At least someone on UA-cam guessed to turn on the sound, instead of talking about the sound ))))))
Nothing more irritating than an audio review with no audio samples.
@@ROMERO4855 Or they put up a bunch of graphs with no audio samples......I dont fucking look at graphs to hear music.
Here in Malaysia where I live, The Five costs 4 times the price of Edifier s1000 mk11.....yes...we have the cheapest Edifier's price list in the world...No brainer there on what to choose .
What a find your channel is!!! Absolute genius!!! Thank you so much! This made my monitor purchase so much easier.
They both sound good with me leaning towards the klipsch but the great thing is they are not even competing in the same price bracket so recommending one is as easy as asking what one's budget is.
First of all, I like to thank you for demoing the K. Fives you do listen to your viewers. Some speakers reviewers on UA-cam just love to talk and talk seldom respond to viewers, respond only those who criticize the channel. I give the channels a few suggestions and never taken up. You are doing a good job listening to the viewers. BTW a lot of reviewers do not realise using WORDS to just describe sound reproduction has many short comings but they do not view it that way. Demos replace hundreds if not thousand of words.
After hearing these 2 spkrs actually, I refer the Edifier it gives a better soundstage in terms of height, sound width is about the same. Also the K. Fives is much more expensive, new buyers may want to buy it for a future app which I was told may include Room Correction for the Fives in the user living room. I thought the Fives will give better Bass respond but the Freq. Resp curves from both spkrs indicate there in the same ball park. I was told that in low vol. the Fives automatically adjust to gives the listener better bass. So as per your demo, the Edifier has the edge.
I thought the Fives using compression driver will give the spkrs 'more' dynamic sound, from your demo tracks I don't hear it that way.
I could go on and on but I think that's enough for now.
With tears i can say this is my favourite channel. Tears coz you watch this channel buy the speakers wich appeal to you the most and thats it. A lot of work for Digital yet not rewarding enough. Hope you keep up for years to come.
Thanks Johan. I'm here to stay
They sound very very similar, at least according to this recording. If the Edifier is cheaper then it's a better buy. But it's hard to realize when the mic is so close to the speaker. For example it's impossible to hear the affect of the Klipsch's horn on the spatial sound in the room.
Wow what a difference. Listening on Beyer Dynamic DT1990 Pro headphones and you can really hear how much more open and detailed the mids and highs are on the Edifiers. The Klipsch sound good but you can hear they have a big smiley face EQ curve with a very smooth sounding roll off on the top end. That's an Edifier win for me.
Thank you for your excellent videos. They are very interesting and very useful to know which speakers to buy.
The fives are just amazing, love em
Appreciate your videos very much. Thank you for your job.
S1000MKII vs Airpulse A100 would be interesting to compare. They are in very different price categories, but S1000MKIII in my opinion (based on your videos) have the most linear response within S1000-S2000-S3000 series. I like the sound of A100 in your videos and lean towards buying them, but S1000MKII with BT5.0 aptX HD and much much lower price are very appealing.
Haha. I'm watching this video on my desktop with sound coming out of my "Fives". Great video. I love my Fives, but definitely had to turn the bass all the way down so it wasn't overpowering. The bass coming out of the Fives is insane. Got them for $400 on sale so I went for them over the Edifiers.
The fives sound better, like 3%! For me the winner is Edifier (again). Plus, they cost half the money than Ks'. Another great video comparison. Thanks
I bought the Fives about a year ago and at first they were ok but after some investigation I did two things that made them so much better. First get their download and the phone app that allows you to tailor their eq and room placement changes and two I bought a Cambridge Audio DACMAGIC 100. I run these with an older Klipsch 10" sub now I'm a pretty happy camper on music as well as movies.
If U`ll buy additionally some decent amp U could get even greater results 🙄
@@litvinovserge 😂
thank you, always great job sharing this results, could we know a little more about the room? like size and acoustization?
Incredible!!! At less then half the price the Edifier sound more true to the sound track. My question however is "what is the real RMS power of both?". I mean, do the Klipsch deliver much more power?
Hi! Great videos. Listening to your comparisions, i became keen towards s1000mkii. However, initially i was planning for edifer r1855db. The s1000mkii costs almost double in my country. Is the double price worth the improvement over the r1855db?
Also, i will use them with my laptop. What should be the ideal positioning on desk. TIA
You can hear the bass bleed over on the fives because of the eq settings they come with. Overall both speakers sounds really good. The fives seem a little more fun but the edifiers sound a lot more neutral. both depend heavily on how far away from the wall they are and size of room.
Agree, Fives more alive and exciting. Edi not bad at all.
Is it wise if I place the fives under my desk? Will that effect the sounds it produces?
I really need a suggestion and you seem to really know your stuff. Between the m200 mkiii plus or the klipsh fives which would you reccomend if price isnt a factor? I like the look of the fives which will better match my turntable and the fact the have a phone preamp but sound is most important. Will be using with cds through digital optical, spotify through bluetooth and turntable analog. Your take would be highly appreciated and I would even contribute to your patreon or whatever platform for a detailed answer.
oh my, I wish I found this review earlier :( just ordered the Fives last week
at times i can hear the Edifier getting confused between bass and mids, sounds muddy, then at times it has better soundstage than the Klipsch…as for the fives, true to form it is base heavy, but is sounds superb with the hip hop track and anything with distinct mids, good for vocals, and has better frequency seperation…you can’t get wrong with both speakers in the end
Edifier mais balanceado, apresenta mais médio, sem perder em grave e agudo, inclusive se aproxima mais da source track de cada gênero musical. Klipsch é mais limpo, mas tem menos médios, o que deixa as músicas mais frias. Para mim, Edifier S1000MKII levou a melhor no comparativo.
Thank you for your excellent videos.
Video next: The Fives vs Edifier, Audiengine, DALI v.v.v
Thanks
omg...thank you for this video...such a good review of what actually matters...the fives are getting owned by a speaker that's half the price
The sound difference is marginally better with the Klips primarily through the better inspections of instruments but value for money and sheer versitality then the Edifiers win hands down.
Plz suggest me between edifier S1000Mkii or polk magnifi mini for my leaving room.
I cannot speak to the comparison, but my Fives sound great with my Pro Ject TT. I know their versatility is a strong point, but the sound alone sells these speakers, IMO.
I’m biased. I have the Edifier S1000MKII speakers. They’re brilliant! The Klipsch also sound brilliant but based on what I’m hearing here, I think I made the correct choice.
I have both the Fives at home and the Edifier in the office
I compared them once at home and the Fives sound a little better but are more critical to position
The Edifier is more easy in that area
The Fives must be placed in the correct height to your listening position otherwise they sound worse than the Edifier 1000 mk2
The Fives are great and the sub out works fantastic
But the price difference to the Edifier is much too big for the little improvement you get with the Fives
Wouldn't buy them again for that reason only
But they are really fun so I'm still happy
Here in Mexico, the Fives costs almost 500 dlls, as the Edifier are arround 250 dlls. Im thinking to buy The Fives, but your comment makes me think it again.
Hola, entonces s2000 mk3 si esta igualados o mejor que the fives? Saludos
Enserio 250 dólares dónde??? Yo los e buscado durante días y salen igual que los the fives, yo creo que sería mejor los the fives ya que veo que en otros lados del mundo cuestan 4 veces los más los the fives y aún así los compran en México hay que aprovechar que cuestan lo mismo que los edifier y comprar los the fives.por los precios que he visto son 11,000 para edifier y 12,000 para the fives. Algo así como 500 dólares y según edifier tiene distribución oficial en México, si alguien sabe dónde conseguir los edifier por 250 dólares avísenme.
@@maximo_rz hola maximo, que mas has podido averiguar de cual ofrece mejor calidad y rendimiento? Y cual te has comprado, saludos
The edifies does not hdmi , it’s dealbreaker
Edifier a bit more pleasant to my ears. And I`m enjoying my edifier r1700bt :) pretty good for size and price.
I bought a set of Edifiers. The sound is more sparkling bit less bass. All about taste i know.
The r1700bt are sooo good. Have them too.
I like them both but prefer the edifiers by a little.
Question.
The fives paired with a klipsch sub, should be a no brainer, correct?
I was told that klipsch is using the same ceramic tweeters that they are using for their reference series.
Can someone please confirm this?
And they are also using the same drivers from their reference series as well.
If this is true, then technically speaking, if you paired the fives with a klipsch sub, wouldn't you have a speaker that would rival speakers costing thousands more?
The Fives or RP-600M with a Yamaha stereo receiver R-S202BL?
Klipsch are much cleaner and have better instruments separation, you can hear it especially on a Metal Head track. Definitely a winner for me. But they cost much more, so that's not a surprise.
So they are good for metal and prog rock then?.. I listen to alot of metal, prog rock but also ambient and electronic music so want something that's good for both.
Very interesting, but something is missing. Maybe you should try recording it with binaural gear.
Fives sounded a lot more natural and detailed through my planar headphones. Less bass, but plenty of it, and a more linear presentation from top to bottom. Clear winner for my taste.
You should try The Fives in real life :D bassy, boomy and they give me a headache :D
In my opinion Edifier sounds clearer - louder 1-2kHz range, but for my ears Klipsch sounds nicer and draws more into the music.
Honestly, having heard the The Fives in person, I feel this video really doesn't do them justice. Not that I don't like these videos, but there seemed to be so much more from The Fives that seems missing here, hard to describe. I wouldn't be surprised if the Edifiers beat them on bass, but the Klipsch have a great detail that still sounds warm.
nice video
Did something changed in the room or setup? There seems to be more low-end and a somewhat darker sound compared to earlier comparisons.
I have added some acoustic treatment hence the darker sound due to less reverbrations. Regarding the bass, this is very placement dependant and in this placement sound was a bit more bassy
@@DSAUDIOreview Cheers, I think it's an improvement catching more sound detail. Less accumulation in mid/high.
@Digital Stereography, could You Kindly do a comparison between the Klipsch fives and the Edifier S2000mkiii. Thanks
thanks for the comparison. don't know how to explain wat i hear: the sound from edifier is muddy, especially for metal track. both systems sound muffled, like they are enclosed in a barrel, or lowered into a well. like their apperture is very small in midrange, which is not evident from their spectrum. why is the spectrum so choppy? is it the room or the cabinet? they seem to coincide at lots of frequencies. just thinking outloud
Frequency response was measured in room, that is why it is not even
Fives vs s3000pro please
Edifier S1000MKII 👍
Bought the Edifier S1000 mk ll as my Yamaha PSR SX900 monitor speaker. Better soundstage present than my previous scoop sounding R2800 , boxy mid voice S350db and dry sounding + loud tweeter hiss JBL 305.
Since I place the S1000 mk ll just 100cm infront me while playing the keyboard arranger, I prefer it slightly angle speaker design. Honestly, the S2000 mk lll are better choice if you guys prefer enjoy music listening from distance plus wider sound field and fuller low end compare to s1000 mk ll.
I want to see the Polk R 200s on the channel to go up against the Klipsch fives!! I own the Polks 😊
Almost identical that cannot distinguish, except one cost less than half with another one :)
Having an untrained ear XD the Edi is not bad at all. I hear more difference with the comparison of the Klipsch R-41PM and the KEF LSX than this two. The Klipsch does sound a bit more composed but again the Edi not bad at all.
Klipsch :O wow amazing sound
Édifier sound better, more balanced.
@@MonsieurWolf76 cuál tiene mejor acústica y calidad de sonido?
s1000 mkII великолепны за свою цену
I vote Edifier... Sure!!!
the sound stage of the edifier clearly shows up in the mortals song
Klipsch The Fives (McLaren Edition) or Edifier S3000 Pro?
The fives vs s2000 mk3!!!! Thanks!!!!
cómo se llaman las canciones que puso algún que me diga por favor
What different between s1000mkii and s2000kii?..which one should i go for better music listening?
S2000mkii has more refined sound. The soundstage is bigger.
+ klipsh, but price s1000 amazing
Edifier hans down.. Specifically if you consider the price gap between the two..
please the fives vs the sixes
The Sixes win Bass !
i am looking forward to see too
@@trantrungdiep1 Obviously, but also in mid-range and highs?
Hmm overall Edifier wins, by a small margin, sound alittle more detailed with less bass emphasis, also the Klipsch sound a little boxy some times.
Hi! just want to ask,, which one would you go SQ Wise?the S2000pro, S1000MKii or the Klipsch R-51PM?
S1000MKII
Digital Stereophony more power! Thank you!!!
@@DSAUDIOreview Really? Better than S2000pro? I've heard your S2000 comparison with the Klipsch where the Klipsch sounded rather tinny and lacking serious low-end.
Edifier es para escuchar musica, no hay mas 🙌
both klipsches and edifiers are better then source track..
in thailand s1000mkii 8,000thb ,klipsch the fives 28,000thb and i choose s1000mkii : )
Edifier
The fives... absolutely!
Can anyone tell me the difference between s2000 mk3 vs s1000 mk2 (apart from price) ?
Hahaha your profile picture, I thought a little hair got stuck inside my screen :)
S2000mkiii has bigger soundstage. The sound is more refined.
@@hosainrashed8129 podrían superar a los klipsch the fives en acústica y calidad?
Edifier❤
Quick question. Which sounds better the Edifier s1000db or the s1000mkii??
S1000MKII by a mile
@@DSAUDIOreview what kind of speakers would u recommend for pc gaming and music?? Speakers that would be able to hook up to a pc tower. I was looking into the s1000mkii or is there something better?? Thank you.
I'm 68 and have minor deafness but the edifier sound crisper.
Obviously the dearer wins.. but edifier holds its own in the price
The Fives: good clarity on treble, thumpy bass, recessed mids. S1000MKII: clearer bass, fuller mids, less clarity on treble. I would very soon get bored of the thin vocal sound from The Fives.
Edifier!!!!
the normal ported muddy bass. its amazing that ported is still selling.
No it's not. Well tuned bass ports are very efficient. Even expensive studio monitors have them.... But of course they don't know what they're doing in studio's .....
Edifiers are like a dependable station wagon while the Klipsch are a custom muscle car.
Is the edifier mkII better than the s1000 db?
Yes!
Susan Ivanova and do they sound good at low volumes as well? Planning to connect it to my record player in a room. I’m currently using the JBL boombox.
@@tanishqpradhan3 Due to DSP, the Edifier "S" series do sound good at lower volumes as well. S1000MKII, S2000Pro and S2000MKIII will kill the JBL boombox.
@@rdolle990 I picked the edifier s1000mkII. Couldn’t be happier.
Klipsch play Midrange little better.🤘👌👌👌👌👌
Really? How does it handle guitars and keyboards...Not buried behind bass too much?
More depth all around to the Edifiers on the first track “Deep”. Again, the same on the second track. Klipsch gets the nod on the third track. Edifier on the fourth track does it for me. The Klipsch bass sound there isn’t right. Fifth track, “Metal Head”, I can’t decide between the two. That’s a draw. Sixth track, “Bellissimo”, more bass on the Klipsch but it’s not necessary. I think I’ll mark that one a draw. The seventh track seems overall depressed on the Klipsch so again, Edifier wins. On the eighth track the Klipsch sound is positively tinny. Edifier wins here again.
So, all in all that is Edifier - 5, Klipsch - 1, with two draws…. That’s the judgement on sound reproduction, through my Beats Flex buds with the same results through my Sony MDR-XB650BT.
Price? Well that’s got to be Edifier all day long and thrice on Sundays…
Since the sound profile is almost exactly the same , maybe the drivers manufacturer is the same company !🤔
Edifier the clear winner, sounds nine tenths as good but at 40 percent of the price!
Very interested to see how The Fives compare to the A100's as everyone who has reviewed the former hasn't done the latter.
No AirPulseA100 comparison, but there will be a comparison with AirPulse A80
Klipsch is the winner overall here.
Nah, its to hard to hear the difference this way. Anyway we should give respect to edifier. Being cheaper for more than a twice they sound pretty good in this comparation.
Hi I am trying to decide between S1000mkii and klipsch r41pm for my living room. What do you think?
S1000MKII by a LONG mile
Edifier!
Edifier S1000MKII vs Edifier R1850DB
That's clear already :) Bigger driver,, better tweeter bigger amps, more advanced tech, more box volume, higher series......
I have the 1850 with closed 10" Tannoy active sub (office) and still they are not even close in detail and low-end to the S2000MKIII (living room)
S1000MKII are far superior. It isn't even close to be honest. The Five's sound muffled and stiffling whereas the S1000MKII are wider and have more high-end dynamics.
Bass has more detail and impact on the fives mids are a tad better on edifier the difference is too small to truly care about
Did you listen with headphones? Im listening through a Sonos 5 and if anything, the edifier sounds better to me. Yea its close.
Why should one get the S1000MKII while the S2000MKIII is about the same price? Last sale they went for €299,-........
Yeah, for similar price one should get S2000MKIII
Where do you find such sales?
@@mifantraxful Last week, in NL at ibood.com. Got mine at Amazon.de for 340,-. Now they fluctuate between 400,- and 450,-
S2000pro vs S2000mkIII what’s the difference?
@@edmondsamuel51 S2000MKIII is upgraded S2000pro.
Klipsch The Fives - win. May be HEDD Type vs ... ?
Edifier win🎉
Bass is my game so I’m siding with Klipsch
микрофон на басах перегружается, особенно заметно на первом треке!
Klipsch's (horn) are better for classical music, Edifier's are better for everything else.
Yikes half the price and a very comparable sound. Hmmmm for $350 the Fives look way better and because I'm in my new studio I may splurge.
Klipcsh are a fail for me. I live in the mids where vocals, instruments and guitars live. Mids and highs are set way back on Klipsch, yet bass is way to boomy and hot. No longer interested in this new speaker from K.
That's what i was afraid of... I like to hear guitars, keyboards etc as i listen to alot of metal and prog rock and don't want something that's too bass boomy...though I hear with the klipsch app you can now improve settings abit..but whether that's enough to make the mids better I don't know.
The Fives did better with the classical music, the instruments sounded more realistic. Other than that, I cant tell a real difference. The Fives cost twice as much though.
Come on guys the kilpsch wins hands down on looks alone ! Yes there's a bump in the bass but put that microphone back 10 feet and the spatial tweeter balances out ..clear winner
The Edifier with the grilles on are a stunner!
2:55 track Mortals by Warriyo ua-cam.com/video/zFXl1sjTdms/v-deo.html
They both overemphasize bass.
