Edifier Compact MR4 2.0 (42W) Studio Monitor with Class D Amplifier and Two Sound Modes to Choose From White

The Edifier MR4 speakers offer a mixed experience for customers. On the positive side, the sound quality is praised, with many customers enjoying the performance for both music and gaming. The speakers have a flat frequency response in monitor mode, which makes listening to music, including genres like metal, more pleasant. The speakers also have a music mode, which provides a more V-shaped signature, enhancing vocals and guitars but potentially becoming tiring over time. The speakers are praised for their attractive design and build quality, especially in white. The inclusion of 3.5mm aux and headphone jacks is appreciated. Additionally, the ability to turn off the speakers by holding the volume button is seen as a convenient feature. However, there are several drawbacks to these speakers. The off-white housing and brilliant white front were a deal-breaker for one customer, suggesting a lack of attention to detail in design. The fixed power lead prevents potential routing through stands, limiting flexibility in setup. Some customers found the volume control to be imprecise, jumping in big increments rather than offering granular control. In summary, the Edifier MR4 speakers offer good sound quality and an attractive design, but there are some noticeable flaws such as the off-white color, fixed power lead, and imprecise volume control.
