Hi, need some pro knowledge about the audioengine A5 speakers which in am going to connect to a audioengine DAC D1.Thanks

Could one of you pros give a reply

Ok. Any reason for this combination?
That should be close to 50K INR(+/ -). There are better combinations in that price bracket. What are you looking at? You would need to specify the source, files that you connect in your line. With more information, FM's here can give you inputs what you require.
You may also like to go through this http://www.custompcreview.com/reviews/audioengine-5-speakers-d1-dac-review/15438/ and then post specific queries that you have for the FM's here.

Thanks Sgmane I have got an Audioengine D1 DAC and I can attach it to a pair of monitors but was not so happy need some more info on how and what to buy.

What is that you are not "happy" with? Do explain. Most of the reviews inform D1 is good.
The A5 or A5+ pair well with the D1 not to leave alone A2 too. Do let us know, how you are connecting and various sources that you are using with. Iam sure with proper inputs you would get be more happy.

Will the audioengine 5+ be ok or should I go for 8"speakers also I will be connect thru my laptop since I have all my music there.

That depends on how much power you require. If you are a bass freak, always (or mostly) listen to high volume (also based on your room size), then it would be better to get an amp (stereo) match with the right speakers and you are ready to go.
Since you have D1, it would be useful to take a demo with A5+ and see if you like it. Else move to the other chain (amp+speakers+your D1).

If you go little down further, you would get lot of combinations for your wharfe (as you are inclined to it).
Some of them are listed below. Journey through them. You can decide.

wharfe 9.x series may not be available now. You can still check them. Or you can go in for 10.x series.

Not-to-leave: If you are open to other bookshelve's you can go through other posts in the forum and demo them too.

Once you are done after the demo, you can get them from hifimart here. Good prices delivered at your doorstep.
Your ear's are right judge. So demo them first.
