Overview
Audioengine packs a six-inch front-firing woofer into a sealed enclosure for desktops and gaming rigs where floor space is tight. Dual analog inputs, a crossover knob and a phase switch tune it, and the included wireless kit removes the audio cable.
A compact sub with wireless included makes desk setups cleaner and bass fuller. Its small driver cannot move air like a large theater sub, so big rooms will want more.
Who it's for
Desktop speaker owners, gamers and small apartments get a sub that tucks under a desk. Large living room theaters should choose a bigger driver.
Pros and cons
- Wireless kit included
- Compact sealed enclosure
- Crossover and phase controls
- USB charging port
- Small driver limits deep bass
- Not for large rooms
- Heavy for its size
- Mono output only
Performance notes
A sealed box gives tight, quick bass rather than the boom of a ported design. The crossover sets where the sub takes over from small desktop speakers, and the phase switch aligns timing. Auto standby powers it down when no signal arrives.
