About this deal

Edifier R1280DB is a budget-friendly bookshelf speaker that offers you enjoyable listening experience. Even at this low price you get additional features like remote control, EQ controls and several connection ports. To ensure reliable, undamaged delivery of televisions - TVs will now be shipped on a pallet service with DX Freight, TNT, or Epic Logistics, rather than with our standard next working day courier. The new Atmos topper is an exciting addition. Surprisingly, it's the first speaker of its type that Monitor Audio has produced, and is designed to dimensionally match the 6in-driver speakers - so the Bronze 50 standmounter and Bronze 200 floorstander. It has its own, upward-firing 4.5in driver.

Please note that our couriers will try to deliver as arranged but we will not be held responsible for any costs incurred because of non-delivery or factors introduced by third-parties. This service is based upon best endeavour and is not guaranteed.

Bronze 50 Speaker

Despite the Wharefedale’s offer plenty of information and an excellent suite of detail, the Bronze 100 speakers created a larger soundstage to work from so there was more space for the instruments to work within which meant they felt a little less cramped. The 12.1 speakers didn’t feel cramped when you listened to them in isolation, I hasten to add but when compared to the Bronze 100s the 12.1s suddenly sounded a little constricted. The Bronze 100 speakers sounded bigger and bolder and tended to work with a bounce and a jump and their arms outstretched and full of the joys of Spring. Bronze 6G has a starker, cleaner look than its predecessors and, dare I say it, a marginally less luxurious finish, even though the choice now extends to a trendy Urban Grey alongside the more usual White and Walnut. But the notably solid build is much the same as before, the Bronze 500’s 21/15mm MDF enclosure employing strategic bracing reinforcement to limit vibration, additional rigidity coming from the company’s now familiar bolt-through construction where the main drivers are anchored by large bolts that connect to the rear baffle. This has the added benefit of decoupling them from the front baffle. As before, the enclosures use bass reflex loading with two rear-firing ports. It continues to amaze me just how good modern budget speakers are these days. The Bronze 100 speakers, which might be viewed as being a step above that level, continues that quality. They offer neutrality and balance with plenty of detail yet there’s plenty of power in reserve. Highly recommended. It’s an approach that has given Monitor Audio plenty of plaudits, awards and customers over the years. And, with it, the worry that accompanies each successive generational evolution. Lightning leakage. Welcome to Bronze 6G and the lineup’s floostanding flagship. Acoustically transparent hexagonal dispersion pattern grille also featured on our award-winning Silver and Gold Series, for the Monitor Audio family look

for at this price point. In fact, it is the one speaker that remains from our 2015 bookshelf speaker round-up article. may be the bookshelf speaker for you. It even comes in four finish options which will further help to blend into your room decor. NHT C-1 BookshelfThat’s what I’ll be doing here, looking at the Bronze 100 speakers and its lower cost sibling, the Bronze 50s but also other speakers, a pair of budget speakers from Wharefedale that has a different design aesthetic, a pair of Q Acoustic 3030i speakers that are sized and priced around the same sort of levels to the Bronze 100s and I’ll also be looking at the Martin Logan 5i speaker’s to see what speakers at twice the price give you and whether these speakers, smaller in stature as they are, give you that much more than the Bronze 100s.

We reserve the right to refuse installation should our engineers think that the existing electrical or plumbing points are unsafe and in need of maintenance or if they are unable to install to existing furniture. This is why I have decided to test the Bronze 50s against a trio of Q Acoustic designs. If the Bronze 50 can, not even win out, but at least do well against this batch of designs, then it will be heartily recommended indeed. SOUND QUALITY And here, when you bring in a pair of Bronze 50 speakers, the next models down in terms of price and also in terms of size, you hear that reduction in mass and bulk. The music almost shrinks before your eyes and ears. The emotion was still there but its impact was less significant now because the speakers drew on a smaller well of information. It’s a bit like talking to something and gaining clues from their body language as to how they’re really feeling. The Bronze 50s provided fewer clues in emotional terms.The speaker has very easy setup that will take few minutes to complete. doesn’t come with any mobile app or remote control. The control options like volume button is located on the rear side so it might be a bit difficult to reach it. It also doesn’t have any option to switch between inputs. When connected to PC, it will easily work with any need of additional software or app. Hifi News had very different tone for Bronze 100 including measurements which shows fairly flat response nearfield. From that point on I heard the Bronze 100 speaker’s over arching personality. Which was this: tonal balance. Unlike some speaker designs I’ve heard in the past, the Bronze 100s took advantage of its relatively large – for its class – size. That is, it utilised bass to the full but never pushed it too far. And that was a critical aspect of the speaker’s performance which I’ll return to in a moment.
