## Questions & Answers

**Q: what is a good budget subwoofer to pair with the 1280dbs? advice please.**
A: I bought the Dayton SUB-800 for a hundred bucks, placed it under my computer desk. Pretty solid results. The sub was a bit underwhelming at first but it's performing better and better with break-in time. I built stands for the Edifiers to get the tweeters at ear height on either side of a 27" curved monitor, toed the speakers inwards for best sound. With the Dayton sub it's a very, very satisfactory near-field sound system for about $240.

**Q: qué subwoofer es compatible?**
A: De la misma marca edifier preferiblemente

**Q: Does this have a power cord attachment too?**
A: Yes the power cord is built into the right speaker.  It comes with all the cables you’d need to connect it

**Q: Does this come with a power cord too?**
A: The power cord is built into one of the speakers

Pura calidad Ideal para tu sonido Hi Res. Pueden parecer pequeñas, pero son demasiado potentes. Adicional, yo las uso como teatro en casa. Puede ser que al ver películas y series, percibas que el sonidose dispara en escenas con música, pero en mi caso es un detalle que puedo pasar por alto. Fácilmente mis pequeñas mandan a silenciar a las bocinas de los vecinos
