Dude you got to test the Rockville DPM10B’s I am super curious how they sound compared to quality studio monitors. They look like krk’s kind of but are 3 way and are inexpensive.

[@MattZildjian]

this channel only needs one track for comparison, and that is the mighty METAL HEAD.

[@GabrielACGama]

Now the S360DB sounds like it is supposed to! The bass is deeper/clearer with the S360db, but the treble seems to be better in the other combo. I still prefer the mids from S360DB tough

Could you do this with the Edifier 1850DB + T5? Deciding if getting a T5 to pair along with is worth it. Thanks!

@@samiattia5270 definitely the 1850 + a good budget sub will outperform the 360. Give the T5 a miss, get a good budget sub like the Elac Sub 1010.

@@AbsoluteFidelity why Elac 1010 instead of the T5?

[@AbsoluteFidelity]

@@thirakornsuriyabutjrgensen9348 the 1010 is way more linear making it easier to integrate with the speakers, it doesnt have stupid problems like automatically turning off at lower volumes like the T5, it doesnt have make mechanical noises like woofer rubbing at higher volumes like the T5.

I got Edifier M1370 for ... about 10$ (shop discount, not B-Stock), I used it for my Korg keyboard in exercise sessions. It sounds good and works well since years now! In other words: I was surprised and found Edifier "not bad", if not excellent! Now I consider but hesitate between Edifier S360DB and Adam Audio T7V (nearly same price, Adam sounds to have more notority while T7V is slightly cheaper than S360DB at my place, T7V because of occasional mixing/recording). Can anyone share thought/experience or advice? Many thanks!

@@fralmaralmar7139 ya mate but i replaced them with edi 1700bt + edi sub because i was getting ear fatigue standing in proximity ( desk ). Superb quality speakers for their size, they can fill any room with no effort, very good dynamic drivers clear sounding good separation controlled bass rich mids forward presentation. Would not recommend as desk lissening only at least 2 meters away from them. Im quite an audiophile and my taste is in warmer sounding speakers, slightly cut top end, etc. I can recommend s360db in spacey rooms with space for them to breath, for desk use and warmer less fatigue presentation 1700bt is superb, almost the same separation and clarity for half the price.

Very good dynamic drivers, rich mids, forward presentation, controled bass, decent sound stage, depth and instrumental separation but lacks a bit character, texture in the low mids. I can only recommend them for spacey rooms where they have room to breath and lissen at least 2 meters away like using them near TV, they can fill a room with 0 effort.

[@nickdjurabek6409]

S360 is the winner here. It has much better mid sounds. Better balanced bass. Highs also better than 1700. On test I guess the mic was not directed to the speakers, seems like the mic was installed a little higher. In conclusion as an owner both speakers with subs, I have never regretted that I upgraded my R1855DB (almost the same speakers as 1700, but with sub out option) to S360DB. Actually S360DB is a next level of performance.

Not "bassier" but more wet and wobbely, the Sub of the S360 is dry, to the point and just kicks, when supposed to. The T5 sounds just mushy and overpronounced, maybe its an issue with the crossover or a general T5 Problem, i dont know, but i like the 360sub much better.

Hi guys, I need help. I have visited several sound stores and asked about the Edififer R2850. I have been told that Edifier in general does not provide good sound and this has come to my attention because of the very good comments I have heard on this channel. In my country, Argentina, there is not a single store that has Edifier equipment, except for the official store which, unfortunately, does not have a showroom and they only sell their products online. In other words, I would have to buy it without having heard it. Could you help me decide? Do you think I should "risk" buying it? I have been told that Edifier is not hifi and provides sound far below any hifi stereo system. Is that true? Does this Edififer model worth it? Are there maybe some better options for the same price? Thank you and please excuse me for my bad English.

[@tbrick4970]

edifier speakers are really good both in terms of sound and build quality and theyre really easy to setup, thats the thing i like about edifier, theyre aimed at normal customers while providing superb sound quality

[@lupuradu]

If Logitech on the other hand is regarded as high quality in your country, well, edifier is well over that, people love to just talk even when they have no experience whatsoever. When i got my edifiers r1280t, i thought those were the best 100 euros i've spent in my entire life, it's how pleased i was with them. I upgraded to a different category eventually, got myself a pair of microlab solo 6c, but i didn't let the r1280t go away, they're in my living room, hooked up with my tv and they still rock after 7 years of daily use. I still believe those are the best 100 euros i've spent in my life.

@@lupuradu tbh true, edifier was, is and will always be on top of logitech, most of logitech speakers are bought by people who have no idea how speakers work and think boomy bass is good, the bass on logitech speakers is really mid, not good but also not the worst, its loud but very boomy (which sounds good on some genres of music but not all), the driver quality is really good but their amps suck and thats the only thing that holds logitech speakers back, thats why i like edifier more, their drivers are top quality, their amps are actually built well and dont blow themselves, they can go lower than 40-45hz (which is what some logitech subwoofers high pass filter is set), and they sound really nice

[@derlangsame7813]

The S360

[@yowandbm]

Keep in mind that Edifier S series are better speakers than R series. So even if you can adjust the crossover in this combo R speakers may not sound good as S350/360db as satellites there are more premium/refined and have electronic parts and drivers and cabinets of higher quality. And are tuned as best as they could do it. Some mids are probably sacrificed i.e. not ideal in s350/360db, but they are veeery well integrated. If you are listening like you are supposed to, from distance with woofer between the satellites and NOT satellites on table in front of you and sub below the table near legs, these speakers sound GREAT.

[@nguyenthaithach]

I think you did it wrong with the T5. Because when pairing a stand alone pair of bookshelf speakers with a subwoofer, you need to adjust the crossover frequency control of the subwoofer so that it wont play overlapping with the mid-bass, high-bass and maybe also low-mid frequency of the bookshelf speakers. I own a T5 to pair with my Audioengine A2+, they work fine together, but I need to adjust T5 crossover to only 15% and its volume to be 70%. You will find your own setting with other bookshelf and your taste too. It will sure not playing well if you set all control to neutral when pairing T7 with R1700BT. The Edifier T5 pairing with other 2 satelite speakers will work fine because they are tuned properly already. Anw, keep up your great work, I am staying tuned! //we already had too much of R1700bt videos now, shall we move on with others soon?

[@AbsoluteFidelity]

Get the best edifier speaker that has a sub out you can afford and plug the T5 in. It is way better than the 360 will ever be. Reason is this, you can control crossover with the speaker/T5 combo, you cant with the 350/351/360. You can also adjust bass separately on the speaker and sub but you cant with the 350/351/360. It is also vital to get an edifier speaker with a sub out and not use a Y splitter and all that because edifiers speakers with a sub out have a high pass filter and stops playing lower frequencies that the sub is already playing. Without this high pass filter, your speakers will continue to play frequencies that your sub is playing and make things sound muddy.

[@curedanxiety1679]

​@@AbsoluteFidelityyou are so wrong that it isn't even funny, the only speakers edifier makes that have a sub out are the R series and that's the first problem, the mids and highs are muffled on that series compared to the S series, people really out here yapping on things they barely know the S series will always have more accurate representation on mids, lows and highs.
