    Really good speakers. I’ve seen some comments with people saying they look gaudy but I don’t agree. Edifier make a lot of wooden classic style speakers so this is just a different look for them. Works well. Drivers seem good as I’d expect.

    Edifier have great products for reasonable price. I recently got a deal on S1000 MK II bookshelf speakers for 210 USD. It was a huge upgrade from the R1280T i had for a while. Can't even compare the too, it sounds amazing.

    Im still using my old bose soundlink v2 but shes dying on me :c looking to grab new speakers for my computer and man its so hard since most cost a fortune and some people suggest a soundbar and some people say soundbars are terrible. Some say get speakers but then they list all this equipment you need for speakers to sound good and it gets confusing.
    For metal/bass heavy edm music(hardstyle etc) i think the bose sounds good but i have nothing to compare it to, if you happen to know, are these better? And if they need a subwoofer for proper bass instead how much extra cost does that add. Final question, the wattage for sound, is that how much power it uses to run? Upgrading my office and debating if i need to add a 2nd circuit

    After trying G2000 and falling in lovr with edifier sound (music eq) ive started day dreaming about this, only things its missing is optical connection for true 24bit / 96khz more tjen 1/2mb transfer rate once Ldac is outaded and replaced by a newer codec that can handle true High res without capping it at 990 kbps like ldac does. I cant stop dreaming about this speaker only thing im worried about is the bass / if its punchy as it doesnnt have dynamic or music preset and im not sure of monitor and classic eq will suffice for edm/trance music but low volume usage sounds ideal fo4 late night use.

      A2 is $100 cheaper and a couple inches smaller. Maybe a little better for a more space conscious setup? Woofers are the same size, but tweeters are smaller at .75" vs 1.25" and 10w less total power. Wonder how this impacts overall sound quality.

    The price makes no sense for desktop PC speakers. Sure, you can buy quality studio grade monitors. So get some?
    But in most cases you need just "good enough". Not flawless. 15 or so years ago I randomly bought a few budget PC speakers looking for something usable. And eventually by pure accident I got AG Neovo ones for less than 30EUR which happened to be surprisingly good for the price. Close to "JBL quality" in that market. They are a bit sensitive to human capacity, get easily excited, but as long as your hands are 20+cm from them they are fine. And the price? Still using them. RGB, wtf...

    • @BarbuMateescu

      @vensroofcat6415 3 місяці тому

      @@BarbuMateescu back then JBL was around 100EUR. While serving roughly the same market. So I put them in the same category there, right?
      And I struggle to recall a moment in time when Edifier has been premium in audio. It has been in the market for 20+ years. And more like cheap entry wood desktop speakers. There's certain group of fans that consider speakers must be those wooden boxes. I get the vibe. But there certainly are other ways and it's a lot more about quality parts and materials. Maybe they have grown. But this is certainly not B&W or audiophile level.
      I'm not questioning it being decent. I'm questioning whether 10x the price is also in the quality jump. Most gamers need "good enough" for PC. TV oriented soundbars are a decent option too and you probably already have some in your house next to TV.
      Also, music is complicated. There are types of tweeters, that are stunning for string reproduction, like guitar. While some other will shine in other tasks. Some prefer clear articulated basses, while others scream for those reverbing old school party boxes that resonate with it. So much for compliments.
