Well, These are the exact copy of the Fenda R60bt model speaker, an Indian Brand called "Fenda Audio". The grills had F&D logo on it, but it was removed ( you can see the two holes on the bottom of the grill ). And the Amp on the back got replaced ( This may tell why they are 80 watts and not 120 watts as the R60bt were 120 watts ). The F&D R60bt were 60Watts each ( 120W total output ), and the amazon basics are 40W each ( 80W total output ). Apart from some minor changes mentioned above the amazon basics speaker is exact copy of F&D R60bt, Although the F&D R60bt costs around 7,000 - 10,000 Rupees (100 - 130 USD). I personally own the F&D R60bt , and I can tell that the audio of R60bt is far better than the amazon basics copy. But at 50USD the amazon basics are kindoff good. [ I think the price fluctuation is due to the scam they are doing with fenda audio speakers ]

Why is it so hard to find a reasonably priced powered speaker in an optical and analouge input, dammit. A dac and passive speakers are generally more expensive
