    Elegeant bass sound, easy to setup with a manual even a kid could read, and accessibe with remote and bluetooth settings. Easy to reccomend and hard not to buy, given the easy setup and strong sound profile of the speakers. Deep Bass pitches, Pronounced Mids, and Louder Highs. Sounds from the speaker fill up the room and produce amazing reverb and feedback.

    Really great speakers with flexible options when it comes to inputs and output, you have the ability to add a subwoofer to the configuration which is really great. The speakers come with a nice remote with makes changing the input so easy, it can change the volume, skip or go back a song and turn on or off the speakers. The speakers also come with adjustable bass and treble dials. Overall really great speakers.

    Pretty good choice for its price range. I use them on my computer desk and it works well. The sound quality is good and you can feel the bass even without a subwoofer. I have nothing to complain about it.

    Edifier R1280DBs: Perfect Pairing for Vinyl Lovers

    The Edifier R1280DBs speakers are an absolute dream for anyone getting into vinyl! I paired them with my entry-level turntable, and the sound quality is nothing short of incredible. The rich, balanced audio brings out the best in my records—whether it’s the deep bass or the crisp highs, every note feels alive. I went with the solid black finish, and it looks sleek and modern, perfectly complementing my setup. These speakers are also super versatile, with multiple input options like RCA and Bluetooth, making it easy to switch between spinning vinyl and streaming music from my phone. For vinyl enthusiasts, especially those with an entry-level turntable, these speakers are a game-changer. They’re affordable, easy to use, and deliver a sound experience that rivals much pricier options. I can’t recommend them enough!

    Found these on sale at my local Best Buy. After looking through many online forums, I decided these would be the best speakers for what I needed. After a few weeks with them I feel my purchase was entirely worth it. The sound is clear and crisp, I really enjoy the numerous inputs and the sub plugin in case I want to do that in the future.

    I purchased these Edifier speakers as a Christmas gift for my husband and he absolutely loved them. The sound quality is amazing for the price point, and the Bluetooth connectivity is easy and seamless. Excellent value and a great gift choice.

    So these are not for everyone, lets start there. Unless, you buy a Subwoofer as well. If you are in a small room, or apartment, these are fantastic. The sound quality is a lot higher than you will find in traditional "desktop PC" speakers by a fair margin. The highs are very crisp and clean. The bass is punchy but does not hit the lows boomy kind of sounds that you get from traditional PC speakers you find that come with a Subwoofer. If you add the Edifier T5 subwoofer to these, they are Unmatched in the their price point. Overall I am SUPER Happy with the way these sound out of the box for the space I have them in, and the addition of the Subwoofer I purchased to go along with these make these Top Notch. Highly recommend these.

    I am amazed at how well the sound is at both top and bottom for the price. At some point, I might add a subwoofer, but frankly, it doesn’t need it. The ability to pick out specific sounds in frequencies when gaming, or listening to music, made me realize just how much of an upgrade they were from my previous speaker system. I highly recommend them.

    Speakers work great with my onkyo cd Player. Easy hookup. No fuss with esoteric audio jargon and tech, just plug and play. The rep at Best Buy read my mind before my query was fully articulated, very knowledgeable and friendly.

    For the price you really cant beat it. Much better sound than youll get from a soundbar of a similar price. This version includes bluetooth support and additional support for a sub if you decide to add one in the future. Cant beat the value.

    Very happy with these speakers. For the money its a a great deal. I recommend them to anyone on a budget looking for somethjng with premium sound without the premium price of some of the big names like sony, sonos amd harmon kardon.
