Review: Fantastic value sub, goes great with R1700BTs speakers - Just wrote a review of the companion Edifier R1700BTs speakers, which are awesome. If you're looking for a budget system that produces every note from the lowest to highest, I highly recommend pairing this sub with those speakers (which have a subwoofer out and seem made to pair with the T5). Once the T5 is properly placed to integrate with the speakers, it's very impressive indeed. Not the absolute last word in speed, detail and bass depth, however what it does it does very well, especially for how compact it is, that it's only an 8" driver, and its relatively low cost. Along with the R1700BTs speakers, my system absolutely THUMPS! Not just that, but sounds pretty dang amazing in all respects, and this is coming from an audiophile. You can see my pic of how I have the speakers placed -- not super ideal -- but this little system is immensely satisfying. The T5 also seems well made, pretty easy to setup and dial in, and I'd rate it a very good value for the money. A total no brainer sub for a budget system. The only thing I wish is that it had a remote to control settings from my chair and adjust on the fly. That would be perfect.
Review: Excellent Subwoofer Backed by Good Customer Support - I purchased the Edifier T5 subwoofer in August to pair with my R1700BTs. Within about a week I noticed an odd issue where a high-pitched noise would occur at random intervals. It was not constant, but noticeable enough to be distracting. I reached out to Edifier customer support and they were genuinely helpful. They walked me through troubleshooting steps like swapping cables, checking connections, and ruling out interference. When we couldn’t isolate the issue, they offered a replacement at no cost and covered shipping. The replacement arrived quickly and has been flawless. The new T5 sounds excellent. I have it paired with the R1700BTs, replacing an older Logitech 3-piece system. This is my first step into a more “audiophile-leaning” setup, and once everything was dialed in, the difference was immediately noticeable. The bass is tight and controlled rather than boomy, and it blends well with the R1700BTs without overpowering them. I’m not an audiophile, but for someone upgrading from typical consumer speakers, this setup feels like a massive step up.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice Little Musical Sub / Great Value
*by H***S on October 29, 2024*

I needed a sub to fill in some bottom end for my treadmill room stereo system. I have a pair of Mordaunt Short Carnival 2 speakers hooked up to a Sonos Amp in that room and they sound great. Unfortunately, they have to compete with the sound of the treadmill when I'm going for a run. This little Edifier sub not only gave some grunt to my system but it is also a very musical sub. If you want a bunch of overwhelming distorted WHOMP this sub is not for you. But if you want a sub to add some musical low end to your system, this little mofo is perfect. I wouldn't recommend it for extremely large rooms or massive home theaters but it is absolutely perfect for a 2.1 system in a moderate to small room. It would also do well in a small home theater setup like in an average apartment size living room. A couple parting shots: 1. If you're new to subwoofer ownership...your first inclination will be to crank the LPF and VOLUME knobs on the back and leave them there for eternity. Don't do it. Start at zero and slowly work your way up incrementally...stopping to listen for each adjustment. (Some recommend that you start with the knobs cranked and decrease them incrementally until you can barely hear the sub...then dial the knob one click up from that point...then stop). Regardless of what method you choose, you most likely won't have the volume knob and the LPF knob at the same position once you've dialed in the perfect setting for your room and your taste. Sometimes it takes awhile to find the sweet spot...and it also takes awhile to find the sweet spot on your sub. (I crack myself up!) :0) 2. Placement of a sub and other factors can have a significant impact on its sound. You may want to check some YouTube videos on corner placement, frequency cutoffs, and not letting your small children put candy or small toys in the subwoofer port. I got this sub during the Prime Big Deal Days (it was discounted $50) so I am very happy with this little beast. I can't vouch for its reliability yet, (seeing how I've only had it for about 20 days) but since I hooked up this very musical sub, my treadmill runs have been accompanied by infinitely better sounding music!! Highly Recommended.
