Pros:
-Build quality and use of materials. The combination of walnut and the metal trim and volume knob on the front is clean and beautiful. I feel these punch above their weight here in particular
-Ease of setup/included accessories - these are ready to go out of the box, with all cables included except for the stereo RCA cables necessary to utilize those I/Os. Setup was a breeze and took all of 5 minutes.
-Connectivity - I use them with my home office setup so I connect them to my laptop via the included stereo mini-jack cable. But I’ve also paired them to my phone and nearby Peloton via Bluetooth with ease
Sound - there are incredibly balanced across the board, especially for the size. The bass response may not be as heavy as some would prefer, but I feel this is probably more of an outlier and I don’t consider this a negative since these have variable pre-amp outputs that can be used to add a sub
Cons
-None so far, these suit my needs perfectly

Decided to try the Sonos Soundbar but alas, don't have an extra HDMI port in my dock or MacBook. Airplay was finicky at best to the point of going back to the Sonos.
Read about the A2+s on various review websites and they were highly regarded. I liked the fact that I could connect either via the headphone jack or via Bluetooth. I decided to go for this version since it has the volume knob on the front and well, shallow as it sounds, I like the wood finish.
I was concerned about the size as I don't have enough room to side of my dual 32-inch monitors. But I decided to lay them on their sides and they are perfect size that way -- not too wide so my monitors aren't obstructed. They aren't too deep so still plenty of room in front of them for my keyboard and trackpad. And height -- plenty compact (much more so than the relatively small Sonos Soundbar).
Setup was a piece of cake ... as was Bluetooth pairing. At first, I wasn't blown away with the bass -- particularly compared to what you can get with other bluetooth speakers like Sonos and JBLs etc. But that was using Pandora as a source. When I started playing using the Apple Music app and the built in equalizer to bump up the bass, they really came alive. But what gets me is the sound stage is just mind-blowing for the size of these speakers. Even though the edges are 8-12 inches from the edges of my monitors, it feels like the entire 5-foot span of my desk is covered.
I love classical music to alternative rock and some (by my standards) edgy Guns N Roses etc and everything has sounded great. If you love classical music (my predominant genre), you will REALLY appreciate the details from the mids and highs.
If your primary listening source is Pandora where you can't optimize the treble and bass to your taste, you might be disappointed. However, if you go with Apple Music (and would assume Window's media player which has the same ability to adjust the sound parameters), you should really find these up to you listening standards... as long as those listening standards don't necessarily include hip hop and Rap which is designed to make your whole body feel the vibrations.
As I said, I currently have these lying flat on their sides. I did order the 15-degree risers that are recommended for these speakers and waiting for those to be delivered any minute now and suspect that will make these sound even better.
I wanted good pure sound but didn't want something that was going to take up what little remaining real estate I have on my desk. These definitely fit my needs. I'm in a relatively small room and I am sitting RIGHT in front of them so not sure if these would be as satisfying if I was using as room speakers.
Are these worth the extra money compared to the A2+? I don't know. Supposedly they have an upgraded DAC and Headphone amplifier. Plus the nifty little volume knob on the front. If you are on a budget, then the A2+ might be just fine for your needs.

I saw the HD3 and started reading the specs for it. It had bluetooth and a built in DAC. The best part was that it wasn't any random part, but actually from their popular D1 DAC along with the BI bluetooth receiver crammed into these speakers. I was a bit amazed and it would save me the hassle of purchasing another DAC. Another plus was the size of these speakers would fit great on my desk. I ended up purchasing them and when they arrived, they looked stunning. I plugged them immediately into my pc via the provided usb cable along with the extra bass switched on. I was pretty surprised at the audio being pumped out from these small speakers. Music sounded crisp and smoother compared to my swan m50s. I admit the swan m50s sounded great but the HD3 had that spark that was missing from the swans. I'm not really a bass head and usually turn it down often but the bass from the HD3 will do the job. It will give you that thump but just don't expect anything crazy, especially if you're playing a bassnector song and expect the floor to reverberate. However, I was a bit curious as how would the subwoofer offered by audioengine would sound. I ended up getting the S8 and then paired it with my HD3. The way to do it was to have the cable plugged in from the output of the HD3 and into the input of the S8. Once these were paired, I switched off the extra bass mode on the back of the HD3 and then played a song. Holy smokes,this definitely made the HD3 shine even more so. Music sounded incredible and I find myself listening more music through the speakers than my headphone setup. I would suggest that if you're able to dish a bit more, the S8 sub is worth it. It just brings more life into the music. Hopefully this helps people in deciding to pick these up.
tl/dr: Awesome set of speakers. Sounds even greater when paired with an S8 sub from audioengine.

Llevado por las buenas reviews que había visto, me decidi por los HD3... esto no es otra liga. Es otra galaxia.
La definición de cada nota y de cada instrumento, cómo se llena la habitación de sonido... me cuesta explicarlo con palabras. Es impresionante.
Y encima ocupan poco.
Soberbios.
