I've got a pair of these in Walnut(not that that makes any difference to the sound), and I flat out love them. Terrific pair of little desktop speakers, and that's what they are for, period. No earth shaking bass(3" mid/woofs can only do so much), just nice detailed sound, right in front of me while I use my laptop. Want better bass, add a sub(I did) and they are magic in this application. They won't challenge any serious stereo, hifi or audiophile gear, but that is not what they are for. They image well, and I did try these in a stereo/hifi type set up, and they do that well up to a point. But once you get them beyond a certain width apart, over 6ft, they sort of lose soundstage. And these aren't really room filling speakers. Ultimately I have them on the DS1 stands. What helped me choose them over the A2+ was the volume on the front(1), grills(2) and a headphone output/amp(3). And all those inputs, very versatile. Tried multiple sources and they all worked and sounded terrific. I shopped other speakers in this segment, but never even considered any others. Having a couple of pairs of other Audioengine speakers(HDP6 and P4's), I was very confident in the build quality, sound and value. These came out a bit costlier, but in the end, I was not disappointed. No comment on where you should buy them, and I did not get mine here. Just wanted to share the experience. No regrets and highly recommend these.
