Edifier wants a spot on your shelf—and not just for the sound. With its new ES series of Bluetooth/Wireless speakers, it’s coming for the design-conscious crowd, the vibe curators, and anyone who thinks their speaker should look as good as it sounds. The lineup includes three models: the ES300 tabletop speaker, the ES60 portable speaker, and the tiniest of the bunch, the ES20. All three come dressed like Marshall amps but with Edifier’s slick attitude. If you’ve been eyeing Marshall’s retro-cool aesthetic but want something a little different, these might just hit the right note.
Now, before you scream, “Not another speaker range,” let me stop you right there. Because these aren’t just speakers. These are fashion statements that yell, “I’ve got taste and tunes.” The ES300 looks like something your vinyl collection would flirt with. Wrapped in a faux-leather body and topped with a sleek metallic control panel, it’s basically a gentleman in speaker form. Inside, it’s rocking a 4” mid-bass driver, two silk dome tweeters, and tech terms that sound like they belong in a spaceship—MazeTube Bass Reflex and TurbMuff Noise Suppression. Don’t ask, just nod.
Meanwhile, the ES60 is your cool road trip buddy. With an IP66 rating, it can handle a sandstorm and your accidental splash of margarita. It throws sound in 360°, pairs with a twin for stereo action, and even lets you take calls—because of course you’re the type who takes Zoom meetings mid-hike.
And then there’s the baby of the family, the ES20. Tiny, yes. But this adorable button packs a punch with punchy bass, IP67 protection (aka beach-proof and beer-proof), and 15 hours of non-stop playtime. It even lets you pair with a second ES20. I don’t know why two tiny speakers jamming together feels emotionally satisfying, but it does.
All three models come with ambient lighting because apparently, everything has to vibe now—even your music. Oh, and they support multipoint Bluetooth connectivity. So you can hop between your phone and laptop like a true commitment-phobe.
So how much do these dapper decibel-makers cost? Well, about that… I have to be honest. They do not come cheap. Not even remotely. You are looking at US$399.99 for the elegant ES300, while the adventure-ready ES60 comes in at US$199.99, and the tiny-but-mighty ES20 can be yours for US$89.99.
