    They were easy to set up, sound good, and do everything I expected. They sound quite good for the price point. Only thing I’d like to see is grounding for a turntable built into the powered speaker

    They look great the setup is easy and they come with a remote. The Bluetooth ones are worth it for me because I use my Phone a lot of the time to listen to music in my apartment. They fit really nice in all the different areas I have moved them to and they sound so good. Even the difference between being right in front of them and next to them, you can hear the directed audio coming at you and it sounds so good. I used them on my tv and they were so good. When I switched back to the soundbar after it sounded so dull and flat. I’m getting at least one more set of these for my apartment.

    For the price I think they are good speakers. Used the enclosed optical cable to hook up the tv, and picking up a turntable today. Upon first play I used my phone via Bluetooth and was not overly impressed, but then when playing music from tv it was like night and day. Bluetooth really kills the sound quality. Really looking forward to hearing records through these.

    Excellent! Great acoustics, Speakers enhance the sound of the Bose CD changer I connected to. I get a clean, crisp surround sound. They provide sufficient power for my living room. Ell worth the cost.

    Great sounding speakers that are suitable for smaller areas. Bluetooth works well and the optical connection vastly improves the TV audio! THREE THUMBS UP!

    I use these for my gaming speakers, I use Cider when listening to music and the quality is to tier with these. The Spatial Audio surprisingly works really well, while playing a fps you can literally hear the foot steps behind. 5/5 would recommend for gaming and listening to music. Get the edifier subwoofer

    I bought these to use for my gaming PC/music listening, but I was so blown away I replaced my TV’s soundbar with these. Doesn’t have the best bass but dialogue clarity is excellent and it has a bass port to add a subwoofer if you want. Great speakers

    Surprisingly crisp and clear sound. Great for the price. They were bigger than I expected and have decent sound. I have them hardwired to my PC via optical and bluetooth connected to my phone. Its really easy to switch between the two and my iphone picks them up right away. Hard hitting bass is missing and I am thinking about the subwoofer, overall good sound.

    great sound overall as a Computer speaker there's not enough RMS power generated to benefit from the full potential of the woofers (which are muddy in some cases) and tweeters. they're possibly very good Studio monitors for the price!! More amp power better sound across the dynamic range..

    Great shelf speakers for my computer setup, and enough bass that I don't feel as if I need to buy the add-on powered subwoofer that Edifier makes. Maybe if I were using it for my TV setup, but most games and music sound great. The remote is decent but nothing great if you were curious about that.

    Bought these as a cheap and quick solution for my computer lacking speakers. For the price, they are great. Nothing to blow your ears off, but more than enough to get music going through your living room. My townhome neighbor even complained about the bass one time...
