Audio-Technica AT-SP3X — Powered bookshelf speakers with Bluetooth, black

The AT-SP3X are Audio-Technica's answer to listening without a rack of separates: a pair of compact self-powered bookshelf speakers with everything built in —power stage, conversion and volume control— so they only need mains power and a source. Each cabinet carries a 76 mm woofer and a 27 mm tweeter, managed by an integrated DSP that splits the work and keeps the balance steady at any listening level.

Connection is handled two ways: by cable, through dual RCA sockets, or wirelessly over Bluetooth 5.3 with multipoint pairing, so two devices can be swapped without re-pairing. That makes them a natural partner for a turntable with a built-in phono stage, but also for a computer, a TV or a phone; the volume dial and the illuminated power switch sit on the front panel, within reach.

The matte black finish and 200 × 125 × 136 mm per cabinet let them sit on a shelf, a desk or beside the turntable without taking over the room. The set ships with an AC adapter and international plugs, a 2 m speaker cable and rubber feet; the AT-ST3 stands are sold separately if you prefer them raised.
