AudioEngine 2 vs AudioEngine5?


Greetings everyone,
Based on feedback from an audiophile family member and strong reviews, I am considering picking up a pair of AudioEngine powered monitors for my desktop.

Any thoughts on the AE2 vs the AE5? Have Audiogon folks been happy w/ AE2's on their desktop... or do most go for the AE5's?

Thanks.

I've had a pair of AE2's for a year now and really like em. Decent bass and sound, in general, for a desktop speaker.
Just picked up a pair of the AE2s from here for a good price. They are fantastic for a desktop setup.
