    Love this brand.

    My second set of Edifier speakers (the model just under this model is hooked up to my turntable): they just sound great and look so good. Plus they got nice connection options, integrated Bluetooth and a bass/treb adjustment to help fit the sound to the room. These are Bluetooth connected to my Epson projector and work flawlessly. (I’m still moving in) in the picture you can see no cables; just the power wire and the wire running between the two speakers. Really reduces cable clutter.

    Sounds great,used for Turntable setup

    Very happy with purchase. Got a turntable for first time and decided to go active speaker route. Didn't want high end expensive speakers. I believe you can spend less and sound almost as good for half price. From reviews of this this brand this is it. And it does sound great. Bass is pretty good but wouldn't mind getting the sub. Got this specific model for that option. Like the two lines, have them hooked to pc and i can switch between the 2. Also has Bluetooth but haven't used much yet. The speakers themselves are beautiful. I like the woodgrain and the vintage styling. Knob controls are nice. Overall satisfied with purchase.

    Very Nice, What I Expected for the Price

    These powered Bluetooth speakers replaced an old compact Tivoli Audio system in my relatively small office at work. Pros: These produce deeper and more well-rounded sound than my old system. You can play from a phone, ipad or other device via Bluetooth or a wired connection. There are inputs on the back for two different left/right channel devices and a subwoofer output. I like a fairly full bass presence and am considering adding a lower-cost Polk Audio or Yamaha sub. You can adjust treble, bass and volume via knobs on the right hand side for simple EQ capability. It was very easy to connect devices via Bluetooth. The remote control works and is simple and easy to use. Cons: the cable connecting the speakers is fairly thick and has a proprietary plug - don't lose it! The sound quality is a little better via a wired connection than Bluetooth. Though sound quality is good for the price, some may complain about sound accuracy or the quality of the lower range. To understand the sound quality, I played a few Rush songs, Black Sabbath's Heaven and Hell album, Jimi Hendrix Experience's Bold as Love album, some Chopin classical piano music, and Miles Davis' Kind of Blue - via an audio cable and Bluetooth. If you crave clarity, play via a wired connection. You'll notice the difference in sound accuracy vs. Bluetooth, which is not bad but a little less clear and and little more 'muddy. Also, play with the on-board or device-based EQ, which can make a real difference. Takeaways - for a small to medium-sized office, bedroom, dorm room or apartment living room, these are nice-sounding speakers for the price. Bluetooth is very easy to use; you'll appreciate somewhat more accurate music via a wired connection. Consider a subwoofer if you want a more well-rounded bass presence. If you're fine with a very good budget solution, they're great. If you want more accurate and robust sound quality, you can get that in other powered Bluetooth speakers...but be prepared to spend a fair bit more on something like Klipsch's slightly larger powered Bluetooth reference speakers.
