    These things are pretty incredible for just over 100 bucks. Small yet powerful and they actually have good base for their size. The build is also super nice and clean. I am impressed and super happy with these speakers.

    First & foremost, I’ll address what is most important from a pair of Bluetooth speakers: The sound. Wow. The treble & bass knobs really help tune that perfect sound quality. Secondly, they are simple. They connect quickly and without issues. I also love that they have a convenient little remote that I lay on ly bedside stand. Id say these are perfect for a small bedroom, office, garage, or to use as desktop speakers (if you have a large desk as they’re not exactly small). Definitely a good buy!

    Absolutely blown away by the quality of these speakers. I have them on my desktop connected via bluetooth to my Mac Mini. They pack a nice punch and the sound quality is crystal clear. Took me about 5 minutes to get them plugged in and hooked up to bluetooth. They are beautiful too. Cannot recommend these speakers enough. OUTSTANDING SPEAKERS ALL AROUND. 5 stars!

    I use these for my record player and I wasn't disappointed. I could use a bit more bass but I'm please with the functionality of these speakers. I mainly use them for the record player, but I can also sync them to my phone and TV. I would definitely recommend!

    Speakers That Pack a Punch

    I bought these speakers to pair with a Audio Technica turntable, since these are what you'd call powered speakers. Initially, I thought I had hooked everything wrong (and admittedly, while I'm not that old, I'm not that great with technology and electronics -- I'd say slightly below average). The sound was coming out low. I eventually figured things out, but not sure how. The instructions, imo, aren't written well enough to let you know the ins 'n outs of the speaker. (As Michael Scott in The Office once said, "Talk to me like I'm 5.") Anyway, enough of The Office education ... The sound coming out of these speakers are amazing. I can hear the music yards away, and wonder if people outside my condo can hear it as well. Very pleased with the purchase. Only drawback were the instructions and the fact that the grills seem to stick out too much. I'm afraid to push them flush up against the speaker wood for fear that I might break it. (Maybe it's supposed to be like that?) *shrugs*

    Bought these to combine them with a turntable and using the wireless Bluetooth made it super convenient. The sound is excellent for the price range, definitely not as good as my Boston Acoustics but I also didn’t pay what I paid for the BA’s. I have them in a 14x14 room with hardwood flooring and the sound fills the room with a decent amount of bass and good mid and treble. You can also hardwire these but if you have the Bluetooth option, why bother with wire clutter. So far I like them and would recommend them.

    I bought these for my home gym area and they look and sound great. I've used them with Bluetooth and by directly plugging in and they sound good both ways. Easy to switch between inputs and volume and bass are solid. You can't beat the price.

    I needed desktop speakers with optical input and these fit the bill perfectly. They're well-made and sturdy, and the sound is quite nice. You can really get some good bass out of them. The multiple inputs, including bluetooth, make these speakers quite versatile. My only complaint is that I was they had a headphone jack.

    I was looking for computer speakers that took optical inputs and these fit the bill. These are probably the best value that does. Even included an optical cable, 3.5mm headphone line, and red/white composite cable if you are looking for those inputs. Other inputs include Coax and Bluetooth

    For small speakers I was hesitant they wouldn't sound great, I figured they'd be good and good computer speakers but, these speakers from Edifier are absolutely amazing. Are they perfect? No. Are they as close to perfect for their size? Absolutely. These little guys pack a punch and with a few minor adjustments to the controls on the side of the main speaker (the one with all the connections and the power) they can fill the room with sound, good quality sound, great bass and clarity. Bottom line is, buy them.

    Love the speakers. Bass and treble are adjustable so you can tune exactly as you like which is perfect for gaming and music production. Having bluetooth and in-line audio is great for switching between PC audio and nintendo switch audio. Sound is deep and bass lovers can get some heavy bass on their music. Highly reccomend.

    Easy to set up, compact design with great, full sound. Bass is fairly impressive for the price point. Got these primarily for use with an Audio Technica turntable and I fin that I really enjoy the bluetooth feature as well as the ability to control and switch between devices with the remote. Great speakers for the price point.

    Fantastic sound in a Bluetooth speaker with an optical input that works perfectly with my Google audio cast. These compare favorably with my Bose companion 2.1 system that I use with my music production system.

    These speakers were recommended to me by the store I bought my record player at. They sound great and were very easy to hook up. The Bluetooth feature is also great. I would definitely recommend. Great sound for a fraction of the price of others. Shipped very fast also.
