The PC speaker system landscape is mainly controlled by very large companies like Creative and Logitech but there are a few lesser-known companies out there that fabricate what amounts to amazing PC speaker systems that are hard to compete with for any new comer to the audio scene. Nonetheless, there are a few “rogue” companies out there that fabricate what amounts to amazing PC speaker systems that haven’t received much attention. These are the companies we try to focus on here at Hardware Canucks since thy are capable of producing some great products at attractive prices.
Edifier has now released a line of well-received entry level systems into our markets for their ever widening dedicated fanbase. Today we have their new E1100 2.1 speaker system which is aimed at the more cost conscious consumer. It retails for about $55, has a simple one-year’ warranty and promises to incorporate high quality sound into a stylish and compact design. The question on our minds for this review is will Edifiers commitment to quality audio and design excellence show through on their smaller, more modestly priced audio equipment?
