    The screens are the weakest link. - Good overall

    These are good speakers. The remote though doesn’t seem to turn them on. The power from the remote will only turn the blue mode on. I’m guessing this is the Bluetooth mode. But when this happens I can’t hear the speakers at all. The remote doesn’t even turn them fully on where the light is green. Only when the light is green am I able to hear them. When manually powered on green one speaker will turn on and then small wait time the other will turn on. But it does have good sound and they look nice. The screen cover over the speakers is the only thing besides the plug that looks cheap. The screens look like they used just any off brand screen and glued them on. I would have liked a more durable stronger screen. These feel like one poke just from moving them with puncher the screen. The price is the thing that I didn’t like the most. I just don’t feel like they were worth the almost two hundred dollar market. These are just basic good speakers I’m happy with them but if I were to move I don’t know if they would stay in One piece especially the screens.

    I found treble and bass control very useful for different types of music. Very aesthetic sound crisp and clear on high to mid frequency but mid bass was lacking making this speaker less lifelike. Wish had sub out to add cheap 8 inches subwoofer to elevated the mid bass. Everything else works seamlessly right out the box. Connecting Bluetooth was 15 seconds. Two audio inputs for pc and TV. This speaker excellent fit with college kids music and lifestyle. DON'T LOOSE THE REMOTE!!

    These little bookshelf speakers can really put out big sound! Clear highs and surprising low end capability. Purchased them to create a stand alone audio experience with my turntable and they work even better than I had expected!

    Great speaker for the price but I ended up returning them for something more expensive. If you are on a budget, these sound good. If you can spend more, you'll find better options. I did like the EQ control and the looks.

    Sound and performance ok. Bluetooth and controller, meh. Controller never worked and bluetooth function has no appeal to me. I don't like the blue light when its off.

    This is my second Edifier Computer speaker setup (home and work offices) and I am more than impressed with the sound quality! At my work office, I need to be able to keep the volume low and still hear both video conferences and training videos with very clear sound. I can still crank up the volume for those occasional music jam out sessions when I stay late and everyone is gone. The bass is clear and strong yet doesn’t shake my office walls, forcing my coworkers to hear the same thing as I am hearing. All while having full range crisp highs at the knobs neutral EQ position. I have one complaint, the speakers are huge for a desktop even if they look fantastic, they take up more space than any other speaker that I have owned over the years.
