when is actual black friday?
Fri, 29 Nov 2024 😝
man that's like a freaking month away!! and they are already have pre black friday deals.
Yeah, it keeps getting earlier. I just had a look and this is the 9th Black Friday deal for this year so far.
This time last year (25/10/23), we only had 3 Black Friday deals.
I have found the best deals in the first 2 weeks of November over the last 3 years for items I was watching… No point in waiting until actual Friday 29th
Christmas stuff is on sale too. Advent calendars, etc. everywhere at the moment
How are these for a TV? Or will a soundbar be better?
Could you provide more information? What soundbar are you comparing? Are you just going to be watching TV?
The Edifers will likely sound better in a nearfield environment, but a soundbar is likely better suited for use with a TV.
They will probably outperform most similarly priced soundbars for mids and highs. Personally I'd need to pair these with a subwoofer for home media usage, a sealed 4" woofer would not cut it for me
These are great, But i went with the next model up and got the Bluetooth function as it works better for me. Im very impressed with this brand so far though!
Which model did you go with mate? Id also prefer bluetooth

Theres a deal in itself they are actually cheap, Im am so impressed by the quality of these
Looks nice is 95$ atl for that speaker?
@ATTS: Id say so, I payed$149
@icecold27: I c thanks!
can confirm, decent pair for the price. I needed them for my mixing deck and would like a little more bass if I'm honest, but I don't know if that's a reasonable expectation for the price point.
I have a pair of these & think they perform fine… I'm no audiofile though… Just an old guy who needs sound
Was looking for a cheap soundbar for my TV, would these work well?
No
Technically they'd work if your TV has an analogue audio output. But they're not really intended for that use.
I'd rather have the convenience features of a soundbar (auto-off, HDMI ARC, and/or remote control), even if the audio quality isn't as good as these speakers. At the end of the day it'll still be an improvement over your TV's built-in speakers.
Fair point. I’ll keep an eye out for soundbar deals then
Or just decent home theatre speakers. Most soundbars are pretty lame as they are constrained by size
Edit: I have bookshelf speakers and a separate 12" subwoofer - it was trivial to plug into the headphone port of my TCL TV and sounds fantastic. Cost me about $150 on FB marketplace all up
You would prefer a $99 soundbar?

Got these yesterday for an electronic drum kit, they have pretty good base so would be better than monitors for a soundbar.
It won’t have the HDMI integrated remote functions though.
appears all the range is discounted too
Just keep in mind these are meant to be desktop studio monitors. They are designed to be used up close and to have a flat sound profile.
They aren't going to fill a room or sound big and boomy.
Would these work well as PC speakers with maybe a Fosi Audio K5 or something?
no need for dac, wouldn't hurt to have one though
I was umming a couple of months ago over these, but bought monitors 3x the price. No regrets, MR4's are what they are - for the money they're unreal.
Have the black ones on the Kanto SP9 stands - really love them.
This or Edifier R1280Ts? or R1280DB Studio 2.0?
great pair of speakers
