Tweaks for AudioEngine2 Desktop System?

I have the A2's, and the best thing I did, was to replace
the speaker wire with my Supra Cable, and it made
quite a bit difference in sound.

Hi Headshrinker2, no they didn't, stock. I glued the Herbie's pads on with rubber cement ( my very favourite glue ).

FWIW the Visonik Davids aren't square and can be mounted upright, on their sides beaming up or on the wall with a matching bracket, and maybe that's why they don't have feet.

As always placement will make by far the biggest difference. Experiement with

- how far apart
- height
- toe in or angle up

Ideally you want them on stands so the tweeter is close to your ears and so they don't reflect sound off the desktop

Camelboy,
I think I will be making a modest upgrade in speaker cable as well.

Tobias,
The A2's do not have feet. Rather, there is a single large rubber pad on the bottom of each speaker.

Sunny_weather,
I would like to get the tweeters close to my ears, or at least angle the speakers towards the listener's head. Any premade suggestions to achieve this goal? Are there short speaker stands made to sit on a desk?

Short speaker stands would be cool. Market opportunity here. You could also tilt the A2s upward. You could buy a sheet of Herbie's Thick Grungebuster and cut pieces to fit under the front edge. Maple platforms à la Mapleshade might be another option. They would not even have to be three inches thick, I think.
