In my office (not the main studio) I have Edifier monitors w. 4 in. woofers. Great, but missing low-end. The T5s add this very nicely. Perfectly suitable to volume levels in a medium space. My Event Opal frequency tuning kit shows a pretty flat response for the result without much teaking. Most of all, it sounds great when my partner is out and I can blast it a little. I think these are a terrific value.

If you have edifiers, GET THIS. I had to return due to my speakers not getting loud, but before that, this filled in the sound you are missing. A special sound that reaches deep into the ear drum. Even in an apartment, i was able to fill the room with low volume bass through the tone control. Also being in an apartment, i wS able to put it full volume and knock everything off of the upstairs, downstairs, left, and right neighbors walls. Idk if this sub can be beat at this price point

I bought a set of Edifier R1280DBs for my pc speakers and have really enjoyed them. My son bought the same set for his pc and not long ago bought this sub. Of course, I immediately thought, why didn't I think of that? Great minds think alike... or something like that. I added this sub to my setup and have been really happy with the sound difference. I use my pc for pretty much everything, I listen to music, play games and watch most of my tv and movies on my pc. Hey, my office is comfy! If you really want to see the difference these make, either play Starfield and hear the booming sound of space or play some BTO up real loud and feel the earth move under your feet (see what I did there)!! Good price for a quality product!

Alright - where even to begin? I've been an enthusiastic Edifier products user over the past two years, currently owning 5 different models of their powered bookshelf speakers. As of late, I've been eyeing compact subwoofers in the 8" range that I could add to my particular system to enhance the lower bass response. I am (was) particularly searching out inexpensive, yet competent 8" subwoofers to place under my computer desk since that's where I have my active bookshelf speakers positioned. Now to be fair, there are several outstanding (other brand) 8" active subwoofer models on the market, but those models are priced higher - usually between $299 and $499 - and as I discovered, you tend to get what you pay for in most cases! There is just 1 review on You Tube of the Edifier T5, and that one was done by Zeos Pantera, who I enjoy watching for a number of reasons. So I took a chance and ordered the Edifier T5 on Amazon. My reasoning in choosing the T5 (initially) is that I had previously also owned the Edifier S350DB 2.1 system and the T5 is basically the same woofer as in that system (albeit configured differently). OK - so the T5 arrived - it looks great and definitely has a nice, weighty (and solid) feel to it (which is good). In the rear you have both RCA inputs and outputs (as opposed to many subwoofers that have only RCA inputs) - which was very important to me, but I soon came to realize that I had misconceptions about that aspect of the T5. In addition, it has one of the smallest (if not the smallest) enclosure that I've seen on 8" subwoofers. You see, in the "other" more expensive subwoofers I alluded to above, they also offer both RCA inputs and outputs - but (and this is a huge "but"), in those cases you could use any powered speaker, run the music source cables (like from a Preamp or DAC) to those subwoofers, and then use additional cables attached to the "output"connectors of the subwoofer to run to the RCA inputs on your powered speakers. What occurs in "those" (a bit more expensive) subwoofers is that you can then choose a select crossover frequency (usually, 60, 80, or 100 Hz) to filter out the bass - meaning, that anything below those frequencies (you choose one) would be handled by the subwoofer, whereas all the frequencies above would be channeled to your speakers. This obviously takes the pressure off the 4", 5", or 6" woofer/midrange drivers in various bookshelf speakers and allows them to effortlessly focus on mid-bass and midrange frequencies. The Edifier T5 subwoofer, however, does "NOT" filter frequencies like the more expensive versions do (i.e. Emotiva and Presonus). With the T5, the RCA inputs and outputs are just for pass-through (nothing is filtered or channeled between subwoofer and speakers). So in effect, if you try and connect your T5 to your active speakers this way, all you are doing is reinforcing (amplifying) the lower frequencies that your active powered speakers are trying to handle also. Now do note that the T5's do have a knob ranging from 50-60 HZ t0 160 HZ and if you set this to a desired low frequency cutoff, what this means is that the subwoofer will only reproduce the low frequences below the cut-off you select. However, again - the full frequency response is still channeled to your main active speakers. So choose your low frequency cutoff wisely here so you don't double-up or reinforce low frequencies that your active speakers already product. Alright, so how did I use the T5? After trying the method above - and after I came to find out that no filtering takes place and the signal is just a straight pass through - I connected my Edifier R1850DB's bookshelf speakers using the dedicated 3.5MM subwoofer output on the rear of those speakers. I used a 3.5 MM to RCA Male set of cables, connecting to the T5. Now on the rear of the T5 is a knob showing bass frequency filter settings ranging from 50 to 160 HZ. I set this to between 70 and 80 HZ (everything in between the 50 to 160 Hz area are not marked specifically - there are just a bunch of notches, leaving you to try and decipher what is what). Remember, you get what you pay for here. Well, so how does it perform? This T5 does best as an under-the-desk unit, connected to desktop speakers - let's say in a desktop computer scenario. I first tried the T5 in the living room and to be honest, it did not have the impact one would expect when watching dynamic movie scenes, and at times you'll hear "chuffing" coming from the port. However, when I transferred it upstairs to under my computer desk - attached to my Edifier R1850's - the combination provided a fairly nice balance (once I settled on the right frequency range for the T5 to handle). Now here is a question that nobody has been able to provide an answer to this date. To begin with, since the T5 is an Edifier product, let's arbitrarily use the Edifier R1850DB's as the bookshelf speakers for the purpose of this particular question (since they have a subwoofer output connection in the rear of the active speaker). When connecting the 1850's to the likes of the T5, do the active speakers automatically "recognize" the subwoofer and then send low frequencies (below a certain point - and what is that particular frequency?) to the subwoofer? Or, does the subwoofer handle just a certain frequency range (below 160 Hz), thereby just reinforcing the same or similar frequencies that the speakers are handling? No one could ever answer this and I've asked this a million times on various forums. Edifier was remiss in not providing this information with the T5. It would most certainly be nice to know that a speaker will automatically recognize the subwoofer (when connected) to a model that has a subwoofer output on the rear of the desktop model. And furthermore, it would be nice to know that when recognized, what frequency do the bookshelf speakers automatically select to filter to the subwoofer? Sound quality-wise, do keep in mind that we're dealing with an 8" woofer here - nothing revolutionary. It can certainly add bass, but I must confess that the quality of this bass and extension is limited to around 38 hz. I also have a 10" subwoofer by a well known audiophile brand (with RCA inputs and outputs that provide low frequency filtering and channeling) and the quality of bass from that unit is phenomenal and well balanced with any bookshelf speakers you add. So in the end, for a super budget 8" subwoofer model, the T5 is a quality product - but then you do get what you pay for and for around $130 USD, there isn't anything revolutionary about it. You may be asking, "well, why not then just use the 10" subwoofer you also own?" Quite simple - it's much too large and my knee hits it every time I go to sit down by my computer. Thus my search for a smaller 8" model. I'll be keeping the T5 because I believe it does quite well from 40Hz on up and at $130, it is an ideal match for many of the powered Edifier speakers. I do intend to getting one of those "other brand" 8" subwoofers (either a Emotiva or Presonus) that features an actual crossover filter that channels anything above the selected low frequency cross-over point on the subwoofer to the active bookshelf speakers.. In the end, how we use our audio products becomes subjective and no two folks will agree. If you're looking for a serious low-frequency contender in the compact 8" subwoofer arena, the T5 just may do - but for others, it may not provide what you are looking for in terms of general low bass reinforcement - but at least you won't be paying an arm and leg. I'm currently actively using it - it does the trick - but I do know there may be better choices out there if you are willing to spend a few hundred dollars more. I did edit this review to update my assigning it 4 stars now (up from 3). And I am currently using the wonderful PreSonus Eris E5 XT 5.25" Near Field Studio Monitors. Using the Edifier T5 with these monitors provides a nice balance and I've been quite happy with this match-up.

I bought the Edifier 1700BTs speakers a few months ago for my desktop in a large bedroom and really liked the sound profile but felt like it needed more bottom end to fill out music. I went cheap and bought the monoprice 8" sub on sale for $50, seemed well reviewed. While I liked the added bass the sub had an annoying hum to it that I could not ignore any longer so when the Edifer T5 went on sale for black friday I jumped on it. All I was aiming for was a nice quiet sub when no music was playing. I hooked up the T5 and sure enough, dead silent with nothing playing. Then I started playing music, and I was instantly aware of all the sound I was missing with the monoprice sub. The Edifier T5 has much tighter and punchy sounding bass than the monoprice sub and better articulation at higher frequencies. The monoprice extends just a little deeper, but it's loose and muddy, even after turning the volume way down and playing with the crossover range. Overall this is a great sub for those looking for a budget sub for their desktop setup. I'm sure it pales compared to more expensive offerings, but realistically the next level worth buying is >$450 from what I've read, not in my budget. I'm very happy with the sound for music and gaming.

Great sub woofer

I must start by echoing another users review --- "Rca ports can't handle good cables". I had the exact issue as he did - I started with my own RCA cables that are a bit snugger than the supplied cables. I went to re-route the cable around a desk leg and part of the subwoofers RCA port pulled out. It was a simple matter of re-inserting it, but something I've never noticed with other gear in the past. The unit is slightly bigger than I was expecting - this isn't a tiny bookshelf sized sub-woofer. If you're tight on space, check the dimensions before ordering. The install is simple and the extra punch of the sub on my PC is much appreciated ( i have this sub matched with some basic Edifier bookshelf speakers. ) For me the sub wasn't an essential at full price - but I purchased it when on an Amazon prime sale which made it an easier buy.
