Which is better?
Is the price difference justified?
I have the edifiers and they are incredible!
Timely! Thanks! I was hoping to compare the Edifier R1850DB against the Klipsch RP-600M's, can't find that comparison anywhere.
wow, I have heard many Klipsch speakers and they al sound great, now you got me curious to hear Edifier
Audio Electronics I have those Edifier and I will take them any day! They even have bass and treble eq which is very important. I am actually using the Edifiers as my studio monitors in a controlled environment and they have incredible imaging.
Thanks for helping me make up my mind
I have the R-51PMs and this is my 3rd location with them. Paired with SVS SB-1000. Sounds great for a variety of music - reggae, jazz, electronic, pop, bluegrass. Does get a bit fatiguing listening for long periods
I own Magnepan MGIIIa's and the Edifier r1700BT's for a small room. The little Edifiers are so musical and I'm not underwhelmed when I listen to them. I'm not surprised that they compare favorable with the Klipsches.
I have the edifiers 1800 and continue to be amazed how good they sound. They have tone controls at the back so treble can be turned down and bass turned up ever so slightly; and then to my ears they sounds better then their size and price would suggest. Plus I can run my tv and amazon echo on them at the same time without needing to switch sources - I don’t think there are any speakers out there able to do that
R1850DB's sounds incredibly clear too.
Again, when you consider the price gap, Edifier easily beats the Klipsch. The R-51PM's true enemy is S1000mkii's, which I believe would murder them.
Klipsch more warmer sounding in midrange with slightly more bass. Edifier has slightly more treble. Am sure this can be tuned with the tone controls on the Edifier. Plus you can add a sub to the Edifier at the same cost of the standalone Klipsch.
Klipsch R-51PM 👍
yes! Edifiers plays like mobile phone speakers.
It should be taken into consideration that the Klipsch's cost a bit more than twice the price of the Edifier, and (and this is a big "and"), different speakers will excel with different genre's of music. Lstening to these two speakers with a set of Adam T5v's and a Velodyne subwoofer, the Edifier's held their own. On only one music track did the Klipsch's sound better (more lively) - in my opinion of course. The Edifiers seem to do quite well with orchestral and symphonic music. In my mind, I think the Edifier's won based on the variables I outlined above. Save yourself some money and get some.
Not at all in my opinion. Actually, most Edifiers has a V-shaped frequency response, mostly useless for classical music (personal experience with Edifier 1600mkIII), and they have way too much treble. The Klipsch here sounds much more balanced, however, it lacks a bit of dynamism.
Merry 12th of December!
That time of the year again
Please get some fluance ai40/ai60 in here, Kanye yu6 as well
need Klipsch r41m review !
Magnat monitor reference 2a powered speakers.
Are they good for movies for a 2.0 set up in a small living room?
Or they sound very 'flat' so better for studio monitors?
I would like to see the Miccas thrown in here
I want to give one vote to R-51pm ! Thanks for providing this video.
bro you can have almost 2 of r1850db for the price of 1 r-51pm
What would you suggest:
(Edifier s2000mkiii )
Or
(klipsch R51pm + klipsch r120 12” sub )
Main use will be music listening with some movies here and there. Planning on hooking this to tv in living room for now and when budget allows later move this system to a small room with computer and buy a 5.1 for the living room to go with tv.
I kind of like both - edifier for the overall sound + bass (no need of sub, but am i loosing mids and vocal crispness?) , and will the klipsch give more refined mids and highs and sub can solve the bass issue?
Klipsch the fives instead? I have heard many reviewers saying they sound miles better that r51pm. I know they cost 800 dollars but I am assuming you have close to that budget since r51pm aren't cheap either. If your room is small enough you don't need a sub with the fives. Also if your room isn't that big and you want a sub i would go for r100sw klipsch instead 10" sub, it's close to 200 dollars and many audiophile like it.
Is there the hiss sound on r-51pm where many complained?
Love your channel man, really useful and informative imo. I was looking forward to buying a 2.0 set with Bluetooth for my living room setup, what would you recommend? I was choosing between the R1850DB and the R2730DB, currently leaning towards the first ones. Is there anything else in that price range that's better?
What is your budget?
@@DSAUDIOreview R1850DB are 169€
R2730DB are 229€
Anything below 230€ pretty much. Bluetooth Is a must and Optical Input would be appreciated.
@@albertovicinanza Whats the price of r2000db in your country? It is a step above r1850db, class standard 5" and 1" woofer and tweeter
@@nox1cous654 They're like 230€ vs the 170€ of the 1850, I think it's way too over budget.
@@albertovicinanza its a class above, its worth. You said your budget was 230 anyway right?
Hello! Please compare the monitors Adam T5V vs Adam a5x
Certainly a Subwoofer is must to get this speakers rounded. That said the Edifier is hitting well above its price bracket!
They sound about the same. The edifiers are much cheaper but the Klipsch are beautiful with the unique brass cone. Go for R51PM if you don't mind the higher price.
Yeah, Edifier!
R51PM is 400€ more expensive in my country. I think a class above in edifier r2000db that has 5" woofer and 1" eagle eye tweeter that's still 300€ less expensive than this klipsch would give it run for its money.
Klipsch with a sub in the living room.bedroom. r1000-1
R1850DB for the bedroom.
what track is it Metalhead? :) it is good on edifier
Klipsch no mid clarity.... Clean but on flat Muddy sound on the edifier
Is there any speaker around this price that can actually make the Metal Head track sound good?
Lol, I notice that every time. It always sounds like shit
yea everithing sounds like crap when metal is on ..... mackie mr524 is only one sounding decent with metal
pretty much any jbl speaker
Yeah jbls are used alot in concerts too
Why compare both when the price range is way off.. you can buy 2 sets of Edifier from where i am with the Klipsch
KLIPSCH!
qualiy, name and... longlife aluminium speakers of klipsch have a price to pay
People on here are usually just fan boying for the ones they own
1850's sound even better at 200 hrs
Edifier sounds as a "BT party" tipycal speaker, it almost bleeds down and high (wich it seems is a delightful thing for many people) freqs get messed up very quickly so you get a freq chaos. Klipsch sounds a lot more natural, compared to Edifier has better separation and more natural soundstage, I mean soundstage can't be just rumble...
Not a big fan of Klipsch, however if I'd have to choose in this scenario, is the very clear winner.
* When our ears are used to DSP maked up sound (artificial sound) is very difficult appreciate natural sound.
Guitars sound way too dull on the Klipsch, but on Edifier they sound too high, so I guess no winner on the "Metal Head" track.
On the "Mortals" track the original sounds way more detailed and deeper than the other two speakers.
The Edifier sounds more "fun" to listen, but the Klipsch is very good as well.
Also noticed that there is a little more seperation in the edifier's. But they have too much treble.
Ofcourse these videos cant tell all the truth, but this one indicates Klipsch R-51PM as a terrible value for money!
You would expect a much bigger difference. Listening them side by side seems a bit embarracing for Klipsch.
Surely more natural and clear sound, but they sound much smaller than they look.
Feels almost like if you've lowered Edifier's treble a bit, they would sound pretty close.
And costs you THREE sets of R2000db.
I have just ordered the Edifiers 1700BT for 129 Euros (!!) as they sounded more musical to me than the 1850BT. Should do another comparison with the 1700BT. Lets be honest here guys. IN NO WAY is the price difference between the Edifiers and the Klipsch worth it! The klipsch cost 445 Euros! If you disagree you must be delusional! In fact on some occasions the Edifiers sounded better. Can you shed some light please Digital Stereophony as there may be something that I may be missing in this comparison through my current speakers. Seriously a jump from 129 Euros to 445 Euros for what? I can't hear much difference. Very Negligible.
I bought the 1850s. There is no comparison with high end stuff like this though. The Klipsch are a serious pair and you need to hear them in person to believe it. TH-cam only tells you the comparison between high and mids and lows, bit the actual quality
I feel the Klipsch is more warmer in the mids. The Edifiers sound is more forward in the highs and the mids are a bit recessed. Here the volume levels are matched so the only difference you'll hear is in the tonality of the speakers. The total volume and how these speakers sound at different levels is what makes the higher costing speaker more justifiable. But, I still feel that the tone controls on the Edifier along with the fact that you can add a subwoofer with cash to spare compared to the Klipsch makes it a better buy.
No way in heaven or hell will the 1700 sound more musical than the 1850 in real life. The 1850 has a wider soundstage and depth without a jarring treble like the 1700. The 1700 was tuned for lower bass though, because it does not have a sub out.
To me the klipsch sounds cleaner and more natural. I own neither
I don't get why this is the only Edifier speaker with a sub out... makes no sense. not there's anything wrong with it. more options would be nice though.
They recently refreshed a few lower cost speakers with a subout port. The r1700bt being one of them now r1700bts, is essentially a cheaper 1850db without an optical port and a nice wood grain wrapping(which I prefer over piano black). Also rated 5-6w lower(not a big deal), tho idk if there are any significant tuning differences between them.
Both are good monitors edifier gives a bit more clarity on highs with a width..
Source track please! :)
So who copied who looking at the Response :)
Would a comparison or just commented insight between the R51pm and the s2000mkiii be possible? Or the s2000mkiii vs the r1850db maybe? Currently looking to upgrade/try something new from my r1850db's that Ive had for a good while. Im hoping narrow down between the 2 which have the better soundstage and imaging/separation, thanks!
Hope you went with the s2000mkIII
The Klipsches sound better, but both of them are way behind the source track)
S1000mkii vs 1850db
K win
Edifier!!!
Klipsch
I have to be sincere, in my opinion R1850's sounds much clearer than R-51PM's.
KLIPSCH sound is more natural, especially in rock music. Edifier sounds pretty bad at that point. As if in a bucket.
Tone controls on the Edifiers: Waving at you. 😎
Crunchy distorted electric guitar on Edifier
On Klipsch- that same guitar became reverby or echoey
@@Patata0ke tone control does not make the sound natural. it cuts a certain frequency.
@The dhgate 1:1 Replica reviews I'm listening from a 32-bit amplifier capable of automatic room calibration. Pioneer SCLX56
@@onurbesiktas1903 That is why there's a tone control because every person have different taste. Edifier stock flat setting on its tone control is already boosted on the lower end that is why if you want it to sound flatter in your ears you can reduce the bass. :)
I don't hear that big of difference. Anyone saying one is alot better than other are just fanboying
There isn't much difference, you're right. So a sane person gets the 1850's as they are almost 1/3 the cost of the Klipsch. Not a fanboy, I just have a brain.
@@karlhungus545 to be fair the klipsch sounded better. Cost difference better I don't know
Edifier Wins !!! ???
Yes, for the price and the quality for the price it provides ..
People get all hard for Klipsch, but let's get real here. The R51PM's are almost THREE TIMES the price of the 1850's ($740 CAD vs $250 CAD)! There is no sane human that could listen to this and say with a straight face that they sound three times better...unless you're just trying to justify for yourself spending triple? More like Brand Hype. I can get the Edifier S350DB's for $410 CAD (with the sub) and still save $330 over the R51PM's. 🙄
Edifier brighter
原声最好٩(•̤̀ᵕ•̤́๑)ᵒᵏᵎᵎᵎᵎ
They both sound okay and I can't really tell a major difference but honestly they don't sound that great they sound like I'm listening to a.... cell phone., 🙄🤪😁
clipsch midrange doesn’t exist 🥴
Klipsch clearly sounds better then the Edifiers, better luck next time Edifiers and all hail our new aural overlords the Klipsch!!! Yay!!
Compare an Edifier that costs the same as the Klipsch, the Klipsch will sound like crap
They both sound bad to me.
I listen on AUDIO PRO T14 and... think same.
So what should I buy?
I could get the S3000 Pro for the price of the R51PM... and change. And the S3000 Pro would shit on the Klipsch. LMAO!
Fanboy lmao
@@j.johnson2792 guess you dont know what the s3000 pro sounds like. But i cant blame a sheep.
Klipsch is miles ahead in this test.
No they aren't
@Xavier Flavor I own both and the edifiers are leaps better, lol.
I'm listening through sennheiser hd650... Edifiers sucks, honestly. Nothing compared to the klipsch
This edifier is 380€ less expensive than klipsch in my country. Something like r2000db or s2000pro would go on par or beat this klipsch while still being 300€ and 100€ less expensive than klipsch.
well my senn hd800's disagree with you and say the edifiers shit all over those klips
