WHAT OUR TEAM THOUGHT | |
They bring some of Edifiers top tech down to a level everyone can enjoy and they also boast the mod conveniences of wireless as well. For those who want better quality, choose a bookshelf speaker under $500. |
We have looked at louder bass options, but given the glaringly obvious fact that a pair of bookshelf speakers should really be handling the mids and highs with a dedicated separate woofer or subwoofer on a different channel, we feel these should not be overlooked. |
