My exploration and research into Edifier started with 1280T, and then it led into another level up, another level up, and I ended up getting S2000MKIII speakers. After about a year, Optical input died, and after contacting Edifier, I was shipped brand new set which works great on my gaming setup
Thanks for the video. I'm a filmmaker. I purchased both to test during a recent edit. The MR4 is cleaner and a superior monitor (with discrete monitor mode) for that purpose. I'm returning the R1280TS.
The R1280Ts, paired with the T5 Sub from Edifier, sound good for the price. I use those with the Topping E30. I spent 330€ for everything and I'm really happy with this choose.
Unfortunately for Us or other people from 3rd countries, 300 something $ or € is what most of us made in a month. Yes food price, gas price, or real estate price here is lower. but sometimes I feel jealous to 1st countries with extremely cheap electronics and vehicles so you can have better lifestyle.
Went for Edifier MR4 since my soundcard has got TSR outputs for monitors. Very decent for the price. Had a chance to compare them with Fluid Audio F4, Fluid are flatter and has got better separation but Edifier is pretty close, especially if placed correctly.
Thanks for the video. If I may ask an off-topic question: could you do a tutorial on improving Wifi signal strength on Linux? For some reason, I watch the signal go from strong, to weak, to strong again, to disconnecting entirely, then reconnecting right away....very frustrating. I have noticed this issue on Parrot OS, Mint, Lubuntu, etc. Thank you again.
👍for the comparison demonstration of the speakers. MP4 sound more voluminous and cleaner, very close to the original, just what you need for your computer. I did not like the sound of the R1280TS at all, they sound deaf and muddy, there is no channel separation, as if the speakers were bolted to the trash can. The fact that they have a bit more bass doesn't make them any better, they are bass heavy, so they have a dull and muddy sound.🪣🔉🎶
I have buy the mr4 now.. and i know how the 1280 sound.. the mr4 clarity is real good for its price but its lack of bass.. if u r more to bass.. go for the 1280..
Based on youtube demo? unless you hear them with your own ears or look at the speaker's freq graph, don't judge a speaker, especially not from youtube.
I wondering whats the difference in choosing between: A) RCA to 3.5mm B) 3.5 mm To 3.5 mm AUX front input, if i want to connect to my device such as laptop/phone/tab Is any obvious difference or just personal preference? I recently bought mR4 for my laptop desk mainly to connect with my instrument using audio interface 🙏 Please someone give advice. Thansk
Do I even need external speakers ? I currently use my notebook's speakers. Plus can use my wired Koss The Plug earphones if I need higher quality (music, some movies). The notebook speakers are fine for speech (youtube, videoconferencing, ...). And they take zero taking care of. Should I buy EDIFIER R1280DB, to be put onto my desk ? How will they compare with Koss The Plug earphones sound quality? Will I be happy?
I wanna got me some 1280DBS !!! I need them for Music (Listing) and PC Games... I Heard a lot about "Bringing the trebble to 100% will improve the sound quality alot" is that true ? And Thank you soooo much for this Compare 🥰 btw sorry for my English, its not the best i know... :D
@@KnowledgeSharingTech wich one would you recommend for mostly listing to music and watching Videos ? R1280DBS or MR4 ? Btw i can get the R1280dbs for the same price (100€) as the MR4. I have a small (like 15m²) room to cover, wich one would you prefer ?
Wow that comparison is exactly what I searched for, unbelievable lol. 1 question tho 😅 I'm looking into these two options to replace my Logitech Z-2300 2.1. Is it possible to use the Subwoofer of the Z-2300 with the R1280T or MR4? (I read somewhere that it would work safely if I split the audio signal with a Y-adapter connected to my PC or sth like that?)
Because most of the people that buy speakers around 100-120$ don't use a 300$ DAC to power them up ? This is kind of stupid to do such tests , people buy budget speakers for a reason I'm laughing so hard from tests of 50-120$ speakers that are tested with DAC's that are at least 3times more expensive than the speakers itself , If I have a 120$ budget for speakers I'm sure I don't have a 300$ lying around for a good quality DAC to power them up , ill use them to connect to PC or mobile.
@@Integroabysal Well he could've at least tested it with some budget audio interface such as Steinberg UR22 or Behringer UM2 which are about 50 euros, so it's not audiophile DAC but still better than phone or on-board PC audio sources just for a more complete comparison.
@@jibrilxisreal8037depends on your needs. If you just want to enjoy music MR4 are great for the buck. If you want studio monitors I'd recommend saving up and buying some entry level monitors from brand like Mackie. MR4 aren't really flat even in "monitor mode".

1280t, Mr4 or 1700bt which is good for music listening experience? Can you help me please.

@@taigalaar tak identycznie
Thank you, this helped a lot
Did we listen to the same sounds..? Completely opposite opinion...
Into your set up sound test i think the speaker will not sound as good to produce its full potential use other source
Speakers produce different sound. I like MR4.

Is this only happening on Linux? Try to change the band from 5 to 2.4 or vis-versa

I have a rt1700 model n its blown a week ago.. do u suggest this mr4 or 1280
1280

R1280 are muddy and bass sounds overdone I prefer MR4

thank you for the comparison! is the R1280TS and the R1280DB are actually the same?
Sound wise, yes, they are the same.
DB has no sub out
@@Goodman12363 but DBS has, so the best option is R1280DBS
The 1280T, Ts, DB and DBs all have a slightly different sound, though the differences are tiny. The DB is imho the best 1280.

No difference in Sound quality
@@KnowledgeSharingTech Ok thank you for the answer.. now I am satisfied, This matter confuses me who is an starter😃
Hello. Thank you for demo. I guess it wont be an issue if i RcA them to a DAC, and not straight to the PC?
Didn't try it but I think it will work

the r1280t has a sub out so you can go from speaker to sub. the mr4 doesnt so you will need a splitter from the source that goes to both
@@jstevo1349 thanks! :)
sold my Google Nest Audio.
While the smart speaker was cool for a few months, it's not enough for a nerd.
Plus my main goal here is for my guitar
hi, i have a question. what if adding t5 subwoofer to mr4, will it match the sound quality?
No, the sound quality of the R1280TS is clearer on all frequencies and not just lows
I'm curious as well
can i connect T5 sub with MR4??
04:41 05:01
👏👏👏😎
1280 without grills sound is much better!
Please review Edifier Rt1700BT 🙏
Noted
the r1280ts would have sounded better with the grilles off
I tried both with and without covers and the sound is the same.
@@KnowledgeSharingTech nevermind, I thought it was the R1280T
The sound is NOT the same, I think your ears are getting tired
Yes, but what do they sound like when you play music through them?....lol
Now we know that R1280TS is worse than MR4
R1280TS is better by far
What's the source just your phone plugged into the speaker? that is a horrible source.. why aren't people testing with a proper DAC?
