Score: 84/100
Edifier D12
Score: 81/100Rankings
The Logitech Z407 is a compact 2.1 Bluetooth speaker system featuring a down-firing subwoofer, dual satellites and a wireless control dial, delivering 80 W peak power with balanced sound. Its subwoofer size and occasional Bluetooth pairing issues can be drawbacks for tight desk setups. Ideal for PC gamers and media enthusiasts who want strong bass, Bluetooth connectivity and remote control without a bulky traditional system.
The Edifier D12 is a compact desktop speaker delivering 70 W RMS with clear mids and rich bass from a wooden enclosure. Its main trade-off is the lack of battery operation and limited deep-bass extension without a separate subwoofer. Ideal for home offices or small rooms where wired power is acceptable.
