I am a big fan of modern tech in retro clothing: give me a hi-res audio player that looks like an old AM radio and you can take my money. And I am also a fan of business sponsors. So the launch of the new Edifier Es series of speakers and headphones has put me in my lucky place.
Corporate PR zonzin First: the letters wear “layered meaning”, because the E “Elegant” means the S stands for “Fantastic (or Luxury)”, and if you put together those two letters, they stand for “Edifier Sound”.
Apart from nonsense, I love the appearance of the speakers: there are three models of increasing extension, starting with the super link four of the ES20, which extend to the rectangular ES60 and then the larger box of the ES300. And the specifications are impressive for all three.

The flagship here is the ES300, a 60W, handmade wooden speaker with leather-look accents, a braided grid and a metal control panel. Behind the grid there is a 4-inch long-term mid/bass driver and double 1.25-inch silk dome tweeters.
