Introduction


Now I’m not familiar with Edifier’s product when I first brought the S2000MKIII. It was my second product purchase from them. Edifier makes Chifi(Chinese Hi-Fi audio) products, they have a sub-brand named Airpulse which from based on speculations, made more high-end Powered Speakers, they’re pricey, going has high as $2000 USD. These speaker do look very nice. But at the cost of being an average sounding audio device.


Inputs

They do got a decent variety of inputs but sadly they don’t have the sub-out, which is sad. The sounds is pretty worth after some adjustments. The S2000MKIII Includes a Coaxial RCA, Toslink, and two RCA inputs. All are in the right powered speaker. In order to powered the left passive speaker,, it’s connected via a 5-pin XLR cable, the cable built quality is suburb


In short, these sounded amazing for the price of $400 dollar when I first brought it back in 2021, edifier has raised it to $500 which I’m kinda disappointed, these should be at least $350 dollars at least. The S2000MKIII has 4 EQ settings listed on the Remote. Personally dynamic mode sound the best with the bass being extended as well has the highs get crispier, monitor flatten the sound signature, that if you wanted a more laid-back sound. Don’t bother with Vocal and Classic, I’d notice little to no changes with both EQ settings.

On the Right speaker you have 3 nobs at the back that adjust the volume, treble, and bass. Sadly If you turned the bass all the way up, you’ll get distorted bass or even worse clipping if you crank up the volume, it’s unacceptable for edifier to make a speaker like this for 400 or insultingly, $500 dollars. But all changed when I plugged the RCA input from the Fiio K5 Pro via RCA input. In fact these makes the speakers sound WAY better overall with the bass being puncher while the treble sounding more crisp. I’d would raised the overall rating up to 7.5 with the K5 PRO DAC/AMP. I highly recommend getting an audio DAC to drastically improve the sound quality. They do fill in the room from small to medium sized rooms, but for big rooms I’d suggest get else were, maybe Edifier’s Airpulse lineup or get a floor standing speakers.

I normally don’t review remotes but boy the remote is terrible.


Lets start with the layout, it’s god-forbidden. There times were I accidentally press the wrong input or EQ button because all the buttons are so close together, there’s no gap feeling that you know which button to press without looking at it. The battery cover is a bitch to take off. You’ll need Krato’s from God of War type strength in order to remove it. And when you do, it’s pain-full with the vents design indicating were to remove the cover. I hope Edifier redesigned the remotes with their new models, because it’s embarrassingly terrible.


Closing


In conclusion, the S2000MKII has some potential being a $400( 500 now) dollar speakers that is great for home theater usage. But with the good DAC I’d say it’s worth for it but majority won’t know about it nor have the research for it. Only if It had a sub-out put, I’d it’ll be 8 out of 10 maybe 9 for the sound quality improvements.


I’d say wait for sale or get it with a dac when buying the unit.
