Edifier R1380DB Active Bluetooth Bookshelf Speakers – 42W RMS, Optical/Coaxial, Black

Overview

The Edifier R1380DB brings a compact, elegant listening solution to desks, shelves, and media setups. Built around a sturdy wooden cabinet and powered by a capable Class-D amplifier, these 2.0 speakers deliver a balanced, engaging playback that fits in smaller to medium rooms without overwhelming the space.

Premium construction and precise processing

Designed to minimize unwanted resonance, the wooden enclosure provides a warm, natural character to the sound. Inside, a TI PCM9211 digital decoding chip handles digital processing with careful precision, helping to preserve detail across your music and movie playlists.

Sound you can depend on

The system pairs a 1-inch tweeter with a 4-inch woofer to produce clear highs, present midrange, and solid bass when paired with the built-in Class-D amplifier. With 42W RMS total power, you get confident playback that remains controlled at higher levels, without harshness.

Versatile connectivity for modern setups

• Bluetooth 5.1 with aptX technology for wireless listening with reduced latency and preserved detail
• Optical input for high-fidelity digital sources like TVs and media players
• Coaxial input for a reliable digital connection
• Line In for PCs, turntables with a phono preamp, or other analog devices

The R1380DB also includes practical control options: a remote control for convenient adjustment from a distance and a side-panel control on one speaker for quick setup and tweaks on the go.

Real-world use cases

Use these speakers to upgrade your TV’s audio for clearer dialogue and immersive ambience, or pair them with a computer or game console for a richer daily listening experience. Their compact footprint makes them easy to fit on a desk, bookshelf, or media console while still delivering room-filling sound.

What to expect and practical tips

• Well-defined highs and balanced mids support a wide range of music genres
• Solid, approachable bass that remains controlled in typical living spaces
• Flexible inputs allow you to connect multiple devices without unplugging

Note: While performance will depend on room acoustics and source quality, the R1380DB is designed to offer a versatile, plug-and-play upgrade to everyday listening.
