S1000W POWERED SPEAKERS FROM EDIFIER. VS KANTO AND XTZ SPEAKERS, BLUETOOTH, WIFI, VINYL & MORE!

[@TheAudiophileMan]

As has been correctly pointed out, the Audioengine speakers mentioned in the early part of this video should have been listed as Airpulse. Here's a link to the review of the A80s, if you would like to see that very same review: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpmwfpqvidJoedE

I purchased my Edifier s1000w yesterday based on your recommendation and I am very happy with them. I Airplay 2 them with a pair of Wharfedale Lintons and this gave me a great result. Nice to have the surround sound with 4 great sounding speakers.

[@Nigel-nar53]

I have a pair of Edifier S3000Pro powered speakers and I never cease to be amazed by them. Thanks for your reviews. Cheers.... 👍

[@lfcmarkeb7124]

I've a pair also, heavy buggers lol. currently in a pair of kitchen stools as stands. considering the Edifier purpose made stands at around £100 , but as you say they sound great

[@roytatum9517]

To encourage listening to music outside of smartphone speakers I gave both my daughters Edifier speakers. They are affordable speakers, easy to connect to, have tone controls and they sound good. My youngest daughter inherited some vinyl from a relative and so I donated a Fluance RT-81 turntable, Schiit Phono amp and Schiit Modi Dac. The Schiit gear are older models that I was not using. I threw in a $$99 Wiim streamer. This is an inexpensive starter hi fi system that is ably served by the powered Edifier speakers. Very good base and overall good tone. The system had very good stereo image. No large boxes and easy to connect and use. And yes very good sound for the money. I can’t recommend Edifier speakers enough. They are a very good choice for affordable music listening and can be upgraded later by adding a good affordable dac etc. I thank you for reviewing this pair and also for your review of the Fluance turntable some time ago. I appreciate your work. Keep on introducing brands that you don’t normally see in hi-fi circles. Especially affordable quality gear. On that note - hopefully one day you might review the affordable Schiit Audio range of affordable but seriously good products.

[@richardsinger01]

Schiit gear is very difficult to get hold of in the uk. Pretty much everything is permanently sold out - or it was every time I looked. I’ve give up on it.

How have you connect speakers wifh a DAC?

[@roytatum9517]

The Edifier speaker has two sets of line level inputs. One is linked to the DACs line out and the other to the phono preamp. A remote control switches between the inputs. Or you can switch manually on the speaker.

Cheers from Denver and thank you for your review, Paul. To my great surprise, my wife bought these for me as a birthday present last month (I'm so lucky, I know). I had placed them on a wish list based solely on numerous online reviews from trusted sources. I had never actually listened to them so when I received them I was worried I'd regret my impulsiveness. I could not have been more pleased after setting them up and playing a multitude of my favorite tracks. Slightly toed in on my standup desk in my office, they provide far better sound than I was expecting or hoping for. They are not small nor are they light but neither is their performance. They're pushing the limits of price and size for a desktop setup but I absolutely recommend them for a smaller or even main system. They're absolutely fantastic.

[@TheAudiophileMan]

This is useful advice because I didn't talk about near field in my review - I'll feature this within this Friday's video, if you don't mind Martin. Thanks.

[@BMWHP2]

Best review on the Edifier S1000W i have seen so far. Thanks from the Netherlands.

[@M1M25]

Why have I only just found this channel - it’s brilliant

[@TheAudiophileMan]

Thank you.

[@bobmalocca8534]

I had edifier R1280T great wee set at the time but when ye get up to that price range I'd be going for the klipsch powered speakers I've them a few months now build quality and sound quality is top notch. Great video paul I was one of the edifier requests a few years ago 😀 👍

[@Mark-OutWest]

Well the Klipsch fives have lots of serious problems. I wouldn't accept them for free. Klipsch may be great with passive speakers....

[@miononno]

great review! thank you

[@kingie66]

Are these just S1000 MKII with added connections, or brand new parts and tuning?

[@grahamclutterbuck583]

Thanks for that. Edifier appear to be able to produce quality product at an affordable price.

[@jjuzo]

Thank you for reviewing this, - an excellent review. As a brand Edifier are very underrated in some circles. I have the Edifier S2000MKIII which I use with a Music Hall mmf-1.5 turntable (with Audio Technica AT-VMN95ML) and a little Fosi tube buffer phono pre-amp - it's been absolutely fantastic, great detail, dynamics and soundstage. Using these with a solid turntable and stylus really makes a great set up to listen to records. You don't have to got nuts spending too much to get deeply in to the music I really got back in to my vinyl during the pandemic and Edifier are a very affordable option if you enjoy listening to a wide range of musical styles on vinyl.

[@laptech3767]

I might be interested in getting the s2000mkiii. Want to upgrade from r1700bt

[@jds2689]

Beautyfull speakers, and nice review, thanks.

[@stefaandecroo6774]

Dear Paul, Thank you very much for another brilliant and very interesting review. These speakers are very nice looking and seem to sound very good. I am in love . . . again. Your fault that is Paul. But the most important thing is that Belgium loves you very much. All my best wishes. Take care, be safe, always. :-)

[@banginghats2]

Thanks for the review. Can they be used close to a rear wall like the advertising pictures suggest? You would think that rear port would cause problems. Also, are they good nearfield? The sloping front seems to suggest desktop use (?).

[@TheAudiophileMan]

You need to experiment in terms of taste re. Bass performance but I wouldn’t place them right next to the wall. The sloping front, as I say in the video may relate more to driver timing. For near field, the Edifiers may be too large for some in terms of physical presence but they will provide a powerful option if you’re after a big rig sound from a PC, for example. Just give it quality components to feed off to make the most of its excellent sound.

[@banginghats2]

@@TheAudiophileMan Thanks for the info.

[@FranklovesBunnies]

Hi which is better the S1000W or the klipsch the fives ?

[@luton_gmanrock]

Greeting from the Republic of Ireland from your regular PITA....👋☘

[@markc5677]

How did you listen to KZbin music through the Wi-Fi network through these speakers?Did you use a separate chromecast device?

[@lfcmarkeb7124]

I've a set of Edifier S3000 Pro speakers which i use with my rega P1 and Spartan 5 phono stage, i think they sound great

[@wiltonlewis5369]

Try listening to the Ruark MR1 Mk2 powered speakers. They are excellent.

[@rizkysilitonga4252]

Hai Sir, i just curious, which better between Edifier s 1000W or Edifier S 1000 mk ii, if we ignore the new feature connections. Thank so much

[@marinmarinov8660]

Just listened to this video on Edifier r1850 :) I never saw this brand to make his way to hi-fi, but probably S1000 is different beast. Mine however are ok for youtube and some casual stuff.

[@stadtjer689]

Reviews have mentioned that the sound control on the remote isn’t as fine as many people would have wanted, resulting in an often too low or too high volume. This lack of steps would be very bothersome to me. What was your experience during use?

[@mattsmith9471]

Hi there, I have a question. With the S1000W speakers, if you have your turntable hooked up to your speakers, do u experience a sound drop for about a split half a second about a minute or 2 into the record. The reason I ask is because I experience that. I will start ti play a record at the beginning of the side and about a minute or 2 into the song , the sound drops. Please let me know if this happens to you. Thank u. 22:16

[@yourtubisfilled7164]

Your picture for the AudioEngine A80 is actually the Airpulse A80; a very different, much more advanced beast. At least, I own the slightly bigger brother: the Airpulse A100's and they are awesome as a near field desktop setup. Especially with a sub connected to them. Airpulse is in fact manufactured by Edifier in participation with speaker designer Phil Jones and marketed as a premium hifi brand.

[@TheAudiophileMan]

It was a label mistake - apologies. Here's my review of the Airpulse A80. Despite Mr Jones' association, the speakers have issues: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gpmwfpqvidJoedE

[@yourtubisfilled7164]

​@@TheAudiophileMan Ah I see, thank you for clarifying. And for linking your review on them. I must say I only use my A100's over USB and I had 0 no complaints so far in close to three years. The sound has evolved to be somewhat less sibilant in the highs in that period too. The mid drivers are a bit larger on the A100 so maybe that helps with the mids a little compared to the A80's.

[@tombarnes5490]

You should give the Buchardt A500 active speaker a peek. You won’t be disappointed :)

[@TheAudiophileMan]

Thanks for the tip, Tom.

[@Edifier_NorthAmerica]

🔥🔥

[@gunstargizmo]

It's weird that their older models support AptX HD, but not this. This reduces the hi-res sources to just coax and optical.

[@pixelreflectorpro]

WiFi also can do hi res

[@bennyman1036]

Also RCA can do Hi Res

[@toucan221]

I'll drink to that! Speaker smoothie 😁😁

[@agnelroshandsilva3929]

Hi There. nice review. I own both the edifier S3000 Pro and the edifier S2000 Mk III. Both are excellent with the former having a brighter tonality and the latter having a warmer tonality. Edifier is high on the Value for Money Quotient. I had a question though. Does the S1000 W support Apple Music? Does apple music need to be cast from a phone or does the speaker have it built in?

[@TheAudiophileMan]

Thank you and you will need to case Apple Music.
