Active bookshelf speakers with dual inputs

Edifier R1280Ts are powered bookshelf speakers delivering 42W continuous undistorted power. A 4-inch subwoofer unit and 13mm silk dome tweeter produce clear sound with strong bass. Dual RCA inputs let you connect two sources simultaneously without swapping cables. A wireless remote adjusts volume and mute from across the room.

Upgrade from single-input desktop speakers

These speakers replace basic PC or TV audio systems that offer only one analogue connection. The jump is worth it when you regularly switch between a computer and a phone or tablet and want both connected at once. The extra sub-out port also adds a path to deeper bass by attaching an active subwoofer later.

Limited to analogue RCA and 3.5 mm sources

The R1280Ts accept only wired analogue signals via RCA or 3.5 mm cables. No Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, optical or HDMI inputs are present, so digital sources require an external converter. The built-in crossover activates automatically when the sub-out port is used, but the speakers cannot process surround formats or high-resolution digital streams.

Questions about this item

What size subwoofer driver does the Edifier R1280Ts use?

The active speaker contains a 4-inch subwoofer unit paired with a 13mm silk dome tweeter for high frequencies.

How do I connect two sources to the speakers at once?

Plug each device into one of the two RCA input pairs on the rear panel; both stay connected so you can switch between them without swapping cables.

What does the sub-out port do when I add an external subwoofer?

Connecting an active subwoofer to the sub-out jack automatically engages the built-in crossover, sending low frequencies to the subwoofer and the rest to the bookshelf speakers.
