Edifier S1000DB Brown Active Audiophile Bookshelf Studio Speakers with Bluetooth aptX & Multiple Input Connections

Product Information

These speakers come with their controls on the rear side. Therefore, you will have to face some difficulty if you like to tinker frequently with the controls and adjustments. Edifier doesn’t mention which type of wood it has used in the construction of these speakers. The speakers are made of solid wood. It’s not vinyl like the one you see in R1700BT or in this case, the S2000PRO, despite claims that it is made from solid wood. Overall they sound great. These speakers would be perfect for an outdoor setting, (in the dry weather of course), such as a family BBQ due to the sound being able to carry and project itself. Summary and Verdict

These speakers also come with Bluetooth connectivity and support aptX codec, similar to the R1000DB. However, Edifier mentions it is built with solid wood, but it is actually only printed on. At this price point, you would expect a much more premium product. This is not the case with the S1000DB as it does feel luxurious and matches its price point. This will come especially handy if you pair your speakers with multiple Bluetooth devices. Edifier S2000Pro These speakers boast high-end audiophile specs as they come with a flat diaphragm and a 5.5-inch woofer. You will find multiple connectivity features here as well. Connect wirelessly using Bluetooth 4.0 or use any of the wired connections including RCA, Aux, or XLR ports for inputs.I also really like the grills that protect the driver, the partially exposed tweeter gives a bit of modern style paired with the more classic wood design of the speaker body. But, be careful not to bash them, the metal grill covering the tweeter is fairly weak, it’s more for style than substance. S2000Pro speakers are even bigger than S1000DB, and of course, they are heavier too. The dimensions of these speakers are 20.28-inch x 17.32-inch x 14.57-inch and they weigh around 41 pounds in total.

The only problem here is the plastic grilles these speakers have on their front. And Edifier has covered them with fabric. It might be a bit of unfair criticism, but these plastic grills don’t go well with the quality of wooden panels. Controls Edifier S1000DBBut you will significantly notice the mechanical displacement over time, S1000DB will start sounding better, even better than S2000Pro. Edifier S2000Pro And it’s just not about the controls and sound quality with these speakers. S2000Pro looks aesthetically very pleasing with its wooden panel that will enhance the ambiance of your room. Sometimes I’ll read an instruction booklet that has been written by someone who isn’t a native English speaker and it’s not very well written but, this one has been done well. Overall, I can describe S2000Pro as neutral when talking about its overall sound quality. But the sound that comes out of these speakers tends towards being pleasantly warm particularly in the midrange.

Size Edifier S1000DB These speakers come with 5.5-inch woofers, but the robust panels and cabinets of these speakers deliver a solid sound. And the overall response is punchy and deep. With these specs, these speakers can achieve a frequency response ranges from 48 Hz to 20 kHz. It means these 240W speakers can handle low and midrange sounds fairly well. And they won’t mess up the bass either. However, with every audio setup, I always recommend you buy a subwoofer.

These speakers come with inbuilt amplification and power supply. You will find this setup inside the right-hand speaker. Perhaps a longer cable would prove to be very functional but you will have to place these speakers close to your power outlet. It will connect to your wireless devices easily and very handy especially if you have different wireless devices up and running. And at this price point, the availability of this number of options is usually considered to be a hit. It’s all about that BASS! This isn’t a 2.1 system, but you’d be forgiven for thinking it is at first listen. The 5.5 inch aluminium drivers create an absurd amount of bass, I had to turn it down when I played Bubblin’ by Anderson Paak. It really did have my windows shaking! These speakers certainly don’t need to move around much. So, make sure you place them right the first time. Edifier S2000Pro
