Edifier has launched a trio of Bluetooth wireless speakers for portable and tabletop use - the ES20, ES60, and ES300. The speakers are wrapped in faux-leather and showcase a contemporary front design to complement home décors. All can be controlled by smartphones running the Edifier apps.
The ES20 is the smallest speaker, measuring 3.6 x 3.7 x 2.0 in. (90.4 × 93.7 × 49.7 mm). It includes a 6-watt 43 mm (1.7 in.) speaker and a 55 mm (2.2 in.) passive radiator, with a 15-hour runtime. Coupled with the noise-cancelling MEMS microphone, the ES20 can be used for phone calls and music playback when connected over Bluetooth 5.4 to up to two audio sources at once. The audio can be tuned by selecting one of four sound presets. One of five ambient lighting effects can be activated to provide a warming glow behind the speaker. The ES20 is IP67-rated for dust and water resistance, and has a carry strap.
The ES60 is larger at 7.5 x 3.6 x 3.9 in. (190 × 92 × 98 mm). It includes dual 8-watt 22 mm (0.9 in.) tweeters, an 18-watt 2.1 x 3.7 in. (53 x 93 mm) driver, and a 1.9 x 4.3 in. (47 x 109 mm) passive radiator, with a 12-hour runtime. The speaker has four sound presets, and three ambient lighting effects with two selectable colors. The speaker also has a MEMS microphone for calls, but is merely dust and water resistant without an IP rating. The ES60 adds the ability to play music streamed over a USB-C connection in addition to multipoint Bluetooth connections.
The ES300 is the largest at 10.9 x 6.5 x 6.5 in. (277 × 165 × 165 mm). It uses dual 18-watt 1.3 in. (31.8 mm) tweeters and a 30-watt 4 in. (101.6 mm) driver, with a 12-hour runtime. Designed for tabletop use, the speaker does not have dust or water resistance, but does add AUX IN input and high-resolution LDAC and ALAC Bluetooth streaming codecs as well as High-Res Audio support to the ES60 specifications. The ES300 also supports Apple AirPlay over dual-band Wi-Fi connections.
The ES20 and ES60 recharge using a USB-C cable connected to a 5-volt, 2-amp power supply, while the ES300 uses a removable AC cable connected to a 100-240-volt, 50/60 Hz AC outlet.
The ES300 is priced at $399.99 (here on Amazon), the ES60 at $199.99 (here on Amazon), and the ES20 at $89.99 (here on Amazon).
