Affordable Speakers that Sound Amazing
Color: Wood Grain
After having the same amazing Apople wired speaker/subwoofer set for 20 years, I made the decision to move to bluetooth bookcase speakers (eventually landing on the Edifier R1280DB pair). Set up was incredibly easy (connect the two speakers, plug in and push the source button until the blue light appears). They connected immediately with my new Macbook Pro laptop and the sound is, for me, perfect! Deep bass, a really nice range with the high notes and volume range that fills the room! So far, I have had no issues (buzzy sound, random connection drops, voices from beyond the grave, etc.). Add to that a price point that fits easily into my budget, and I think these are a definite recommendation! ... show more

Great bookshelf sized Bluetooth speakers.
Color: Wood Grain
As with ALL Bluetooth devices, you must have some familiarity with how Bluetooth works. Bluetooth devices need to seek out another Bluetooth device to complete a connection. I have no problem with connectivity to any device. The sound quality has been very good and is fully capable of filling a large room with quality sound even at higher volume settings. Attractive design and appearance that should fit with most decors. Rather uncomplicated controls. One small drawback is that the two speakers require a hardwire connection to connect the two speakers. These are not dual Bluetooth connected speakers so you MUST have a speaker wire connecting the two speakers as only on has Bluetooth connectivity. ... show more

Very impressive for the price/size
Color: Wood Grain
Before you read what I write, you need to know that sound quality matters more to me than most people I know, so I'm picky, but not to the level of an audiophile. I'm willing to pay a reasonable amount more to get better quality sound. These speakers are well constructed and sound good for the size and price. Their reproduction of music and dialog is clear. They are loud enough for our space (a medium-sized kitchen). They are easy to use with Bluetooth (we stream from an Echo Dot). They look really good. A few notes to consider: 1. These are powered bookshelf speakers and don't have the screw mounts that you will see with some satellite/monitor speakers. We mounted ours with VideoSecu clampijg bookshelf mounts, which worked well. 2. They come with all of the cables you might need. Those weren't necessary for us because we're streaming, but it is a nice touch. 3. If you're looking to be blown away by bass, you need to look for something else (larger). I found the bass more than adequate, but I know some prefer a resounding bass, and these probably won't satisfy those folks. Less than two months after we purchased these, they started to periodically drop the Bluetooth signal and, on one occasion, had some static. These problems were always resolved by unplugging the speakers and plugging them back in, but we did contact Edifier. They sent us a new set without any hassle (actually they sent them before telling me they would be replacing them). I think you can count on good service should you need it, and these come with a 2 year warranty. ... show more

with some tuning
Color: Wood Grain
I'm only docking one star because it would be nice to have a volume bar that shows it up n down. but other then that these are a great set of bookshelf speakers now let me tell you you will have to spend time tuning them correctly. an get a good set of speaker stands to have these beautiful speakers at ear level. they will fill a nice size room in say a nice apartment but will not be enough to fill a HUGE space. bluetooth connects easily the bass is clean not muffled or bottoming out if you tune them correctly. there weight is pretty low in general. there a very nice pair of bookshelf speakers for budget. ... show more

Fantastic sound! Best value small media speakers in this price range!

Review Image by digital_everest

I've had these for about a week and I'm very impressed! I'm an audio engineer by profession so I'm naturally hyper critical regarding speaker sound quality, balance, and tone. I have lots of experience with both similarly priced monitors this size and ones that cost10x as much, designed for critical listening SO, the verdict? Before I get technical, these1280DB speakers are simply SATISFYING and very PLEASANT to listen to for most genres of music, TV & movies and spoken content. Bass is natural, low mids are full and punchy, highs are crisp and most importantly, the mids are clear and detailed. They hold their own compared to $$$ Dynaudios! They are smooth like ribbon-tweeter ADAMs. Bose fans will probably not like these as the EQ curve is not over hyped in the lows nor brittle in the highs. Getting this sound along with 2 analog inputs, 2 digital inputs, bluetooth AND a useable on-board EQ AND a remote with a Mute button (!!) is simply unheard of at well under $150. If you are looking to upgrade your media center in a bedroom or small living space, listen to a variety of music and content for extended hours do not pass these up! Your won't find better with these features. I'm getting another set for the bedroom. TL;DR Are there better speakers out there? Absolutely. But not with this feature set and well planned multi-use I/O. If you like extremes (massive bass, head frying treble and volumes that will rattle your glassware, these aren't for you. If you like to be right there in the studio with Miles Davis recording Kind of Blue, hearing nuance and tone, these are for you. There is ZERO listening fatigue at up to 90% of max volume for hours! Fatigue is commonly found with speakers of this size (Bose) and class that commonly sound ok for about 15 minutes until your ears fight off the painfully hyped EQ curve by reducing your sensitivity to bass and treble, leaving a messy and tiring midrange. Rather, these Edifers can be placed in a small living room and sound great all over the room. Great for passive listening as well as focused listening. Excellent stereo imaging too. They don't get crazy loud (you can speak loudly over them at 90% volume - above 95% distortion starts to enter and your don't want that) but are plenty loud for small to mid size rooms. There's bass for sure, but they don't thump. And you shouldn't expect that for ~$130 unless you want fake fatigue thump. To get true thump you need a woofer cone at least 6" , pref 8". To outdo these speakers you're looking at $200+ and half the features. No, they are not flat but the inherent EQ curve works amazingly well. I can critically judge mixes on these. They sound natural in the bass, crisp but soft in the high freq and most importantly they have a CLEAR, nicely balanced low-mids to mids to high-mids range. And these are " computer speakers " per se! I would use these in a pro studio if I had to. And look, sound is extremely subjective. You'll get 100 different opinions from 100 ppl. But your can trust that all things equal, you will surely enjoy the sound of these. They have a tone to them that is just RIGHT, and not all wonky in some random freq area or phase issue like most other small format consumer models. Edifer nailed it with these and I don't know how they kept them under $150. Don't pass these up. They sound fantastic! From minute 1 to hour 12. ... show more

Awesome speakers for the price.
Color: Wood Grain
I just got this babies yesterday, i am trying them right now and ohhh yeah the sound is amazing, i might say that the best feature of this speakers in terms of sound is the rich bass, it is so delightful, depending on what kind of music do you listen (so far amazing sound with electronic, punk, and alternative generes). Love the manual bass and treble feature on the side, combined with the equalizer settings of my itunes delivers a very pleasant sound. Super easy to install it took me like 2 minutes. They have a great look and feel, you can use them with or without the front screens. I was indecisive between this and the R1700BT, the others probably sound better because they deliver more watts but this speakers fill all my needs. They give you all kinds of connections to take that sound out, RCA to RCA, 3.5 to RCA, fiber optic and the beautiful bluetooth feature that works pretty well so far. The speaker cable that connect both speakers its only 8.2 feet but you can buy longer cable to set your speakers on the desired distance in between. Another great feature is that you don't need to buy a receiver separately, this speakers are ready to use with any output device. Another feature is the remote control, you can turn on and off the speakers, change outputs, turn the bluetooth on and off even change songs, only downside it feels a little flimsy you can easily loose it or break it it is very small and thin. I use this to listen my computer music mostly via Bluetooth. You wont regret buying this, they worth every penny without breaking your wallet. What it stands out about Edifier is that offers a wide range of speakers for all the needs without compromising the sound quality. Go Edifier. ... show more
