Andra 5 - EgglestonWorks Loudspeakers

The most advanced version of the loudspeaker that launched our company

Egglestonworks Andra 5

A Fifth Generation Original

Few names in audio are as iconic as the EgglestonWorks Andra. Since its introduction, the Andra has been at the heart of EgglestonWorks—earning Stereophile’s Speaker of the Year and serving as the foundation for an entire generation of designs. With each iteration, the Andra series has balanced innovation with deep respect for its lineage.

The Andra 5 represents the most significant advancement in the speaker’s nearly 30-year history. While unmistakably an Andra, every major element has been newly reimagined—from its custom-designed drivers to its reengineered cabinet and port structure. These changes aren’t just evolutionary—they reset the standard for what an EgglestonWorks defining model can be.

Externally, the Andra 5 refines the sculpted elegance the series is known for, with updated geometry and fit-and-finish details that emphasize craftsmanship without distraction. Internally, a brand-new crossover network and completely new driver set deliver precision, musicality, and depth in ways that surpass all previous models.

Born and built in Memphis—a city shaped by music—the Andra 5 carries forward a tradition rooted in real listening. From mastering studios to home systems around the world, EgglestonWorks speakers are designed not just to measure well, but to make music come alive.

The Andra 5 stands as the benchmark for EgglestonWorks—setting the standard by which all our speakers are measured, and representing the full expression of our commitment to music and craftsmanship.

Two generations of Andra – 19 Years Apart

The original Andra established EgglestonWorks as a brand serious about sound – a feat recognized by Stereophile Magazine with the cover and a Product of the Year award in 1997. We’ve done it again nearly 20 years later with Andra 5.

Both the reviewer’s long-term listening and John Atkinson’s measurements point to the same conclusion: the Andra 5 is a controlled, accurate speaker that delivers reference-level results when it is partnered and positioned with care—exactly the process great dealers already excel at.

Reviews

Stereophile | February 2026

Once I got to know and understand the Andra 5s, they rewarded me with deeply revealing listening, bringing forth interesting details from favorite tracks…EgglestonWorks’ stated goal is “to re-create a musical experience so vividly and accurately that it evokes the same emotion as a live performance.” The Andra 5s succeed at that if that emotion was captured in the recording.

No psychedelic drugs were needed; I closed my eyes and imagined a brightly colored dream-trip into the music. My reviewer mind shut off, and my music-lover senses took over. I took John Lennon’s wise counsel, turned off my mind, relaxed, and floated downstream. It was a glorious period at the end of the Andra 5 sentence.

The Andra 5 is physically striking, tall, and—the pair I had at least—colorful. They sound very good when optimally placed and driven with the right amplifier…they delivered the promised sound qualities, and the work was quickly forgotten. It was a fun ride.
