Hi Edifier,

Have you ever experience (from your customer) a kind of defect or malfunctioning on an Edifier speaker system that has No Bass?
I ask this because I've had a bad experience with my previous purchase of an Edifier 5.1 system that equipped with a 12" sub-woofer.
Can't remember the model number but it pack in 2 separate boxes, black in colour, with a desktop volume control stand.
The problem is, I could barely feel the bass from it. hmm.gif
In the end, it took me several months to sell the system (at a friend's shop).
Sold for RM500 after 1 week of usage! cry.gif
Many potential buyers who went to listen to the set also complained about the lack of bass.
It is like the built-in amplifier have no enough power to drive the speaker, something like this.
But I bought this model under the influence of online reviews, all of which said it produced good and powerful bass!!! hmm.gif
Until recently, I suddenly thought if I got the defective unit at that time?

Now I am again, thinking of getting the S360DB after reading a lot of good reviews and buyers' comments online.
I am still considering it because I am afraid of making the same mistake again.
By the way, I saw two comments on Amazon that also complained about the lack of bass on the S360DB. hmm.gif

Am currently using the second unit of the Logitech Z906 that I bought in 2018.
Before that, my first Z906 died after 4-5 years of usage.
Recently, the second unit starts to acting up weirdly again (also 4-5 years of usage).
This speaker is so unreliable compared to my 10-year-old and 20-year-old Altec Lansing that still rocking today!
I gave up with Logitech, I don't want to buy the third unit of Z906 anymore.

I am hunting for a new speaker system in advance, to replace my soon-to-be-kaput Z906.
I don't mind going from 5.1 to 2.1 nowadays.
The S360DB seems to suit my needs as I prefer a system with a sub-woofer.
But my past experience with Edifier really makes me hesitate. sad.gif

Any S360DB owner can comment on this or maybe try to convince me? tongue.gif



EDIT:

Please don't get me wrong, I had listen to other Edifier speaker that produce very good sound at boutique/convenience shops etc.

I do believe you have a defective unit or maybe the setting is incorrect. Based on your description, the model that you have is either S550 or S760D. These models have very good bass that can shake the ceiling 😁. Really sorry for the bad experience that you had to face previously.

Edifier S360DB is currently our most powerful 2.1 speaker. The bass is solid and is more than enough for most people. Sound is actually quite subjective so it might not suit everybody. But overall reviews are good. Or maybe you can built up your own 2.1 system by combining either R1280DBs/R1700BTs with Edifier T5 subwoofer.

If you are staying in Klang Valley, you may drop by our showroom to test out the speakers before making up your mind.

Hi, many thanks for your reply. thumbsup.gif

Yes, I also feels that S360DB suit my needs, sub-wooder dimensions also close to my Logitech's, so space also not a problem.
I am in Penang, usually I would have to order it online.
S360DB already in my shopping cart. tongue.gif
If I want to listen to how it sound, I think the only option would be Harvey Norman right?

Oh I see...
Doesn't matter, there are so many positive reviews out there that I think that should be ok. rclxms.gif
