      The Edifier R1700BT is one of the best sounding active Bluetooth speakers I have ever had the pleasure to review. Great functionality and sound are combined with a budget-friendly price stage well under $200Read more

      REVIEW - Speakers can vary wildly in terms of sound profiles and quality.  While I'm no audiophile (speaker snob), I do appreciate a nice set of monitors. Read more

                Edifier is quite a bit heavier and feels much denser in comparison. Set of Mackie CR4, at 5kg, weighs almost 2kg less than R1700BT. This difference in density translates to better build quality in Edifier. As one of my usual build quality tests, I did a knock test on enclosures and what I found out was very suspiring.Mar 24, 2016
