    Went for Edifier MR4 since my soundcard has got TSR outputs for monitors. Very decent for the price. Had a chance to compare them with Fluid Audio F4, Fluid are flatter and has got better separation but Edifier is pretty close, especially if placed correctly.

    The R1280Ts, paired with the T5 Sub from Edifier, sound good for the price. I use those with the Topping E30. I spent 330€ for everything and I'm really happy with this choose.

      Unfortunately for Us or other people from 3rd countries, 300 something $ or € is what most of us made in a month.
      Yes food price, gas price, or real estate price here is lower. but sometimes I feel jealous to 1st countries with extremely cheap electronics and vehicles so you can have better lifestyle.

    My exploration and research into Edifier started with 1280T, and then it led into another level up, another level up, and I ended up getting S2000MKIII speakers.
    After about a year, Optical input died, and after contacting Edifier, I was shipped brand new set which works great on my gaming setup

    Wow that comparison is exactly what I searched for, unbelievable lol. 1 question tho 😅
    I'm looking into these two options to replace my Logitech Z-2300 2.1. Is it possible to use the Subwoofer of the Z-2300 with the R1280T or MR4? (I read somewhere that it would work safely if I split the audio signal with a Y-adapter connected to my PC or sth like that?)

    • @jstevo1349
      @jstevo1349 Рік тому +1

      the r1280t has a sub out so you can go from speaker to sub. the mr4 doesnt so you will need a splitter from the source that goes to both

    Thanks for the video. If I may ask an off-topic question: could you do a tutorial on improving Wifi signal strength on Linux? For some reason, I watch the signal go from strong, to weak, to strong again, to disconnecting entirely, then reconnecting right away....very frustrating. I have noticed this issue on Parrot OS, Mint, Lubuntu, etc. Thank you again.

    Do I even need external speakers ?
    I currently use my notebook's speakers. Plus can use my wired Koss The Plug earphones if I need higher quality (music, some movies).
    The notebook speakers are fine for speech (youtube, videoconferencing, ...).
    And they take zero taking care of.
    Should I buy EDIFIER R1280DB, to be put onto my desk ? How will they compare with Koss The Plug earphones sound quality? Will I be happy?

      Because most of the people that buy speakers around 100-120$ don't use a 300$ DAC to power them up ? This is kind of stupid to do such tests , people buy budget speakers for a reason I'm laughing so hard from tests of 50-120$ speakers that are tested with DAC's that are at least 3times more expensive than the speakers itself , If I have a 120$ budget for speakers I'm sure I don't have a 300$ lying around for a good quality DAC to power them up , ill use them to connect to PC or mobile.

    👍for the comparison demonstration of the speakers. MP4 sound more voluminous and cleaner, very close to the original, just what you need for your computer. I did not like the sound of the R1280TS at all, they sound deaf and muddy, there is no channel separation, as if the speakers were bolted to the trash can. The fact that they have a bit more bass doesn't make them any better, they are bass heavy, so they have a dull and muddy sound.🪣🔉🎶
