Excellent pair of Bluetooth stereo speakers
Awesome set of speakers for the price! Easy setup and fits naturally into a room if you have mostly wood furnishings. They seem tough and should last a long time; felt solid when putting them up on a shelf. Bluetooth was easy and natural; especially appreciate that the Bluetooth doesn’t work when a phone call is initiated. Excellent sound quality!

Just what I was looking for!
I love these speakers! Great sound at an affordable price. Not only do they look great but I love that I can connect them directly to my turntable (which has a built in pre-amp) and also have the option to connect them to my phone / laptop through Bluetooth. Other great features are being able to adjust the treble and bass and the remote makes it easy to turn them on/off or adjust the volume from across the room. They are just what I was looking for!

Great speakers. Horrible remote. Replaced with a cheap programmable remote
Great value for the money. Terrific sound. Only downside is the remote control. You have to be within 3-4 feet of the speaker and point the remote directly at the IR sensor on the left side of the speaker. Even then it’s iffy.I ended up buying a cheap $11 universal remote (CHUNGHOP L102 Learning Remote). It was a pain to program (poor instructions) but once programmed it worked flawlessly from anywhere in the living room.

Loving these for sound and functionality!
I recently picked up the Edifier R1280DB speakers to pair with my record player, and I couldn’t be happier with the choice. These speakers strike a perfect balance between vintage charm and modern convenience. The wooden finish gives them a classic, timeless look—right at home next to my vinyl setup—while the Bluetooth and multiple input options make them incredibly easy to use with today’s equipment.Sound-wise, they deliver a rich, full-bodied tone that brings my records to life. The warmth in the midrange and the clarity in the vocals are exactly what I wanted for that authentic analog sound. I also appreciate that the bass and treble controls let me fine-tune the audio depending on what I’m spinning—whether it’s an old jazz record or a modern pressing.They’re not just great for vinyl, either. I’ve connected them to my laptop and phone to stream music, and they perform wonderfully across all formats. Overall, the Edifier R1280DBs deliver an impressive blend of style, sound quality, and versatility. If you’re a vinyl lover looking for affordable powered speakers that do justice to your records, these are a fantastic pick.

Big high quality sound out of a small package
I’ve had these for about 4 years now and they have held up great. The sound quality is phenomenal, plenty of power, and the looks blend in in pretty much any environment. I have these hooked up to my TV via the Optical input to get the best sound quality possible. I haven’t tried hooking them up via RCA, but Bluetooth and Optical is great. I was able to control the volume of these with my Fire tv remote, which is a huge plus. They’re louder than I ever need them to be in my bedroom, sound quality is fantastic when using Optical input. They may be a little quiet for large spaces.

Great sound for the price…
Dont normally write a procuct review but this one deserves one. Did not expect the sound quality and craftmanship of these speakers. They are amazing. I am using them in the 12′ x 12′ den on bookshelfs and the sound is great for the price. I have a wired RCA cabled turntable for LPs and also use the BT for playing streaming music and in all cases the sound is great. It also comes with a remote which is nice for volume and audio in switching. The remote is not large or a totally full fuction remote, however it also turns them off and on out of standby mode…. nice feature.

Edifier R1280DB
These are hands down the best speakers I have ever bought! The sound quality is amazing and their ability to connect to different things makes them so versatile! I currently have them connected to my monitors via the optical out and the sounds are crisp and clear! The base is fantastic and because of the optical cable, there is no sound lag for games (clone hero or any other music game on consoles or pc). The 3.5 millimeter jack to RCA (analog) is perfect for plugging into your DVD player, Blu-ray player, or television with these inputs. Watch movies or tv with fantastic sound quality! Then it comes with an RCA to RCA cable. All of these options are there to make it easier for you to use these speakers. Last but not least the Bluetooth! Do you feel like just jamming out to some apple music? Do you have a record player with Bluetooth capabilities, well this is perfect for either scenario! You can jam out with the music on your phone or you can have these speakers next to your bluetooth record player and blast your music! I have been using them for music on my phone and it is a great experience. I would truly recommend these speakers to anyone! If you can catch them on sale, I would highly advise you to pick these up. Use them for just about anything you want!
