Customers are saying

Customers love the R1280T Powered Bookshelf Speakers for their amazing sound quality and clean bass. Many appreciate the speakers' ease of use, perfect size for desks, and appealing appearance. The inclusion of a remote control is also a favorite feature. The only drawback mentioned is the absence of Bluetooth connectivity.

    This is an amazing addition to my desk setup. High ends are crystal clear while mids aren't mudded out. The low end may not be as pronounced, this is a 2 speaker system after all, but they are still clear without any distortion. Overall, a great set of speakers.

    Great speakers. I got these for my newly purchased record player and have seen a bunch of reviews on amazon saying these things were fantastic for that so I went to Bestbuy to purchase. Glad I did as they are awesome. Great sound quality and are powered so you do not need an external amplifier.

    I was in the market for bookshelf speakers for my dual monitor setup and I saw that these had good reviews. These reviews can be trusted! I am blown away by the fullness of the sound (bass, treble, mids, highs). At first I was disappointed thay I did not get them on sale. But after hearing them I don't mind paying full price! They are on par with Bose which cost twice as much or more.

    These speakers have clear natural sound. They accurately reproduce sound without adding tonal "coloring" that would need to be removed through EQ. Bass response is good for such a small speaker but don't expect it to boom like a 12" sub woofer. I am completely satisfied with these for my use on the desktop.

    Purchased these speakers about a month before this review. For the price these are Amazing sounding speakers that just work. No extra layers to it. they work and sound great. it has 2 spots for input via aux and i have my laptop and desktop connected to the speakers. no need to click a button to switch the input, just press play and it will automatically switch.

    Redid my office and included these. They work great and look good. The equalizer is fine on the side, but i have mine connected to a DAC unit which is where all the adjustments are done. Overall, a great $100 speaker set

    These speakers replaced an old 2.1 system. What a fantastic sound from $100 speakers! It has been a long time since I've listened to music from my computer as the old one's were dying for a long time. Do not hesitate with these even though there is not a dedicated sub-woofer.

    Amazing sound. Very clear, crisp, and rich. Bring an overall great sound to any space. I have switvhed them between office spaces which are considerably different sizes and it has filled both spaces with phenomenal sound. I use them for movies, games, music.
