Klipsch The Fives vs Edifier S1000MKII || Sound & Frequency Response Comparison 

Instagram - instagram.com/digitalstereophony/ Facebook - facebook.com/DigitalStereophony/

Here in Malaysia where I live, The Five costs 4 times the price of Edifier s1000 mk11.....yes...we have the cheapest Edifier's price list in the world...No brainer there on what to choose .

At least someone on RU-vid guessed to turn on the sound, instead of talking about the sound ))))))

What a find your channel is!!! Absolute genius!!! Thank you so much! This made my monitor purchase so much easier.

They both sound good with me leaning towards the klipsch but the great thing is they are not even competing in the same price bracket so recommending one is as easy as asking what one's budget is.

Thank you for your excellent videos. They are very interesting and very useful to know which speakers to buy.

First of all, I like to thank you for demoing the K. Fives you do listen to your viewers. Some speakers reviewers on RU-vid just love to talk and talk seldom respond to viewers, respond only those who criticize the channel. I give the channels a few suggestions and never taken up. You are doing a good job listening to the viewers. BTW a lot of reviewers do not realise using WORDS to just describe sound reproduction has many short comings but they do not view it that way. Demos replace hundreds if not thousand of words. After hearing these 2 spkrs actually, I refer the Edifier it gives a better soundstage in terms of height, sound width is about the same. Also the K. Fives is much more expensive, new buyers may want to buy it for a future app which I was told may include Room Correction for the Fives in the user living room. I thought the Fives will give better Bass respond but the Freq. Resp curves from both spkrs indicate there in the same ball park. I was told that in low vol. the Fives automatically adjust to gives the listener better bass. So as per your demo, the Edifier has the edge. I thought the Fives using compression driver will give the spkrs 'more' dynamic sound, from your demo tracks I don't hear it that way. I could go on and on but I think that's enough for now.

With tears i can say this is my favourite channel. Tears coz you watch this channel buy the speakers wich appeal to you the most and thats it. A lot of work for Digital yet not rewarding enough. Hope you keep up for years to come.

They sound very very similar, at least according to this recording. If the Edifier is cheaper then it's a better buy. But it's hard to realize when the mic is so close to the speaker. For example it's impossible to hear the affect of the Klipsch's horn on the spatial sound in the room.

thank you, always great job sharing this results, could we know a little more about the room? like size and acoustization?

Wow what a difference. Listening on Beyer Dynamic DT1990 Pro headphones and you can really hear how much more open and detailed the mids and highs are on the Edifiers. The Klipsch sound good but you can hear they have a big smiley face EQ curve with a very smooth sounding roll off on the top end. That's an Edifier win for me.

Hi! Great videos. Listening to your comparisions, i became keen towards s1000mkii. However, initially i was planning for edifer r1855db. The s1000mkii costs almost double in my country. Is the double price worth the improvement over the r1855db? Also, i will use them with my laptop. What should be the ideal positioning on desk. TIA

Appreciate your videos very much. Thank you for your job. S1000MKII vs Airpulse A100 would be interesting to compare. They are in very different price categories, but S1000MKIII in my opinion (based on your videos) have the most linear response within S1000-S2000-S3000 series. I like the sound of A100 in your videos and lean towards buying them, but S1000MKII with BT5.0 aptX HD and much much lower price are very appealing.

Incredible!!! At less then half the price the Edifier sound more true to the sound track. My question however is "what is the real RMS power of both?". I mean, do the Klipsch deliver much more power?

The fives are just amazing, love em

You can hear the bass bleed over on the fives because of the eq settings they come with. Overall both speakers sounds really good. The fives seem a little more fun but the edifiers sound a lot more neutral. both depend heavily on how far away from the wall they are and size of room.

Haha. I'm watching this video on my desktop with sound coming out of my "Fives". Great video. I love my Fives, but definitely had to turn the bass all the way down so it wasn't overpowering. The bass coming out of the Fives is insane. Got them for $400 on sale so I went for them over the Edifiers.

I bought the Fives about a year ago and at first they were ok but after some investigation I did two things that made them so much better. First get their download and the phone app that allows you to tailor their eq and room placement changes and two I bought a Cambridge Audio DACMAGIC 100. I run these with an older Klipsch 10" sub now I'm a pretty happy camper on music as well as movies.

I really need a suggestion and you seem to really know your stuff. Between the m200 mkiii plus or the klipsh fives which would you reccomend if price isnt a factor? I like the look of the fives which will better match my turntable and the fact the have a phone preamp but sound is most important. Will be using with cds through digital optical, spotify through bluetooth and turntable analog. Your take would be highly appreciated and I would even contribute to your patreon or whatever platform for a detailed answer.

Edifier mais balanceado, apresenta mais médio, sem perder em grave e agudo, inclusive se aproxima mais da source track de cada gênero musical. Klipsch é mais limpo, mas tem menos médios, o que deixa as músicas mais frias. Para mim, Edifier S1000MKII levou a melhor no comparativo.

at times i can hear the Edifier getting confused between bass and mids, sounds muddy, then at times it has better soundstage than the Klipsch…as for the fives, true to form it is base heavy, but is sounds superb with the hip hop track and anything with distinct mids, good for vocals, and has better frequency seperation…you can’t get wrong with both speakers in the end

The fives sound better, like 3%! For me the winner is Edifier (again). Plus, they cost half the money than Ks'. Another great video comparison. Thanks

Plz suggest me between edifier S1000Mkii or polk magnifi mini for my leaving room.

Thank you for your excellent videos. Video next: The Fives vs Edifier, Audiengine, DALI v.v.v Thanks

The sound difference is marginally better with the Klips primarily through the better inspections of instruments but value for money and sheer versitality then the Edifiers win hands down.

Question. The fives paired with a klipsch sub, should be a no brainer, correct? I was told that klipsch is using the same ceramic tweeters that they are using for their reference series. Can someone please confirm this? And they are also using the same drivers from their reference series as well. If this is true, then technically speaking, if you paired the fives with a klipsch sub, wouldn't you have a speaker that would rival speakers costing thousands more?

The Fives or RP-600M with a Yamaha stereo receiver R-S202BL?

omg...thank you for this video...such a good review of what actually matters...the fives are getting owned by a speaker that's half the price

oh my, I wish I found this review earlier :( just ordered the Fives last week

I’m biased. I have the Edifier S1000MKII speakers. They’re brilliant! The Klipsch also sound brilliant but based on what I’m hearing here, I think I made the correct choice.

Klipsch are much cleaner and have better instruments separation, you can hear it especially on a Metal Head track. Definitely a winner for me. But they cost much more, so that's not a surprise.

I cannot speak to the comparison, but my Fives sound great with my Pro Ject TT. I know their versatility is a strong point, but the sound alone sells these speakers, IMO.

I like them both but prefer the edifiers by a little.

Edifier a bit more pleasant to my ears. And I`m enjoying my edifier r1700bt :) pretty good for size and price.

In my opinion Edifier sounds clearer - louder 1-2kHz range, but for my ears Klipsch sounds nicer and draws more into the music.

Klipsch The Fives (McLaren Edition) or Edifier S3000 Pro?

Very interesting, but something is missing. Maybe you should try recording it with binaural gear.

@Digital Stereography, could You Kindly do a comparison between the Klipsch fives and the Edifier S2000mkiii. Thanks

I have both the Fives at home and the Edifier in the office I compared them once at home and the Fives sound a little better but are more critical to position The Edifier is more easy in that area The Fives must be placed in the correct height to your listening position otherwise they sound worse than the Edifier 1000 mk2 The Fives are great and the sub out works fantastic But the price difference to the Edifier is much too big for the little improvement you get with the Fives Wouldn't buy them again for that reason only But they are really fun so I'm still happy

Fives sounded a lot more natural and detailed through my planar headphones. Less bass, but plenty of it, and a more linear presentation from top to bottom. Clear winner for my taste.

Fives vs s3000pro please

Honestly, having heard the The Fives in person, I feel this video really doesn't do them justice. Not that I don't like these videos, but there seemed to be so much more from The Fives that seems missing here, hard to describe. I wouldn't be surprised if the Edifiers beat them on bass, but the Klipsch have a great detail that still sounds warm.

Did something changed in the room or setup? There seems to be more low-end and a somewhat darker sound compared to earlier comparisons.

cómo se llaman las canciones que puso algún que me diga por favor

thanks for the comparison. don't know how to explain wat i hear: the sound from edifier is muddy, especially for metal track. both systems sound muffled, like they are enclosed in a barrel, or lowered into a well. like their apperture is very small in midrange, which is not evident from their spectrum. why is the spectrum so choppy? is it the room or the cabinet? they seem to coincide at lots of frequencies. just thinking outloud

nice video

the sound stage of the edifier clearly shows up in the mortals song

s1000 mkII великолепны за свою цену

Almost identical that cannot distinguish, except one cost less than half with another one :)

The fives vs s2000 mk3!!!! Thanks!!!!

Having an untrained ear XD the Edi is not bad at all. I hear more difference with the comparison of the Klipsch R-41PM and the KEF LSX than this two. The Klipsch does sound a bit more composed but again the Edi not bad at all.

What different between s1000mkii and s2000kii?..which one should i go for better music listening?

I want to see the Polk R 200s on the channel to go up against the Klipsch fives!! I own the Polks 😊

Edifier hans down.. Specifically if you consider the price gap between the two..

Bought the Edifier S1000 mk ll as my Yamaha PSR SX900 monitor speaker. Better soundstage present than my previous scoop sounding R2800 , boxy mid voice S350db and dry sounding + loud tweeter hiss JBL 305. Since I place the S1000 mk ll just 100cm infront me while playing the keyboard arranger, I prefer it slightly angle speaker design. Honestly, the S2000 mk lll are better choice if you guys prefer enjoy music listening from distance plus wider sound field and fuller low end compare to s1000 mk ll.

Edifier S1000MKII 👍

+ klipsh, but price s1000 amazing

I vote Edifier... Sure!!!

Hmm overall Edifier wins, by a small margin, sound alittle more detailed with less bass emphasis, also the Klipsch sound a little boxy some times.

Can anyone tell me the difference between s2000 mk3 vs s1000 mk2 (apart from price) ?

Quick question. Which sounds better the Edifier s1000db or the s1000mkii??

in thailand s1000mkii 8,000thb ,klipsch the fives 28,000thb and i choose s1000mkii : )

Klipsch :O wow amazing sound

both klipsches and edifiers are better then source track..

please the fives vs the sixes

Hi! just want to ask,, which one would you go SQ Wise?the S2000pro, S1000MKii or the Klipsch R-51PM?

the normal ported muddy bass. its amazing that ported is still selling.

Edifier es para escuchar musica, no hay mas 🙌

I'm 68 and have minor deafness but the edifier sound crisper.

Obviously the dearer wins.. but edifier holds its own in the price

Is the edifier mkII better than the s1000 db?

Very interested to see how The Fives compare to the A100's as everyone who has reviewed the former hasn't done the latter.

The Fives: good clarity on treble, thumpy bass, recessed mids. S1000MKII: clearer bass, fuller mids, less clarity on treble. I would very soon get bored of the thin vocal sound from The Fives.

S1000MKII are far superior. It isn't even close to be honest. The Five's sound muffled and stiffling whereas the S1000MKII are wider and have more high-end dynamics.

Since the sound profile is almost exactly the same , maybe the drivers manufacturer is the same company !🤔

Hi I am trying to decide between S1000mkii and klipsch r41pm for my living room. What do you think?

Edifier the clear winner, sounds nine tenths as good but at 40 percent of the price!

Edifier

The fives... absolutely!

Nah, its to hard to hear the difference this way. Anyway we should give respect to edifier. Being cheaper for more than a twice they sound pretty good in this comparation.

Bass has more detail and impact on the fives mids are a tad better on edifier the difference is too small to truly care about

More depth all around to the Edifiers on the first track “Deep”. Again, the same on the second track. Klipsch gets the nod on the third track. Edifier on the fourth track does it for me. The Klipsch bass sound there isn’t right. Fifth track, “Metal Head”, I can’t decide between the two. That’s a draw. Sixth track, “Bellissimo”, more bass on the Klipsch but it’s not necessary. I think I’ll mark that one a draw. The seventh track seems overall depressed on the Klipsch so again, Edifier wins. On the eighth track the Klipsch sound is positively tinny. Edifier wins here again. So, all in all that is Edifier - 5, Klipsch - 1, with two draws…. That’s the judgement on sound reproduction, through my Beats Flex buds with the same results through my Sony MDR-XB650BT. Price? Well that’s got to be Edifier all day long and thrice on Sundays…

Edifiers are like a dependable station wagon while the Klipsch are a custom muscle car.

Why should one get the S1000MKII while the S2000MKIII is about the same price? Last sale they went for €299,-........

Edifier!!!!

Klipsch is the winner overall here.

Klipsch's (horn) are better for classical music, Edifier's are better for everything else.

Edifier❤

Klipcsh are a fail for me. I live in the mids where vocals, instruments and guitars live. Mids and highs are set way back on Klipsch, yet bass is way to boomy and hot. No longer interested in this new speaker from K.

Klipsch The Fives - win. May be HEDD Type vs ... ?

микрофон на басах перегружается, особенно заметно на первом треке!

The Fives did better with the classical music, the instruments sounded more realistic. Other than that, I cant tell a real difference. The Fives cost twice as much though.

Edifier S1000MKII vs Edifier R1850DB

Klipsch play Midrange little better.🤘👌👌👌👌👌

Bass is my game so I’m siding with Klipsch

Yikes half the price and a very comparable sound. Hmmmm for $350 the Fives look way better and because I'm in my new studio I may splurge.

Edifier win🎉

2:55 track Mortals by Warriyo ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-zFXl1sjTdms.html

Come on guys the kilpsch wins hands down on looks alone ! Yes there's a bump in the bass but put that microphone back 10 feet and the spatial tweeter balances out ..clear winner

Jesus, they have 2 lines of the graph, only two god damn lines and they decided to chose shades of the same green colour... Sometimes I just can't comprehend, what is inside peoples' heads...
