#90 Audioengine HD5: $599.00 per pair Estimated Amazon eBay
Same family: the Audioengine HD3 (smaller bookshelf, rated 3.2/5), the Audioengine HD4 (smaller bookshelf, ranked higher, rated 3.2/5) and the Audioengine HD6 (smaller bookshelf, ranked higher, rated 3.3/5).
Pros: The largest model in the HD line above the Audioengine HD4: a 5” aramid woofer and 0.75” silk dome tweeter per side with 50W RMS per channel. Bluetooth with aptX HD, optical, RCA and 3.5mm inputs plus a variable line output for a subwoofer, with a remote.
Cons: No independent measurements yet, so its tonal balance and directivity can’t be compared with ranked speakers. Rated only to 50Hz, so deep bass needs a subwoofer, and its measured siblings the Audioengine HD4 and Audioengine HD6 sit in the middle of the powered rankings.
