  1. I would say the W5K and AD2K are both very synergy dependent. Both can sound bright and peaky with the majority of setups. Okay, the W5K is even more problematic. And then, as mentioned, you have the whole W5K fit issue. From owning the W5K, borrowing the AD2K a couple times, and hearing them both on several setups at meets, I've never heard the W5K approach the AD2K at its best. And at its best, *cough* reel to reel *cough* Balancing Act, it can compete with the best cans out there.

  9. Audioengine tends to have 25% off coupons around the gadget shows. Did for both CES and Macworld last year (in fact worked for months after) so January could be a good time to be considering. Codes tend not to be that difficult to figure out. MW 2009 was MW09, PowerBook Central 10% off was PBC10, Digital Home Thoughts 10% off was DHT10, for instance.

  19. Everyone I know who's happy with the A2s EQ them with 'puters. I'd say 'acoustic' on the iPod is your best bet, but you know the drill with the iPods EQ. That said the A5s are a huge step up and would fit on your desk (if I'm measuring your desk correctly). Back port firing, but I've bought the A2s for a friend and swapped them for A5s, which I also have*, after hearing both side-by-side. 'Huge' is not an exaggeration. I think the A2s are great speakers for the price, but the bloat is what I heard too. * House-sitting this month and have the A5s here and not sure why I really need anything else. As you probably know the A5s have iPod support with USB charging. Anyway, the Quads are better, but without the iPod support (surprisingly useful) and cheaper price.
