Customer Ratings & Reviews

Small little speakers with a bold sound! Decent bass for how small they are. Pretty loud but distort a little when at higher volume. Well worth the price if you’re looking for budget speaker setup for computer or record player. Not recommended for studio speakers. Very happy with the purchase though. Don’t hesitate.

These speakers definitely bring more than expected. They have great, but not excellent, sound. The bass is definitely much better than I expected, and I was buying these based from reviews and the price. The speakers are hefty, have decent magnets based by the weight and sound quality. Only downside is the equalizer on the side. I can adjust the bass and treble, and is fine except when turning either to the extreme positive end, you can hear the compression of the opposite. Meaning when turning up treble it's fine until it reaches the extreme + side, where you can hear the bass being cut rather than treble added, and the same is true for the bass. Because this is only at the extreme ends of either, I just keep them lower in my settings and they sound fine. (Extreme being the last 1/16 of the turn approximately) They really are good speakers, as I am using them as studio monitors and they haven't given any kind of issues. I would recommend these to a friend, for sure.

I'm not going to lie, I thought these things were going to be horrible toys. The wood finish and knobs on the side just reminded me of a cheap toy speaker that came with a generic PC. Yes, I saw the reviews of people saying that they were happy with their choice of these speakers. So gave it a shot because I was ready for a bigger presence on my desk than the Audioengine A2s(overpriced $250) that I had. The lack of more filling bass had reached its conclusion with those. So after failing to find any speakers that would go with my setup ( needed to find speakers that had dual RCA connections inputs)...I ran into these at best buy but couldn't test them until I got home. After I got home and first listened, I was totally underwhelmed and was ready to take them back. But then I added my stands with tilt under them and allow them a couple of hours to warm up. After that, the sound started to fill in better and tilt gave it more life. I heard more spacious and directional sounds from them over the A2s and of course more bass, finally. Now I'm sure there are better bass tones from other speakers( I would give them a 7 out of 10 for bass quality) but having the convenience of the dual connection for my DJ Deck and my PC with a remote and separate EQ was starting to grow on me big time. It was so nice not to have to go to my PC or speakers to turn up/down the sound while mixing or having to pull out RCA cables for one, then the other when I was ready to use them. Before I knew it, I was sitting at my computer desk and starting to appreciate more and more with each hour that passed. At the end of the day, I would give this speaker set a 7.5 out of 10. There is beauty found in them for the right needs but they aren't game-changing and yes they could be better, but these are $119 and at that price, you are getting more than what you paid for. So at the end of the day, I believe that is the goal for any tech product, to give back more than what the owner paid for.

I bought these two set up with a turntable on a shelf. They have nice clear sound and a very easy to connect. To do wish that the remote control that comes with them were a bit more sophisticated, as it feels like the volume buttons might just suddenly stop working one day. Otherwise it is a good addition to a relaxed vinyl setup.

Great sound. Reasonable price. I needed a new cord to hear clear sound between the two speakers, but it now works with no issues.

Don't get this if you don't like playing sounds at a relatively high volume. At lower volume it sounds like regular cheap speakers. You have to play it at a fairly high volume to actually get a feel of the sound quality. So might not be suitable for apartments with thin walls

Great sound for the price. During the day, these are the speakers for my home office to sue for focus music and zoom calls. In the off hours, they get used for playing all types of music. The only area they struggle for me, slightly, is with directionality. If they aren’t pointed towards you, the sound quality tapers off. I wouldn’t use these to fill a large room with good sound, but it’s just right for a medium sized home office

Good quality, sound, easy hook up and great value.

The Edifier R1280T bookshelf speakers offer an impressive audio experience at a budget-friendly price point. Here's why these speakers are a solid choice for those seeking good sound without breaking the bank. Firstly, the design is simple yet elegant, blending well with various room aesthetics. The wood grain finish adds a touch of warmth, making them visually appealing. Setting up the speakers is straightforward, and the included remote control adds convenience, allowing easy adjustments from across the room. Sound quality is where the R1280T truly shines. The speakers deliver clear and well-balanced audio across different genres. The bass response is surprisingly robust for speakers of this size, providing a satisfying low-end without being overpowering. The inclusion of dual RCA inputs is a nice touch, allowing users to connect multiple audio sources simultaneously.

The speakers are used on a TV to replace the tinny TV speakers. The line (RCA) outputs on the TV were used which required the volume control on the speakers to be at max. The vol control on the speakers have no stops! When the speakers are turned off, they DO NOT remember the vol setting. I just leave them on 24/7. The wood case is nice but the color of the grill (light grey) is a miss-match. I looked online for a brown or tan grill, but all that is available is a black grill directly from Edifier. The sound quality is much better than the TV speakers.

Aesthetics, well they look awesome. They have dedicated bass and treble knobs, respectively. Comes with a remote control. Sound/Fidelity is AWESOME for the price. You can pay a little bit more and get the bluetooth model, this one comes with an aux cable. The Only reason I didn't give it 5/5 stars is the volume knob on the speakers themselves is not very precise; it has a nice tactile click to it as you turn it, but you have to play with it to get it the desired volume.

The speakers work very well. I like the color a lot. The set up is also really easy and you really don’t even need the directions. It also comes with a remote!

Purchased for teenage daughter’s turntable starter kit. Fills bedroom but probably not gonna satisfy audiophile in a larger room. Has overall decent sound. Easy to setup and control. Really good for the price. We’re happy with it.

Good sound. easy to adjust. remote is a bit cheap but it works

Nice, medium size speaker, with pretty big sound. I connect them up directly to my iPhone via 1/8" stereo to Stereo RCA cable. They sound pretty darn good. It would be nice if they had bluetooth. That said, for the cost, great speaker.

Sound good and are easy enough to set up for a turntable. Also doesn't look too bad, and the remote makes them convenient.

Nice sounding speaker for size. Decent bass and good treble. Smooth sound. They are quite good looking. Using them at my computer desk. My only real complaint is the rear power switch. Should at least be on the side with volume, etc.

Movers broke my speaker set up so I grabbed these. I enjoy my edifier headphones so I thought why not try out their bookshelf speakers. They works great and sound pretty decent for their price range. Definitely some good value.

Excellent sounding speakers that are easy to use and come with the necessary cables. The only downside is there is no way to switch between the AUX and the main line, so if both are plugged in it plays both sources at the same time.

Would give it a 4.5. Decent sound, good value for the price. You're better off getting the one with the sub output to have that option
