The major difference between the R1700BT and R1700BTs is the BTs has a subwoofer output. That's a huge consideration for some people.

Great review Ryan. I just received my R1700BTs today. I followed along with everything you stated about the speakers and I agree with mostly all you said. When I went out to pick up the box (Amazon delivered), I was quite surprised at the weight of the box. I had to readjust my stance to maintain the weight of these speakers. I unboxed them and placed them on my bookshelf of my office. They are very aesthetically attractive and they put out a great sound. I will probably purchase another pair for one of the other rooms in my house. Thanks Ryan!

Great review!! Buying them!!! ... love your hair!!😎😁

You are awesome man!! i like your videos,your editing and your jokes. Keep it up! im a fan

I added these to my random surround sound in my small living room and they really sound great and balance the sound great in combo with my old Early 2000s passive Polk set and random pioneer I have in center. Also use them with my turntable and they sound great but themselves to.

That subwoofer output on the bts was something i didn’t even learn about in my prepossible purchase obsessive research. Something i might consider for 10 more dollars if i’d ever like to hook up a sub to these

I have nothing but great things to say about these speakers, easily one of the best additions to my gaming setup and you can seriously get some high fidelity sound from these. Also would be great for a home theater because the bass punches without a subwoofer. don't even really need a subwoofer though and I'm a basshead.

Awesome vid. just a suggestion, you should put the mic at the listening position in order for us to get a more accurate frequency response.

I had numerous Edifiers - 1280dbs, S880, 2000db, D12, even Airpulse A200 which is premium Edifier sub-brand. For music enjoyment and simply listening 1700BT and D12 beat them all.

How do you think they compare with the r1010bt and the Presonus Eris 3.5 as reference monitors and for production/mixing? Just a newby on a budget.

Just out of curiosity how did you hook these up to your PC? I’m an audio noon. Do I need a DAC? Did you keep the speakers hooked up to each other or each one directly to your motherboards direction audio output?

How do you plug this into the audio interface?? I have an Audiobox USB96...

I heard the edifier 1280t which are pretty darn popular, and even tho they sounded great, I thought the resolution in the highs was just not crisp enough for my liking. They sounded good but a little veiled. I want to know your opinion on the highs specifically. I've never heard big "good" monitors, only through headphones, so I don't really know what to expect from this price

Im looking for use this on my setup with a technics and a djm 700 s, is better go to a pro speaker or this could be good? Im a professional dj but never see one of this

@jazzforever4631

Жыл бұрын

Well Presonus Eris 3,5 are recording monitors. In another word a production tool. They are almost flat, even emphesize mid range, which is important for having real picture what in mix IS WRONG. So for casual listening they might cause fatique. And they likely resonant round 100-150 Hz. Might tbe he result of Bass Reflex (I have filled it with foam). But Edifier is for daily enjoy of listening of various audio material. They sound incredibly pleasant. Technically wise, it is advanced one. They have Bi-Amping, tweeters have its own stereo amplifier and woofers as like. So they have four pin cable. inter box connection And they have built in "loudness" device ballancing high and lows on various power settings. I use both Eris and Edifier in studio. Eris for critical reference (like "aurratone") and Edifier giving me the real picture how listener hears my music.

The sub will most likely make a difference, however the R1700BTs version comes with a sub I believe as well.

Love the review, but these - are not studio monitors. They are quite biased and bass heavy, which can be eq'ed easily - meant for an easy connectivity/ consumer listening. I mean you can use them, if you need for your mixing, but would not as flat as Mackies or Yamahas would get. And they do not have 1/4 inch in for a proper Audio interface.

Thanks for the great content!

Thanks in advance! Subscribed :)

@jimbeam7160

The BT is not on, until you turn it on. When BT is on, there is a little blue light that tells you....when not using BT, the little green light is on. Believe me....you'll want the BTs because of the sub out, and because it's an updated speaker with the 5.O blue tooth Codec. Wait, you don't like using Bt? Well.....the BTs has sub out. You'll eventually want to connect a sub to fill out the low end wherever you set your bridge. I used the 1700BTs for a couple of months without the sub......and finally got The Edifier T5 powered sub, and.......it was a big change...a big difference. I doubt there is any other speaker below $500 bucks that can compete with the 1700 BTs connected to a decent sub. I doubt there is a better-cheaper sound signature for $285 (1700BTs costs $160 + Edifier T5 sub for $125). You could look at this speaker if you aren't gonna use blue tooth and don't want a sub: www.edifier.com/us/en/speakers/r2000db-bookshelf-speaker-bluetooth-optical-rca Not too long ago, Edifier knocked the price down to $200 as a St. Patrick's day sale. It's got a bigger woofer and an older BT codec.

Donut is a new one, haven't heard that before! I had this conversation with another person that also believes these aren't studio speakers. Again, Edifier markets them that way so I used that in the video, but it's possible they are not true studio monitors. If that's the case, Edifier should really fix that.

They have no bass!! And before audiophiles jump to my neck, yes they only have 60Hz+ response but there is no compression to the point that you can't hear instruments with some songs. DO NOT buy these as speakers for your computer, in fact, do not buy these at all. Luckily I got the S version which supports a subwoofer which I'm waiting for because otherwise these are useless.
