Audioengine HDP6 Passive Bookshelf/Stand-mount Speakers (Pair) (Satin Black)
COLOR
DESCRIPTION
Serious sound in a small, beautiful package
Bookshelf speakers offer you the flexibility to place them in tight spaces, but they typically don't have the same huge sound as floor-standing speakers. Not so with HDP6. These award-winning passive speakers are based on the same size, look, and signature sound as the high performance Audioengine HD6 powered speakers, so you'll be delighted to hear that they project a soundstage usually found in much larger high-end speakers. Beautiful and versatile, place them in an out-of-the-way nook in your living room, mount them in your home theater, or place them on stands in your den for high performance sound.
Wall or ceiling mount
HDP6 speakers include one standard 1/4" threaded insert on the bottom of each HDP6 cabinet for attaching a speaker mount or bracket.
Custom components
Audioengine designs and manufactures their own speaker drivers and other critical components. In other words, the HDP6 is not a "box-built" system with off-the-shelf parts, but includes custom-designed components constructed to our specifications. What Audioengine does not fabricate directly inside their factories they have made to their specific designs - parts such as circuit boards, transformers, magnets, and wiring harnesses, for example.
Driver designs
Audioengine uses audiophile-quality, ferrofluid-cooled silk dome tweeters with neodymium magnets. Silk tweeters hold up well under high power and the edge-driven design gives very smooth response. The woofers are Kevlar woven glass aramid composite with rubber surrounds. Kevlar is obviously very strong, which means the woofer retains its shape when being driven at high levels. The HDP6 woofers are housed in cast aluminum frames, which provide high rigidity and increased heat dispersion.

- Proprietary Audioengine 5.5-inch woofers are built on a solid diecast aluminum foundation. Their advanced underhung voice coils drive the motors, and are appointed with flared Kevlar cones and supple butyl rubber surrounds, which dissipate unwanted cone resonances.
- Ferrofluid-cooled silk dome tweeters are driven with neodymium magnets. These tweeters hold up well under high power and give a very smooth response thanks to their edge-driven design.
- Heavy duty 20mm MDF is used throughout the construction of the rigid braced cabinets. They're engineered with the proper stiffness, mass and dampness to clearly and accurately reproduce sound without creating parasitic resonances.
- Beautiful furniture-grade hardwood veneer cabinet finishes with sleek aluminum trim accents, available in Walnut and Cherry. For a look that blends more deeply into the background, choose a Satin Black automotive finish. Stylish grills magnetically attach to protect the drivers without diffracting or diffusing the sound.
- Innovative slotted rear bass venting ports eliminate wave turbulence, easily transitioning the low frequency energy from the speaker cabinet into your room. With this design, HDP6 delivers smooth, natural and surprisingly deep bass from such a small speaker.
