Hi,

looking for a good, budget 2.0 speaker set-up, primarily for using with my PMP. could anyone pls tell which one should be better among the two ? wont like to consider anything else from these ;)

1. Roland MA-15D -- am inclining more towards this one, as its got some extra features like bass-enhancement (though not which i would probably be using much), subwoofer out, ability to be used as second monitor-set for a surround sound system, etc. getting it for 11.5k from bajaao.com

2. Audioengine A2 -- another set of marvellous 'mini' speakers. not available yet. waiting time is more or less 1 month. price is 9.5k from the same dealer as above.

the dealer gave me a diplomatic kind of reply that both are very good. and am confused now. i would not like to stretch further than 12k.

kindly suggest friends....
 
^That MA15D monitors also feature 2 digital inputs which gives it a total of 4 inputs! Something not very common with active bookshelves in the 11k'ish price range. :P

Extra set of inputs is definitely a plus?

I was there at the meet. And they sure sound brilliant for the money. The DAC is "okayish" nothing to sing home about but it does the job well for the pricepoint. The sheer number of input and no obvious coloration apart from an obvious lack of bass (for Ekho's sake these are nearfield monitors!)

Bottom line, I loved them.
