Review: Edifier R1280T Speakers - Exceptional Sound at an Affordable Price - The Edifier R1280T speakers have been a fantastic addition to my setup. These bookshelf speakers deliver rich, clear sound with impressive depth for their price range. The 4-inch bass driver and 13mm silk dome tweeter provide a well-balanced audio experience that works perfectly for both music and movies. The sound is detailed without being overwhelming, offering a warm, natural tone that fills the room. One of the standout features is the adjustable tone control on the side panel, allowing me to fine-tune the bass and treble to my preference. The remote control is also a convenient feature, making it easy to adjust volume or switch input sources without getting up. The build quality is solid, with a classic wood finish that looks stylish and professional in any setting. The speakers are compact enough to fit on my desk but still produce excellent sound quality for a variety of content. For the price, the Edifier R1280T speakers are an excellent value, offering clear, balanced sound and flexibility in a beautiful design. They’re ideal for anyone looking for high-quality desktop speakers without breaking the bank. Highly recommended!
Review: I am amazed at the clarity - Purchased these after a lot of deliberation between these and the R1700BT. For my kind of liking, I preferred the more spatial sound of the 1280s. I saw a lot of one to one sound reviews on youtube but each time ended preferring these. These are tiny in size but powerful and more than big in sound for their size and use them as my desk top speakes. Being powered, these are plug and play and would form an ideal desktop companion to your pc's. I am amazed at the clarity. I own a bigger set up of Bose 301 + Norge Concert Gold amp. But... But I love these little darlings more due to the clarity. Unfortunately the bose and norge combination is harsh on the treble and over emphasizes the bass. I am also amazed at the consistency of the frequencies both at low and high volumes. Even at full volumes the bass is tight and treble is crystal clear. What hooked me to these speakers was the ability to throw out spatial sound. I use them as a stereo pair and am amazed at their sound stage and presence in my 12x15 ft room. I use logitech bt adapater on one of the RC plugs and have the other for my radio. The pc is hooked via bt to the logitech. There is no need of any switches to switch the inputs. One can play both sources simultaneously. If you are looking for a near field speaker with emphasis on clarity then these suit this need pretty well. You will be amazed at the way these small speakers produce such clear notes which are in the range of around 80% to the notes from speakers around 3-5 times the price of these. That is why these are compared with some of the best bookshelf speakers, although not really in their range. These can pretty well be used for a small home party too as they can get just that loud too. The remote is quiet handy if you use them as TV speakers and sit away from them. The only cons are not related to the sound but the smell these emanate out of the box, the radio interference they have on my radio fm reception, but with an external antenna the problem is solved. If you are confused and ask my opinion between these and the 1700s I will suggest go for the 1280 due to their very high sound to price index. Edit on 4-june-2019- they work fine even today. However I am not sure if it is my ears or what but they sound harsh as they reproduce notes clearly and at near field my ears ache please note.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Boosted bass sounds muddy. Sound improves a lot with equalizer. Not returnable, unless defective.
*by S***R on 5 October 2019*

How's the sound Quality?: The midrange is clean, however the higher frequencies and the lower frequencies are not that clear. In slow paced music, the speaker sounds great. But for fast-paced genres like rock etc., it sounds muddier, which forces me to switch it off. In my Koss porta-pro, these songs sound really sweet, but Edifier R1280T gives me headache with them. Remote Control: Works only if you point it directly towards the left speaker. It doesn't respond in all directions unlike some other remotes like that of Tatasky. Is it value for money?: I really don't know. But, given the so many great online reviews, it could be. Something better than these speakers would actually cost a lot more. Return policy: Even though Amazon says, it is returnable, it is not. It can only be returned in case, you received a defective/ damaged product. This does not make sense, as one would ask for replacement in that case. One would like to return only if he is not satisfied with the sound quality. There is no other reason possible. This is why, this product is actually NOT returnable. So, if you are buying, make sure, that you know how it sounds, or be prepared to accept it, however it sounds. If you can buy offline, please do, because, in that case, you can listen in person, before purchasing. I had inquired from both the sellers Edifier online retailer, as well as ProAudioHome. Both agreed, that I can return speakers on this basis, but, Amazon denied my return request. Edit: Review after 20 days: If you use equalizer in your laptop/phone/audio device and turn down base by 3dB for all frequencies below 240Hz, this speaker sounds crystal clear. All the muddy base is gone. You can keep the knobs for bass and treble on the speaker in the middle. No need to change that.
