audioengine AEP4N P4 Premium Passive Bookshelf Speaker - Black : desertcart.co.uk: Electronics & Photo

Review: Quality is amazing. - So glad I went with the bamboo design. It's simple, elegant, and most importantly sounds good.
Review: Audioengine P4N PC-Lautsprecher vs. Edifier P12 Passive Regallautsprecher Da hier kaum etwas zu den Audioengine P4N Boxen steht möchte ich mal ein Statement abgeben. Ich suchte ein Paar hochwertige Lautsprecher für meinen PC. Da ich meine Musik seit Jahren am PC digital archiviere und bearbeite, höre ich hier natürlich auch viel Musik. Sie sollten auf den PC-Tisch passen und sozusagen für's Nahfeld (Sitzabstand 1 - 1,5 Meter). Leider verdienen viele heutige sogenannte "Regalboxen" diesen Namen nicht. (Bassreflexkanal nach hinten ausgeführt oder Downfire... No Go für wand nahe Aufstellung usw.) Meine Wahl viel nach langen Recherchen auf die Audioengine P4N PC-Lautsprecher vs. Edifier P12, welche ich zusammen bei desertcart bestellte. Die Boxen betreibe ich an einem Marantz M-CR612 Netzwerk CD-Receiver in neutraler Klangeinstellung. Die Edifier traf einen Tag eher ein und... Kurz & knapp Sehr, sehr basslaßtig, sehr dumpfer Klang. Optisch auch recht ansprechend. Einen Tag später die Audioengine P4N, eine Offenbarung im Klang!!! Warme, weiche Bässe ohne zu übersteuern bzw. Störgeräusche durch das Bassreflex-Prinzip zu erzeugen und kristallklare Höhen. Ich bin restlos begeistert von diesen kleinen Kraftzwergen. Ich möchte nochmal klarstellen, wir reden hier von akustisch anspruchsvoller Musikwiedergabe (auch bei höheren Lautstärken) aber nicht von Disco Beschallung. Mein Musikzimmer ist ca. 18qm und in einem Mehrfamilienhaus möchte man die Nachbarn nicht verärgern. Nachdem ich nun seit 2 Wochen im Audioengine P4N Sound schwelge mit z.B.: Pink Floyd "The Endless River in 24Bit HiRes." auch Klassik.. Orgelmusik... unglaublich die Basswiedergabe (auch wenn der Hintern nicht vibriert... Ha, ha) Die Höhen sehr präzise, die Gitarrenanschläge glasklar. Ich bin restlos begeistert. Diese Audioengine P4N ist kein Schnäppchen, aber jeden Cent wert. In Bambus haben sich mich ~100,- EUR mehr gekostet als die farblichen Varianten in Schwarz/Wiss. Sehr hochwertig verarbeitet (Wie schon von Anderen bemerkt). Der Hochtöner als Seidenkalotte und der Mittel/Basstreiber mit Cevlar-Membran. Die Bezeichnung Audioengine P4N als PC-Lautsprecher ist für mich irreführend. Diese kleinen Dinger verdienen (auch bezogen auf die Größe) ein Prädikat Hervorragend / Exzellent.

## 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.

*by S***L on 26 September 2011*

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 Amazon reviews...most reviewers sung them such high praise, I decided to take a chance on them, seeing that I had 30 days from Amazon 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!
