced further apart to expand the soundstage. The mids these produce are very nice and lush...singers' voices sound fantastic and up front, and highs are high, but not shrill or harsh. Instrument separation & placement are also all fantasic -- on good recordings with multiple layers of instruments, these can reproduce a stunning amount of clarity, precision & detail. Again, I was very impressed -- maybe it's the amp their coupled with (the Decco2 which is just super as well), but altogether, I don't think you'll find a better passive speaker for right around 3 bills...if you do, please let me know! If B & W would place their logo on these, these could go for as much as their CM line bookshelf speakers which run close to $1k. Highly recommend!!! In my opinion, easily one of the best sounding bookshelfs (in this size) in this price range, and can easily compete with more expensive speakers which cost 3 to 4 times as much. Give them a shot -- your ears will thank you!
Review: Spectacular and integrate perfectly with the N22 - Before buying these speakers I wasn't sure what I was getting. Audioengine made some lofty claims about their build quality and after trying out the A5 active speakers I was a bit dubious. They really did win me over though, and here's why: Sound: By far the most important thing when you're dropping $250 for a set of speakers. If you want studio-monitor neutrality, these aren't for you. Having said that, I never heard any noticeable shift in volume depending on the fequency. Especially compared to KEF (which have dips in response prominent enough it sounds like you suddenly turned down the volume) they were solid. Comparing them to NHT Superzero 2.0's, they didn't embarass themselves in regards to neutrality. More importantly, these things rocked! They can be pushed to high enough volume to fill a moderately sized room without distortion. They are extremely musical, and it was hard to tear myself away from the sofa listening to (especially rock) music... finally a speaker designed with music in mind. Bass extension was very surprising. They are listed as barely dipping into the upper 50 hz range. Paired with the N22 and taking into account their front ports though, I firmly believe they play lower than their specs indicate. One caveat being I definitely think this boost in the lower end, which was nice and tight rather than boomy, is the result of engineering the N22 and the A4's to compliment each other. A subwoofer is not absolutely mandatory (though a good idea). The only area I thought they fell short compared to other great speakers in their price range was detail. These aren't just loudspeakers but I could not hear the subtle sounds that some other models brought out in my lossless files+dac music set-up. Build: The only thing I have to say is watch the tweeters.. and even they seem about as durable as a speaker's most delicate part can get. The kevlar woofers? You could go so far as to push on them with a finger, and they feel VERY scratch resistant. The cabinents are well made and I don't imagine them showing wear & tear easily. Combined with the included dampening pads they are very non-resonant and sturdy. The gold inputs are icing on the cake... its virtually impossible to find that kind of quality signifier below $400. They are also MUCH smaller than I thought. Although they perform like real bookshelf speakers, their size is more comparable to some satellite speakers than any full fledged bookshelf speaker. Definitely something that'll blend in easily wherever you put them, and helps with imaging. I heavily recommend these speakers if you don't have some elaborate set-up to bring out the tiny details in music (or if you are more concerned with rocking out than quietly picking out notes). They're also quite portable... very easy to travel with in a small bag if you want to bring good sound with you on a vacation.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: It I am adding a pair of read speakers to my A5+ & Sub, should I go with this and an N22, or just A2s? Sorry, I'm a bit new at this.**
A: Hi James,Can you provide me with a little more information on your speaker set-up objective? If you already have a set of A5+ speakers and a subwoofer you have a pretty sweet 2.1 powered system.  Two A5+ speakers, a sub and two P4 Passive speakers with a N22 creating a 5.1 system would blow the doors off.  Space may or not be an issue for you, but I would go with the A2+s' and if if you're seeking overall better sound either through your speakers or headphones, add a D1 DAC. The sound differential with the DAC (running through a usb) as opposed to the internal sound card is significantly better. Not sure if this helps. If you want to drop me a note relative to your overall objective (music preferences, gaming, room size, etc.) I will respond.  My initial reaction in that A2+ would be more than sufficient, give you everything you need and not consume as much space. Again, think hard about adding the DAC from Audioengine.

**Q: What wall mounts should i used for these audioengine p4 speakers?**
A: According to the P4 Setup Guide the "AP4 speakers include two standard 3/8" threaded inserts on the rear panel and another identical insert on the bottom of each AP4 cabinet for attaching a speaker mount or bracket.  We recommend using products by companies such as OmniMount or Sanus.  Before installing the mounts or brackets make sure you consult all documentation and carefully follow the installation instructions."

**Q: Do these speakers not have a grill or cover?**
A: No, they do not have a grill. This improves sound. The woofers are made of kevlar, so they are quite sturdy and do not need grills for protection from accidentally being perforated when handling as do traditional paper cone speakers. That said, all speakers should be handled with care.

**Q: Would this speaker work with pyle in-wall audio control receiver w/ built-in amplifier? https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/b010u5egke/ref=ewc_pr_img_1?**
A: Unfortunately they would not as there are no line-level outputs built into that device.  The A2+'s have a built in amplifier that powers the 2 speakers so sending an amplified signal to the speakers could damage them.  If you can find a similar device with line level outputs (either RCA outputs or a 3.5mm aux output) then that should work with our speakers.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Holy Moly these sound good! Beautiful to boot. 2023 UPDATE
*by A***N on February 16, 2022*

These continue to be a really great near field monitor for me. Very smooth, musical, and non-fatiguing top end. Feels like a fairly flat response with a tad of high end roll off. I've paired with small 8" sub for computer play back and it is fun to just enjoy listening for the sake of listening. Dumb? Maybe. Enjoyable? Yes! I've always loved a good silk dome tweeter. They can be crisp and musical without rasp or fatigue from aluminum domes. I love both types but I could probably listen to these P4s all day. They are so articulate without being tiring. I listened to Super Tramp, Pink Floyd, and Screamin' Cheetah Wheelies (dating myself) and I felt reenergized to listen to these familiar tunes. I might like these as much as my Paradigm Mini Monitors and old Boston Acoustics A60s. Those speakers hit a little lower but have similar detail and control. Love the bamboo wood cabinets. They are finished very well and look great. Really liking these. Update 9/22 Still finding the Tweeter detail so nice. If you prefer soft dome tweeters, this speaker is top notch. I find I'm enjoying relistening to some old favorites. This is the detailed late 80s sound that I love. Added a small sub to mine and they blended very well to sound like a high end stereo pair.
