Bookshelf Speakers — Edifier MR4

The MR4 is a fully active bookshelf loudspeaker from Edifier, built with substantial internal amplification. The MR4 brings Edifier's considered engineering to a compact active loudspeaker format.

Key specs that matter

Rated response is 60Hz to 20,000Hz within plus-or-minus 3dB. Internal amplification delivers 2 x 21W. Weight is 4.5kg, maintaining a manageable footprint suited to a variety of desktop or secondary system placements.

Sound and use context

Expect an accessible presentation reflecting the solid 21W-per-channel amplification, consistent with Edifier's broader value-focused engineering philosophy applied to a compact active format.

Pairing

As a fully active design, the MR4 requires no external power amplifier, connecting directly to a source component or preamplifier with line-level or wireless streaming input.

Alternatives

Edifier's own QR65 and R1700BTs offer alternatives with somewhat different amplification configurations within the same broader accessible active catalogue.
