Review on Edifier R1280T Active Bookshelf Speakers - 2.0 Stereo Near Field Monitors - Wooden Enclosure - 42 Watts RMS - Ideal for Studio Monitoring by Amit Kumar ᠌

Revainrating 2 out of 5

I do not advise buying this product, there is nothing to praise here.

The speakers are decent, but apparently the quality of the materials has begun to limp, and the assembly is also possible. I bought the speakers, plugged it in. and got high on the sound and its detail, worked with the creative audigy SE card, but the buzz didn't last long, on the 3rd day the left speaker started to rattle (most likely from the midrange), and at any volume, respectively, the speakers were immediately sent to the service center where they issued a troubleshooting report and I took the same ones in the store (just like the first ones, not a display case, but completely sealed from the warehouse). But like the first time, the pleasant moments from listening to music did not last long, and more precisely 5 days, on the 6th day they were returned to the service center, this time the tweeter on the same left speaker wheezed. This problem was demonstrated in the service and an act was issued again, this time I took the money, since there was nothing suitable in this price category (4990). In the first and second cases, the speakers were listened to at medium volume, I didn’t twist them to the full, so I don’t know what caused these unpleasant moments. Good luck with your purchases, check the acoustics carefully.

Pros
  • The sound is really high, clear and detailed.
Cons
  • poor quality materials or workmanship

I took it as computer speakers. Probably, he initially chose the wrong role for these speakers: near the computer, something less powerful is needed, and with a separate subwoofer.
