While I like both sets for different reasons, I tend to prefer the Audioengine A2+ for day-to-day music listening.Īn important computer speakers placement tip: make sure to angle the speakers so the tweeters are pointing directly toward your ears (Image credit: Future) 2. While the Audioengine A2+ has a refined 'hi-fi' presentation, the JBL’s sound is decidedly more neutral – something that’s not surprising considering it comes from the brand’s pro audio division. The JBL also has a mini-jack audio output, giving you the option to switch over to headphones listening if needed.Īnother key difference between the Audioengine and JBL speakers is their sound signature. A key difference between the two, aside from their very different looks, is the presence of a volume control knob on the front of the main JBL speaker (the one containing the system’s built-in stereo amplifier), a feature that enables easy and quick volume adjustments. Both provide hardwired RCA-type audio inputs along with a Bluetooth wireless connection (aptX Bluetooth on the Audioengine). The two computer speaker sets I use (and very much like) are the Audioengine A2+ ($269 / around £215 / AU$400) and JBL 104-BT compact reference monitors ($169 / around £135 / AU$253).
