PSB Alpha AM5

Excellent powered speakers from PSB

This pair of powered PSB Alpha AM5 speakers is modeled on the company's popular Alpha P5 bookshelf speakers. They feature the same inverted design, with woofer on top and tweeter underneath, to keep sound properly in phase for frequencies that engage both drivers. They're driven by a built-in 50-watt amplifier that elminates the need for a bulky receiver or amplifier.

High-quality aptX Bluetooth streaming is built-in for easy wireless playback from a phone or tablet, and there are digital and analog inputs on the back of the active speaker for making wired connections to music sources. It's a space-saving way to get PSB sound without making room for a receiver or integrated amplifier.

Convenient connections

These speakers can handle a variety of analog and digital sources. If you're a vinyl lover, you can plug your turntable with moving magnet cartridge directly into the dedicated phono input on the back of the active speaker. There's also a 3.5mm auxiliary input for connecting portable audio sources. A mini Type B USB port lets you connect your computer, and a Toslink optical digital input can be used to connect a CD player or the output of a compatible TV.

Want more bass? There's a mono RCA output for adding a powered subwoofer of your choice.
