I picked up a pair of these for a friend to use with a turntable in a room with no convenient place for a traditional amplifier and passive speakers. These fit the bill nicely. They are versatile with the range of inputs on offer and they sound very pleasing with enough oomph to fill a small to medium sized room; they obviously can't fully compete with more expensive HiFi speakers, but for their size and price they're great value, my friend is well chuffed and is revisiting her record collection. Meanwhile the grandchildren can pair their smartphones over Bluetooth and play their music. Nice product for the money.

There's one thing about these that are incredible for the price....output for a sub! It's very hard to find that in speakers in this range, and I've shopped the sht out of Amazon, etc...this is one of the few sets around $100 that have that feature. SO, if you have an old sub, like a Sony powered multimedia sub(etc) from the 90's/00's, 10's.... that still hits hard like mine, you'll be wanting something like this, it takes a lot of load off off the built in amp to push those lows and increases the dynamic range my an amazing amount. Btw those old subs are cheap af, and can be picked up from yard/garage sales for next to nothing now. It's almost like doubling the power output, and clarity when your sub can take the low end load off the relatively small book shelf sized cones, allowing them to focus more on mid to highs. Just be careful matching connectors, be sure you're not losing signal, or getting a dirty one due to cheap siring, like the stuff that comes with them at at times(not these in particular).

Having owed a beautiful yet delicate set of LS60 Wireless Lotus Edition speakers. I picked up the ones you reviewed. And I’m well impressed, affordable and stylish with enough audio for my office. Great review

[stormrunnercore]

Just got them ordered and they’re coming in this evening. Very excited. Got a new tv a while back and the built in speakers are terrible. The optical input is a win for me. Hope they sound as good as I’m hoping. Hard to tell until you listen to them in person. I’m a bit of an audiophile but am a fan of these budget brands. College keeps you broke.

Probably one of the best explainers on the r1280dbs - for someone like me who is planning to order one online.

[slydr]

If they would have HDMI ARC it would be perfect to extend your TV sound ( without using 2 remote controls ) at a reasonable price, much better sound than similar priced soundbars and also nicer look! :)

[digitalmediafan]

Can you use these as simple left and right speakers with no Bluetooth no active option without the need to be plugged in ? Also the size of them on amazon seems a complete lie "17in x 11.8in x 7.2in"

[bikershikers]

Whats the difference between the Edifier R1280DBs and R1280DB ?

[forggyk]

Do you need to use the speaker cable to get the secondary speaker to work?

[JoelsterGk]

Im looking for speakers like this but with HDMI for audio, do you think they make them?

[cloudybits]

So you get optical input but the output to the non active speaker is not, seems like it won't make much of a difference to use optical input at all?

[csn]

Which is better, this or the AudioEngine A2+ ?

[G.E.P.Broken]

Probably a dumb question but, you can control the volume of the speakers with the remote control when they are connected to the TV with optical? (With the speakers remote control, not the TV one)

[alphabravo]

Thank you.
Also... How does the R1280DBS compare to the R1700BTS?
For movies, gaming and music?

[marcus]

Should I use cable or bluetooth to connect to my monitor? Because I’m connecting my ps5 to the monitor just for gaming and watching videos only

[markanthonypraico]

slapped in a t5 subwoofer with these and it sound awesome!!!

[anandyahamdi]

Can these be connected to PASSIVE Subwoofer?

[wolffury]

Hi,

My Akai-SS800 stopped working after 22 years of Glorious Service.

I am from India and i am planning to buy this Speakers.

Your Presentation is very useful in finalizing.

My 83 years old Precious Mother always hear to Music when she paints!

I am very much became a fan of your Accent!

Active speaker means, it has built in amplifier.
Correct?
Thanks.

I have Sony home theatre can I connect it's woofer to Edifier 1280 dbs

[GeraltOfRivia]

Should I buy these or a soundbar with a subwoofer for my pc(with Dolby atmos etc)? What do you think? I am really confused. For movies, games, etc, what do you think I should buy?
