Edifier R1700BTs

Expert Opinion

Professional reviewers describe the R1700BTs as an "insane value" speaker that looks great and sounds great, emphasizing the effective Class‑D amp with DSP/DRC, the Spatializer for a wider soundstage, and the premium wood enclosure. While they acknowledge some limits in ultimate fidelity and the need for a subwoofer for deeper bass, they consider the overall package a strong contender in the sub‑$300 active bookshelf segment.

What Users Say

Everyday users consistently praise the solid construction, generous cable length, easy Bluetooth pairing, and the surprising power and clarity for a bookshelf speaker. The prevailing sentiment is that the speakers exceed expectations for their price, though a minority note that bass may feel thin without a subwoofer and occasional Bluetooth reconnections are needed.
