What customers say about "Size & Weight"
Edifier R1850DB
- They looked good in the bedroom and the sound was excellent, especially considering the price and the size of the speaker (small).
- Their size is amazing, the volumes they reach are incredible. The remote is good. The ergonomics are nice.
- Compact and look great. Sound brilliant connected by bluetooth to my iPad and also on the auxiliary input to my Yamaha arranger keyboard.
- The first thing that was evident when I unpacked these Bluetooth bookshelf speakers was the heavy weight of the speakers.
- Materials and build quality isn't bad and I like their stealthy look, but it feels like it's heavy from it being MDF and not any sort of fancy and expensive components.
Edifier R1280DB Active Remote Control Bookshelf Speakers
- They sound amazingly good for the price and their size.
- The size of the speakers are fairly compact also. The remote control is fairly simple and sturdy with just a mute button and the volume control.
- These are perfect. They look good too. They're a decent size, not too big and not too small, and they have settings for volume and bass.
- I love these speakers! Brilliant sound, small size, very smart looking, great little remote.
- Weight - very heavy for their size. Remote control - not really worth the point since volume can be adjusted even quicker on a computer.

What customers say about "Audio"
Edifier R1850DB
- The sound is very good and very clear. You can't expect a better sound quality in such size.
- I find the sound incredible, I really like the highs and mids.
- Really nice crisp and clear sound. Bluetooth works easy enough and no problems setting them up.
- Sound quality is great right out of the box. Highs and mids are clear.
- The transition up the frequency range through mids and into highs is relatively smooth.
Edifier R1280DB Active Remote Control Bookshelf Speakers
- The sound is lovely and tuneful. Good bass and midrange and has a nice treble to the sound without being harsh.
- They present a good sound stage on demanding drum & bass tracks which have highly engineered layers and effects and the bass is tight and clear - they don't lose it with fast paced music.
- They sound clear, the bass doesn't overpower the rest of the track and the sound feels full/vibrant.
- The bass response is spot on, even with the trims set to neutral, and there is a good balance of high and mid-range.
- Low frequencies were surprisingly good but the crossover to mids is poor and the small tweeters simply cannot produce the highs that I want.

What customers say about "Features"
Edifier R1850DB
- Good quality materials and cabinet. Multiple inputs and tone controls make this a solid bookshelf speaker.
- Good speakers system, straight forward connection to TV, record deck and play station, bluetooth through my phone excellent.
- The buttons on the remote feel a little on the cheap side but the speakers themselves seem well made and have solid feeling knob functionality.
- Nice cord lengths, and all the cords I needed were included. Bluetooth connects quickly and easily and stays connected all the way back to the master bedroom which is about 60 feet.
- The remote is quite bad and slow. But it can be replaced if you have IR on your phone.
Edifier R1280DB Active Remote Control Bookshelf Speakers
- Bluetooth connection very good and instant. The connection options are a good addition too for different setups and needs.
- The Bluetooth is a great feature allowing us to use them to play music and videos from our phones as well.
- They come with a comprehensive set of connector leads, including fibre optic, which permits connection to a headphone socket as well as the usual standard speaker connections.
- BT connected really quick and a stable connection was maintained, optical worked as expected.
- The remote is crap, just one of those cheap button battery things.
