Q: Do these speakers include a remote control?
A: Yes, these speakers come with a remote control for easy adjustments.
Q: What type of speaker wire connection do these speakers use?
A: These speakers use an RCA connection for the speaker wire.
Q: How much power can these bookshelf speakers handle?
A: These Edifier bookshelf speakers have a nominal power handling of 70W.
Q: Can I connect to these speakers wirelessly?
A: Yes, these speakers have built-in Bluetooth for wireless connection.
Q: What is the size of the tweeter on these speakers?
A: The tweeter on these speakers is 3/4 inches.
Q: What is the frequency response of these Edifier speakers?
A: These speakers have a frequency response of 60Hz - 20kHz.
A: Not sure why Best Buy asked me to answer this question given it's two years old, but whatever. Yes, this can be connected to a desktop. Many motherboards have Toslink and 3.5mm options from the integrated sound card. This supports Toslink, 3.5mm, and composite (RCA) cables. Yes it comes with cables and manuals. Stands are available, but they can vary widely in price so do your own research on what you want for aesthetics and budget.
Q: can this be used with dell curved monitor s3222DGM?
A: Yes, but only if you configure your displayport or HDMI connection as the audio output. They connect to your PC via Toslink, 3.5mm, or composite cabling. The S3222DGM DOES have a 3.5mm audio line out. However, given sound degradation over multiple switching points, I recommend against this. A direct connection from your desktop's rear i/o panel (Toslink recommended) would be best to retain audio quality. It would also be easier to cable manage than a daisy chain from your monitor, but that's just my opinion.

Good replacement for 25 yr old speakers
I've been using an Altec Lansing Portable3 2.1 speaker set for over 25 yrs. They still sound good but I was ready for something new. The Edifier line looked popular and the R1850DB was the price point I was looking at. Features included everything I needed plus more. I added an optical adapter to my computer to get the best input for these speakers. My ancient turntable connected running through a preamp. Sound is very good with no distortion at my normal listening volume. When I compared it to my old set, I thought the Edifiers weren't as bright on the highs, but after more careful listening I think it is because they have more midrange than my old set. I'm not into room shaking base so these have enough for me. I did try connecting the subwoofer from my Altec set and it did work but I don't think I'll bother using it. I haven't used the Bluetooth feature. A couple minor complaints. I wish these had the controls on the side like some other Edifier models. On the back is just too inconvenient to use. The remote is not well designed. All the buttons are crammed together with lots of unused space that could have been used to provide more space between buttons. And why are there 2 up/down volume buttons? In summary, these are nice speakers. Are they that much better than some of the lower priced Edifiers to justify paying more? I don't know but I'm happy with them.

Fantastic PC speaker when paired with a good sub
I replaced a set of Logitech pc speakers and subwoofer with the Edifier R1850DB speakers and a SVS SB-1000 subwoofer and I couldn't be happier. When I bought the Logitech PC speakers some 10 years ago I thought they sounded pretty good, but now that I have heard what high quality speakers should sound like in my home theater it became difficult to continue using the logitechs. The reason I bought the Edifier R1850DB is because of the subwoofer output that allows you to use any subwoofer. I chose the SVS subwoofer because it is compact yet very powerful. I want to feel the bass in my chest. I know it's not the cheapest option, but I would rather have more subwoofer than I need and turn it down, than not have enough. The Edifier has a fairly neutral sound, but you can tune it to your taste with the a treble and bass knob located on the back of the speaker. You can run them without a subwoofer, but these speakers are meant to be enjoyed with a quality sub. They really shine when paired with a nice sub. I found that the bass really rolled off around 80hz, so you'll want to set the crossover on your subwoofer between 80-100hz. Plan to spend a chunk of time tinkering to get the system sounding exactly the way you want it. For the best sound quality, I recommend connecting these to the computer by optical cable. The sound quality of the new set up has exceeded my expectations and is a substantial upgrade over what I had before. If you aren't satisfied with the sound quality of your typical PC speaker offerings, then this could be your next step up the audio ladder if you're able to spend the extra money.
