Edifier R1700Bt Houten Luidspeaker, 66 W, zwart, 2-weg, draadloos, 3,5 mm/Usb/Bluetooth, 66 W, 60-20.000 Hz, zwart, hout

Needed to replace my desktop computer's audio speakers - games, all kinds of music including bassy edm, do some editing etc. Had an ok Logitech 2.1 system, 2 speakers + a floor subwoofer unit which served me pretty well. Unfortunately the wires for that system were hardwired into the small speakers, which go to the floor sub unit, and these started having fading in/out problems. The mid/high ranges from the small Logi speakers were also not great as I have now come to realise.After a bit of research and back and forth decision making between the more/sometimes better reviewed Edifier R1280DBs's and MR4's, some of the other (at the time of writing) £99 models, it sounded like something was a bit missing from those units for people, and I figured these R1700BT might tick most boxes. These are chunkier than I thought even, but they still fit on my desk just about. I ideally wanted to not have to deal with a subwoofer unit on the floor, so I ordered these and hoped the bass in these would be enough for my use case. The trade-off in use of space I guess is no floor unit, bigger speakers themselves.I opened them up, hooked them to power and connected the two speakers together. Just power, and one more cable. Turned on, bluetooth is super snappy indeed, and got on to trying a bunch of tunes. At first I was a tiny bit disheartened, as some of the songs just didn't feel quite right. But I forgot I'm a bass-inclined individual, so played with the nice treble/bass controls, added +4db, and kicked the volume up.I'm quite happy. My ears retuned a bit and the music started showing some new colours, definition. The bass is also enough, for my needs. I was torn between spending a bit extra for the R1700BTS (S for Subwoofer Out version), so I had the futureproofing of being able to buy a sub to addon if I wanted to. Then I remembered I wanted to do away with the sub unit in the first place, and figured if these don't kick enough bass for my needs it's simply not the speakers for me. I think it would be unreasonable to expect anything more for the £115 I paid and in the form factor they come in. The build quality is great, controls are easy, Bluetooth snappy. No care for the remote control myself so can't comment. Audio is clean, sharp, great. Volume can't go house-party high, but fills my room and spills out a good amount. If I had these in my living room/some open plan social area, would maybe be enough.The only thing missing is the bass lows could be punchier. I do wish I got the BTS model in the end, but I'm sort of fighting my rationale for getting these in the first place then - would just be nice to have the option I think, so if you're crazy bassy I'd go for those, get a sub unit, and be plenty happy.

If i could give more than 5 stars I would.These very much exceeeded my expectations. I wanted speakers for my TV and they do a wonderful job there, but in Bluetooth mode, using YouTube Music, they are astonishing. Not audiophile grade, of course, but very well defined bass and strong but not harsh treble. Mids could be stronger but i cant complain, for 2 way speakers.We put on Alive and Kicking by Simple Minds and they perform brilliantly in our small tv room.I recommend these very highly.

Rapporto qualità prezzo eccellente suonano benissimo sia alti che bassi corposi e nitidi. Io le uso solo studio. Il bluetooth si accoppia facile con i dispositivi.

Un très bon son, très clair. Ils sont beaux, un design réussi, le bois fait penser à du chêne. Je suis content de mon achat. Ce sont d'excellents haut parleurs de bureau. Je recommande

Also...Die Qualität ist Super, von der Verarbeitung. Klanglich überzeugen sie auf jeden Fall. Sie machen auf jeden fall Krach keine Frage! Man sollte sich bewusst sein das es Studio Lautsprecher sind für den Nahbereich. Wenn ich das Wohnzimmer beschallen möchte ist meine Bose ne ganz andere Nummer. Aber das ist ja auch nicht der Sinn dieser Lautsprecher. Ganz klare Kaufempfehlung von mir. Im Nahbereich klingen sie als wärst du dabei u auch mit ordentlich Bass. Grüße Jens
