A great pair of Bookshelf Speaker R1855DB tested with and without a subwoofer. Remember that these bookshelves have a Sub out and it's a filtered output.

Did you experience any issues with low sound playing? I am asking you this due to the auto-standby feature in the T5 that power off the subwoofer automatically after 5 minutes. Someone reported that on the reviews in Amazon.They say that they have to increase the volume to turn the subwoofer back on. Thanks

@geronimo6377 Год назад

Thanks for the interesting video. On the German Amazon site I read a customer review that deals critically with the subwoofer connection and it was complained that the signal sent to the subwoofer was too weak and even if the volume on the subwoofer was 100% it was still too quiet . The customer used a Saxx DS 10 Evo as a subwoofer, which I don't know myself. In this video I found the sound with the subwoofer quite convincing. How was the volume set on the subwoofer, i.e. was there still room for improvement? Thank you.

@rtechreviews Год назад

Thank you for your thoughts. I don't know why some are facing issues.... I only used a basic subwoofer using an amplifier board that needed a sub in connection and it worked just fine... In fact with a better sub the effects would have been considerbly better.

@dsavoy66 2 года назад

I have an R1700BTs and I connected the Sub Out output to the auxiliary input of a Panasonic SC UA7 tower with a stereo cable. The basses in the Edifier are canceled with the cable connected which is normal, but they are heard at a very low volume in the tower even when the volume control is turned up to the maximum. That could be happening? That Sub Out output is only compatible with some types of subwoofer? Thanks!

Hi, It's been an year since this review, do you still think Edifier R1855DB with combo of a subwoofer - Yamaha NS SW - 100 or Yamaha Subwoofer NS-SW050 works fine or shall I look for something else? If Edifier R1855DB is till decent enough, shall I go with Yamaha NS SW - 100 or NS-SW050, the difference is or around INR 10K between these subs.

@rtechreviews 2 года назад

Dear Manmeet, Subwoofer is a one time buy especially if you go with that SW 100 it's definitely going to help if you like deeper bass at lower volumes. The 50 may be slightly smaller still not a bad buy. End of the day if your a bass lower go for that extra 10k 😊

@sashavlad84 2 года назад

Hey rTech, thanks a lot for this. I have the same speakers for over 6 months now and I am shopping for a sub. I have a few questions: Is the sub out a line out or a low-pass out and is it volume controlled from the remote or is it 100% all the time? These factors will decide which sub I buy.

Does these speakers improve the mid and high frequencies (by disconnecting the bass) while using the sub out port connected to the subwoofer?

@vincat84 2 года назад

By the way. I to plugged the R1855db to my old E3100 (2.1 set without its own speakers) edifier subwoofer to the common RCA left right ports. Of course the subwoofer performance was not the best but it worked. However, the speakers were still playing the low frequencies (bass sound) sounds . Could it be that in this case the low pass didn t work as I din't use the right subwoofer for this case? Thanks,
