I believe you are referring to my review when you said mids highs are not warm on S360DB

Good or bad depends on user. But if you are using it for pc near field use then you might experience the harshness I mentioned. Especially on higher volumes with low quality sounds it can get annoying.
I personally believe the S360DB performs best for long range like TV use or as speakers to fill a room with music while the S350DB works for all including near field

Depends on your usage you might find it a benefit or not.
If can demo it'll be better. I would recommend saving some money and get the smaller S350DB

good to hear the s360db serves you well

about the logitech, I did notice the z625 is muddier than the classic non-digital z623.
the z623 is more crisp and tight compared to the newer z625. Nevertheless these are always one step away from edifier S series

WTA:

Is there any recent reviews, or least year 2018 reviews for Edifier C3X ? Currently still deciding between this or R1700BT for desktop use (gaming, movies and music).

S350DB ordered! Will update the thread to tell you my first impressions and a little comparison with S530D as soon as it arrives

Great! My S350DB are delivering today, will update here as soon as I try them, it would be great to make a sort of "comparative" between S350DB and S360DB with the same soundcard, AE-5.

In the meanwhile, what do you think about the S360DB with the AE-5? How do they play?

Here I am! Not an audiophile here, but I can still distinguish between low quality and high quality audio in a way that most people seems not to do so. Anyway, I appreciate your thoughts about S360DB. Here in Italy they don't deliver it, it seems they don't deliver nor release them anywhere except from Malaysia. This said, I bought S350DB, and again with a SoundBlaster AE-5 soundcard and.. WOW! I come from a S530D, so a great 2.1 system. The most audible difference to me is bass: in the S530D I think it was a bit behind highs and mids, the S350DB in neutral sounds GREAT! Everything seems at the right place, even the subwoofer, which is never behind nor it covers highs and mids. It has the needed power which lacked a bit with the S530D. Also S530D with high basses (with SubWoofer at +10 and basses at +6 from the console) lacked some definition. I used to have subwoofer at +10 and basses at +2, plus a bit of EQ with the AE-5 soundblaster software. With the S350DB this doesn't happen. Even at neutral the sound is really great, the bass has a great definition and I only incremented a little bit since I'm a fan of it. Also, didn't really need any EQ with soundblaster software, but I noticed that the subwoofer responds better than the S530D one with some basses turned up (at 61Hz frequency) but anyway doesn't lose definition. Talking about mids and highs also, I don't need any EQ here, while using the S530D I remember I turned up a little bit them. I think this S350DB is way more balanced in sound compared to the S530D, and I would really recommend it. Really happy with the purchase 

Didn't try with movies for now, will try as soon as I can, for now thanks for the info

For the bass yes, try and let me know. It seems that increasing basses directly from the right speaker of S350DB will produce a warmer and smoother bass, while increasing it from the 61Hz band in the AE-5 EQ is producing a more defined and kicking bass. I founded a good mix with both of them, at about +2/3 dB in the AE-5 EQ and +2 in S350DB.

I noticed anyway that rising up the volume the bass becomes really strong and powerful, very kicking and punchy compared to the S530D, really impressive

Guys did someone notice a strange problem with the S350DB subwoofer? As soon as volume rises and basses become stronger, even with basses at 0 in the right speaker, and a +2db in my soundcard software, airflow coming from the hole in the subwoofer starts making an audible noise in strong basses songs like electronic music. It's like the subwoofer and the hole isn't capable of that power and the airflow is too much for the hole, and the result is something like a "fart", which is funny but at the same time quite well explaining of the problem. I don't know if it's a defective unit or it's a design defect. Can someone help me? Thanks!

Noticed that using some EQ with the 31Hz band, giving it a -4db moderately decreases this chuffing effect. The sound loses some deepness but not too much, it's just a good compromise to reduce chuffing while still having a good and deep sound. Yes I thought about the shorter and smaller sub box, and also thought about the physical compromise. Anyway thanks to everyone and let's enjoy the sound 

Sorry if this has been asked before.

I am connecting my Edifier s350db speakers to my PC motherboard which has realtek AC1220. I tested both optical connection and 3.5mm to RCA connection, I can't really tell the difference apart from the 3.5mm connection volume is louder. I think this is due to the DAC on the motherboard. I understand the speaker has a built in DAC which outputs digital signal.

So if for my PC connection, is optical really better? Digital to digital vs digital to analog to digital. I asked because the optical cable is a lot shorter in length vs 3.5mm. But 3.5mm will have hiss sound when idle?

Appreciate if any sound guru can help out whether I should do a optical or 3.5mm connection to this speaker using the free provided cables. Thanks.
