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.

    Amazing speakers get very loud, works with an audio interface with the right connections I also was able to connect my Bose headphones by buying a 2.5mm female to 3.5mm male adapter for the jack,

    I purchased these speakers for my new turntable and they are perfect for the room we have it in. The sound is crisp, loud, and has great quality. The value you get for the amount of money I spent was incredible! A must buy.

    Just believe me that these speakers sound what they look like. That’s all. Since they are powered, they pack a punch with a built-in little amp. That means you will hear a GOOD bass there. I connected a Belkin Airplay 2 receiver with the 3.5mm jack-to-RCA cable included and now it’s an intelligent speaker in my Apple HomeKit environment. My living room is small so these are more than enough! I totally recommend these to anyone. Besides, it’s only $99. Just return them if you don’t like them, which I doubt.

    wanted to finally upgrade our record player and couldn’t really decide on what speakers to use. i hear a lot about how these are good beginner speakers so i decided to buy them and literally have no bad experiences with it. the sound quality is amazing and super easy to set up!

    Was skeptical about how these speakers would do considering the price for them. However, you are getting great quality speakers for a great price. I absolutely love my speakers. They sound great with my record player and even just being hooked up to my laptop.

    I love these speakers, very classic and simple. Sound is good, we appreciate the remote too. Aesthetically coordinating with the record player vibe too.

    Great sound. Reasonable price. I needed a new cord to hear clear sound between the two speakers, but it now works with no issues.

    Great sound for the price. During the day, these are the speakers for my home office to sue for focus music and zoom calls. In the off hours, they get used for playing all types of music. The only area they struggle for me, slightly, is with directionality. If they aren’t pointed towards you, the sound quality tapers off. I wouldn’t use these to fill a large room with good sound, but it’s just right for a medium sized home office

    For the price you can't beat the sound quality and the incredible construction of these speakers. My audio on my PC has never sounded so crisp and clean.

    Really a great speaker system for beginners/ novices especially. Excellent quality and good value for the price. They are slightly bulky, but not unmanageable. Very simple to set up, sound clarity meets and even exceeds expectations

    Replaced a 2.1 setup with these. Great sound across the spectrum - clear highs/miss/bass. No muddy base that you typically hear on a dynamic 2.1 system in this price range.

    Blown away by the sound that comes out these things! Originally I was gonna pick up some audio engines which are 3x the price of these but with all the positive reviews I wanted to give these a shot. No regrets here.
