Q: Can I connect these speakers to my TV using an optical cable?

A: These Edifier powered speakers have optical inputs, offering flexible connection to TVs.

Q: I ordered these speakers with understanding that they were wireless, but there are wires b/w two speakers...am I missing something?

A: The speaker with the knob controls is an active speaker that houses the amps for both speakers. Consider this as the base speaker. Because it supplies power to the other speaker which is passive, they must be connected together to send the power and signal. This unit does however have bluetooth which IS a wireless system. Hope that helps clear it up!

    They bump for the price!

    These things are pretty incredible for just over 100 bucks. Small yet powerful and they actually have good base for their size. The build is also super nice and clean. I am impressed and super happy with these speakers.

    Wow. Incredible sound for $149…

    First & foremost, I’ll address what is most important from a pair of Bluetooth speakers: The sound. Wow. The treble & bass knobs really help tune that perfect sound quality. Secondly, they are simple. They connect quickly and without issues. I also love that they have a convenient little remote that I lay on ly bedside stand. Id say these are perfect for a small bedroom, office, garage, or to use as desktop speakers (if you have a large desk as they’re not exactly small). Definitely a good buy!
