Quick Review: Edifier M3280BT is an affordable, versatile Bluetooth home audio 2.1 speaker system

It may not be one of the biggest names in audio equipment, but Edifier has a growing reputation for building great-looking speakers systems that don’t cost the earth. While the M3280BT hardly has the most catchy of names, it is a decent 2.1 audio system that’s at the very least, worth your consideration, if not your cash.

This 2.1 system is made up of two tall triangular speakers, and a mid-sized woofer unit. As with most Edifier products, it’s attractive. The silver circular base holding the speakers is simple, svelte and sturdy, matching the slim silver band which stretches across the belly of the subwoofer unit. If you happen to have a silver and black desktop PC or noteboook, these speakers will compliment it perfectly. And because the speakers are long and slim, they won’t take up much space beside your computer.

A huge plus for me is that the design isn’t ostentatious. You often find speaker systems designed to be striking, trying to make an impression. These subtly and inoffensively sit beside any computer, look good, but don’t distract.
