Customers are impressed with the R1280T Powered Bookshelf Speakers' sound quality, bass, and ease of use. Many appreciate the speakers' compact size and surprisingly loud volume, along with the included remote control and attractive design. Positive comments also highlight the speakers' affordability. The main drawback mentioned by some customers is the lack of Bluetooth connectivity.

    Good speakers but poor grill color choice

    Posted .

    The speakers are used on a TV to replace the tinny TV speakers. The line (RCA) outputs on the TV were used which required the volume control on the speakers to be at max. The vol control on the speakers have no stops! When the speakers are turned off, they DO NOT remember the vol setting. I just leave them on 24/7. The wood case is nice but the color of the grill (light grey) is a miss-match. I looked online for a brown or tan grill, but all that is available is a black grill directly from Edifier. The sound quality is much better than the TV speakers.

    Pretty solid for the price point. I bought these for my JVC record player with phono/RCA output, and these work great. Came with cables for RCA to RCA and RCA to Aux, along with speaker wire for the secondary passive speaker. These speakers do not support Bluetooth, so you would need another adapter if that's what you're looking for. Other than that, easy hook up to my preamp and record player and sounds great!

    These speakers have no business being as good as they are. The sound stage at ear height is just unbelievable. There's enough low end to convey the sound of bass, but you won't feel it in your bones. You'll want to get the separate sub for that. But every other aspect is fantastic. Grab these if you're mostly listening to music or video in a smaller space. I'd pass on these for gaming just due to the lack of bass punch.

    Got speakers for my sons bday as he is now into records. The record player I got him didn’t come with speakers. Saw these first in Amazon and then saw they were at Best Buy. Not only were these cheaper at Best Buy but the person that helped us also pointed out that he had them for his record player!! I had to remember how to set up speakers like back in the day but it was easy to setup AND THE SOUND IS AMAZING!!! So worth the price and then some!! Also if you are a total member like myself it comes with the warranty for 2 yrs if something happens

    I bought these for work based on the reviews for it. I love listening to music, watching YouTube, movies, and TV in my free time. I use a pair of older Bose computer speakers that cost almost $400 that I bought like 3 years ago. These things blow those out of the water. I'm telling you, if you're looking for a serious listening experience, this is it. The look great, good build, fantastic sound. For those of you worried about the bass, it's definitely there, but its no sub woofer.

    I never heard of Edifier brand until a couple years ago-a Best Buy rep who knew their audio showed me the difference between former top brand names that no longer have quality products and Edifier speakers. i was blown away by the sound quality, speaker construction, range of colors available and many different styles and sizes of Edifier speakers. Its why I bought this pair in white after buying another pair in bronze two years ago.

    Aesthetics, well they look awesome. They have dedicated bass and treble knobs, respectively. Comes with a remote control. Sound/Fidelity is AWESOME for the price. You can pay a little bit more and get the bluetooth model, this one comes with an aux cable. The Only reason I didn't give it 5/5 stars is the volume knob on the speakers themselves is not very precise; it has a nice tactile click to it as you turn it, but you have to play with it to get it the desired volume.

    This thing is worth the money. I bought a razer soundbar expecting it to be worthwhile and after hearing these speakers I instantly returned the soundbar and grabbed these puppies. Great range and if you aren't careful you'll upset your apartment neighbors!

    Considering I’ve been using TVs for monitors and using those internal speakers, this is definitely an upgrade. The sound is clear and bass is decent. It does the job.
