Will I be getting night and day difference in terms of SQ if I compare the Edifier range (R1900T3, R2000T) against more expensive ones like M-Audio AV40 or even KRK Rokit 5?

Don't wanna spend double or even triple the amount maybe and ending up the Edifier could deliver comparable or almost equal results..

Is there anywhere I can demo the M-Audios or KRKs first before making a decision?

Thanks!

You can't simply put true studio monitor versus a multimedia speaker with studio monitor design. But Edifier could deliver its best at that price range, can't expect much more from it.

You can try look around those studio equipment shop for M-Audio and KRK speakers.

some edifier and sonic gear dissected if you're interested.

SG Evo 7 now comes with a real tweeter, but the RMAA graph dips right down in the high frequency range.

R501 got more bass hits but not as clean as C3

finally got the R1600T plus.
50-60Hz bass is thin to non existent.
a little bumb in my realtek equalizer fixes this and it copes well.
playing music, it's better than HCS2330 and every other sonic gear i tried.
i would not recommend this speaker unless you have software equalizer available though.

watching videos is a mixed bag kind of experience.
i really do miss the muddy bass of a subwoofer under my table.
mainly because you expect speech comes out of the person's mouth and without any center speakers to balance it out, it sounds weird.
it mixes out ok when you sit further back though.
the bass is not deep enough for explosion booms.
s330 or c3 would be a better all rounder.

using the triangle formation, where the speakers are pointing at me does produce a better sound, but it is too directional. if i move a bit it will be out of balance. so i went full casual and point it straight out from the wall.

the tweeter gave me headaches after long sessions. kinda like when i use head or earphones. it's just me, i can't handle all this sound details. i am now hearing sounds that was never produced on my sonic gear.

you need the speakers close to the wall for better bass reflection.

the amp is great. you can only hear it hums if you press your ear real hard to the wood cabinet of the active speaker.



for music listening it's the best thing you can get for RM270.
add a cheap 2.1 speaker and map it as center speaker and you get a great 3.1 system for movies. haha, i used my sonic gear for this.
