Our take on the Edifier R980T 4" Active Bookshelf Speakers

The Edifier R980T is a powered bookshelf speaker pair with 24W RMS total output, a front-firing flared bass reflex port and wooden enclosures built to reduce resonance. It takes two sources at once through 3.5mm and dual RCA inputs, so a phone and a turntable preamp can stay connected together. It suits desk, shelf and small-room listening on a tight budget. Against pricier powered speakers it gives up Bluetooth, a remote and deeper bass, but owners rate it highly for its size and simple setup.

About the Edifier R980T 4" Active Bookshelf Speakers

The Edifier R980T is an active bookshelf speaker system with 4" drivers. It delivers 24 watts RMS total power output. A calibrated, flared bass reflex port on the front supports bass response.

The enclosures are 100% wood in a classic finish, which helps minimize acoustic resonance.

It has two AUX inputs, so you can connect two devices at the same time without plugging and switching. Each input works with a device that has a 3.5mm headphone output or a dual RCA output. RCA and 3.5mm cables and speaker wire are included, and the power supply is universal 110V-240V.

Questions and answers

Do these speakers have Bluetooth?

Do I need an amplifier?
No. The speakers are active, with the amplifier built into one cabinet, and the second speaker connects by the included wire.
What comes in the box?
The speaker pair, RCA and 3.5mm cables, speaker wire and a power supply that works from 110V to 240V.
Are they good for a turntable?
Only with a turntable that has a built-in phono preamp or a separate preamp, since the speakers have no phono input.
