On the bottom front side of each speaker is an air vent, that’ll pump out cool air while playing, which surprised us out at first, as the speakers were positioned behind our keyboard while we were writing. The front of each speaker is covered by a magnetic mesh dust cover, hiding the drivers. And because they weigh just 4 pounds and 3.4 pounds for the left and right speaker, respectively, the Audioengine HD3 is extremely portable, letting you take full advantage of their Bluetooth functionality. Measuring in at just 7 inches tall and 4 inches wide, you won’t have any trouble fitting these speakers on any desk. It’s also available in a Satin Black, Cherry, or High Gloss White finish to suit any home aesthetic. The pair we reviewed is covered in a quaint 80’s-style Walnut finish with a classy metal strip accenting each speaker. Well, with the Audioengine HD3, that’s not the case. Most speakers aren’t known for an attractive design.
