I purchased these monitor speakers with low expectations several months ago. But their accuracy and sound clarity greatly exceeded my expectations. Details: I have a few seats on my network, at one of which I read. I had put in a SONOS system there, almost $one large. But it was temperamental and glitchy, and one speaker lost all treble. So, I was looking for a replacement, expecting about a $500 purchase. But $130? I have large Logan-Martins for AV: five star they are in spades. But these little guys? Maybe 5 x 10 inches in front. However, a lot of Edifier R1280T users gave convincing recommendations for these bookshelves, so I tried them out. They were packaged nicely, and the setup instructions were clear. Only one of the two speakers is powered and requires 110 V, That spkr drives the other via speaker cable. It also comes with a 3.5 mm TRS cable to connect to the source - here a high'ish-end ASUS gaming Windows 11-Pro laptop. The powered box also has a set of controls: bass, treble and volume knobs and on-off switch. There is also about six feet of wound-wire-tipped speaker cable, guessing 14-16 gauge. Since I have the speakers set about eight feet apart, I had to use another cable, 10 AWG. The sound has good dispersion and L/R separation. A surprisingly good bass for the size. These Edifiers are perfect for mellow jazz or acoustic background - and medium volume R&R. So-called "reference speakers" are not designed for high volume and this pair follows this axiom. I'd guess about 80 dB max. with full O/S and speaker gains. The frequency controls do not have a great dynamic range, but OK for their purpose. The product could come with a little longer speaker wire too. In short, fine speakers for their price and purpose. Note: I was neither compensated for this review, nor was I requested to provide it. I just like the product!

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.

Great sound! I was worried I wouldn’t be able to put each speaker far apart from each other but it worked out perfectly! Easy to set up as well!

Compact sized that fit nicely in the bookcases. I currently use them with my FFXIV-SQ-1500 and the sound quality has been great. Definitely a solid budget purchase if you don't need anything too fancy.

The white is a nice alternative to the other standard wood color pair I own. Same great sound.

The speakers are good for basic use. It was a challenge getting them to install - after that all was good. I had to remove a bogus driver program - and use Windows drivers then all was well. There are bass/treble balance buttons but they don’t seem to change the sound
