Edifier R1280DB Powered Bluetooth Bookshelf Speakers - Optical Input - Wireless Studio Monitors - 4 Inch Near Field Speaker - 42w RMS - Wood Grain

Bought it with Rs. 11700. Sound quality is so good that no apparent distortion at full volume. Very good bass good mid range but little lacks at high frequency but still could be considered good as speaker. Only problem is mode selection only by remote. If remote is lost or malfunction no other way to select mode. Should have had manual button. Though remote functions well. In any body could consider it blindly. I am using it for my bravia through optical input. Bluetooth line In also working well.

Have been using the same old set of Creative speakers for over a decade, and while I've been upgrading my computer and its accessories, speakers were the last thing on my mind. However, curiosity got the better of me, and I decided to take the leap into the world of high-quality audio. Little did I know that upgrading to these Edifier Bookshelf Speakers would revolutionize my music, gaming, and movie experiences! The pros of these speakers are truly impressive. First and foremost, the sound separation is outstanding. I can pick up on subtle details in my music that I never noticed before. Additionally, when watching movies, the dialogs and vocals are crystal clear, making the movie-watching experience even more enjoyable. The bass is just right, adding depth to the music without overpowering it, resulting in a pleasing and immersive audio experience. One feature that I particularly love is the Bluetooth capability. Now, I can easily connect my phone to the speakers, allowing me to lie down and relax while enjoying watching movies or listening to music with top-notch sound quality. It's incredibly convenient and makes listening to content from my phone a breeze. Before making my purchase, I conducted extensive research and narrowed down my options to Edifier Bookshelf Speakers, Presonus, and Mackie speakers. After watching various YouTube comparisons, I decided to move forward with these. In my opinion they sound better, but they also boast an attractive design and solid build quality. The inclusion of Bluetooth connectivity was the icing on the cake, offering an added level of convenience. After spending considerable time with these speakers, I can confidently say that I wholeheartedly recommend the Edifier Bookshelf Speakers to anyone seeking a remarkable audio experience. Whether you're a music enthusiast, a gamer, or a movie lover, these speakers will elevate your content to a whole new level. The clarity, separation, and overall performance are truly unparalleled. You won't be disappointed if you decided to move forward with these speakers!

I’d like to share my thoughts on my recent purchase — the Edifier R1280DB. If you’re looking for a great home theatre experience in this price range, this is one of the best options. The sound feels truly cinematic, and even though it doesn’t come with a subwoofer, the built-in bass is strong enough — especially if you live in an apartment and don’t want the sound to go beyond your living room. You’ll be impressed by the sound clarity. Even small background sounds are clear, and the voice quality is excellent. The bass is decent too. Although it doesn’t have surround speakers, it still gives a surround-like effect as the sound reflects off the walls. I’m not exaggerating — I also own a Sony S40 5.1 (600W) system, and the Edifier performs surprisingly close to Sony’s quality. For music, it delivers rich and detailed audio that you’ll really enjoy. (I connect it through an optical cable.) Cons: Bluetooth is fine for casual music, but don’t expect the same sound quality as the optical connection. It’s not ideal for watching movies over Bluetooth, as the volume will be lower than what the speakers can actually produce. The adapter wire feels a bit cheap, though it still works fine. Overall, consider what you need before buying. For me, I mostly watch movies and listen to music through the optical connection, and it’s been a great experience. (It also has an AUX input, but I haven’t used it yet.)

I have been listening to a setup consisting of Wharfedale Diamond 9.1's and after that to Klipsch R-15Ms driven via Pioneer receiver (200W RMS) for a long time. I switched to the Klipsch after I managed to rip the woofer cone of the Wharfedale. The main difference in sound between the two is that the Klipschs sound a lot more livelier however the Wharfedale's sound a lot more clear when playing instruments like tabla. My musical tastes are more inclined towards Rock/Pop so the Klipschs suit that better. Few days back I got the Edifiers for my parents' apartment. I liked these as they don't require an external amp and also quite compact in size not to mention Amazon sales offered a good price. I really didn't know what to expect in terms of audio quality as these aren't "real hifi" components and neither is Edifier a known "hifi" brand. I was in for a big surprise. The pair sounded really great the first time I played it. The sound goes up pretty loud and easily fill a large sized bedroom without any problems. The sound quality is maintained at higher volume levels. The timbre is great. The bass is OK, not bad compared to the Klipschs but considering the small size the Edifier sounds really good. Bluetooth connection works without any problems. The unit has quite a few connectivity options which is very useful, I have a CD player connected to line 1. The remote control is a bit small but works without problems and allows one to switch between audio sources. The unit also has its own power on/off button which again is a great thing. All in all, I don't see a big difference in sound quality between this and a 50K hifi setup which means the value for money you get on this is very high. I definitely will recommend this speaker for any music lover.

Value for money and it meets expectations. Sound quality is reasonable and its connectivity - Blue tooth, Line 1 & 2 inputs are convenient

Excellent speakers below 10k budget. Just go for it. Very balanced crystal clear sound and will get edicted to the way it sounds. Vocals are very clear and high frequency sound with zero distortion at full volume. It gives punchy natural bass enough for people who listen the music for long hours and if you're bass lover best to add subwoofer to enjoy boom/wow effects or we can attach this speakers to the home theatre as well. You'll definitely love Watching movies with this speakers because vocal dialogues and sound effects especially firing bullet sounds are awesome, you'll feel like the theatre effects. It have lot of connectivity option like RCA, Coaxial, Optical, Line 1 and 2 so we connect to multiple device at a time and switch over the sound between the devices whenever required. Remote is very small but helpful to control sound and switch over the connections. Overall good speakers. I'm writing this review after 2 weeks of usage post listening and watching long hours of music and movies. Hopefully you'll be like it.

I have used these 1280DB speakers attached to my desktop PC for about 6 weeks now. I am a heavy computer user (about 12 hours a day), and I always have some audio playing in the background. And these are yet to disappoint me. I have played just about everything on these speakers, and what I am most amazed about is how versatile they are - pretty much everything sounds good on these. - All kinds of music (I listen to everything from electronica, pop, rock to ambient, classical, jazz) - Audiobooks - Movies - Documentaries As other reviewers have noted, I have noticed that these speakers have a "flat" frequency response, i.e. they produce bass, mids, and treble notes pretty evenly, not biased or skewed towards any end of the spectrum. This, to me, is a HUGE positive ! Because it means that you can not only enjoy your music but when you watch movies, you will hear the dialogue very clearly, and also not miss out on the bass from the sound effects of explosions or whatever. Bass - Some reviewers have said that these lack bass. I disagree. I think that the bass from these is more than adequate. My electronic music has a lot of bass, and these respond very well. There is more than adequate bass for a desktop PC or room listening experience. These are not meant for a big party. They are meant for more refined sound. Loudness - These are great if you are sitting at a desk or have them on the shelf in a small-medium room. They are not meant to fill big living rooms or halls. Again, I see this as a positive because it means they won't bother your neighbors too much. Remote control - More than adequate, and works fine every time I use it. I love the adjustment knobs for Bass/Treble. They are quite handy. So, overall, I think that these are awesome computer speakers. Suggestions for improvement - Add bass/treble control buttons to the remote. But if you're sitting at your desk, this is not really an issue because you can reach over and just use the knobs.

Reviewed after initial use in 2019 Very nice product. Awesome sound clarity. I've listened to lots of good stuff on it and I've had the opportunity to compare it with top notch Creative speakers. These sound as good as the Creative speakers. Even on top volume, you don't hear any sort of distortions. If you're looking to watch movies and listen to music without distortion, you'll get more than what you've paid for. I can say that for sure! The timbre from the various instruments (especially the strings) are sweet! The remote is pretty basic. Don't expect much. But it is very functional. As for the value of the product, it looks very premium at this price. And for a 150sqft room size, this is speaker set will fill up the space with its clear music. Dec 2021 The speakers died on me. Does not turn on. Customer care requested to send the product to Mumbai (from Chennai)!! Told me it might cost ~4000 for repairs. I might as well buy a new pair - definitely not going to be another Edifier!!! Ever!!! My Creative Inspire T series from 2 decades ago still perform fantastic!!!
