Полочная акустика — Edifier M60

The M60 is a compact active desktop speaker pair from Edifier, announced on 15 November 2024 at USD 199.99. It is designed for use beside a computer or in a small room, and it combines a two-way driver layout, Class D amplification with separate channels for each driver, LDAC Bluetooth and a USB-C input in wooden cabinets on angled aluminium stands. Finishes are Black, White and Classic Oak.

Key specs that matter

A 3-inch long-throw mid and bass unit with an aluminium cone works with a 1-inch silk dome tweeter in each cabinet. The Texas Instruments closed-loop Class D amplifiers provide 15 W for each tweeter and 18 W for each mid and bass driver, 66 W RMS in total. The pair covers 58 Hz to 40 kHz, and noise sits 85 dB or more below the signal, A-weighted. Bluetooth 5.3 supports SBC and LDAC at up to 990 kbps and 24 bit and 96 kHz. Wired inputs are USB-C and a 3.5 mm AUX socket. Each speaker measures 100 x 168 x 147 mm, and 3.07 kg is the weight of the pair.

Engineering and use context

A closed-loop Class D amplifier compares its output with the input signal and corrects errors through feedback, which lowers distortion compared with an open-loop design. With a separate amplifier channel for every driver, the crossover works before amplification, and no passive crossover parts sit between amplifier and driver. The long-throw design allows the 3-inch cone more excursion for bass from a small cabinet. The capacitive touch panel on the speaker lights up automatically, and the EDIFIER ConneX app provides control and settings. The aluminium stands tilt the speakers by 15 degrees, which aims the drivers upward toward a seated listener at a desk. The M60 carries Hi-Res Audio certification. USB-C connects a computer as a digital audio source, bypassing the sound card of the computer.

Pairing

Computers plug into the USB-C port, phones and tablets pair over Bluetooth with LDAC on supported Android devices, and a TV or other analogue source through the analogue input. The bass extension suits desktop listening at close range, and the small cabinets fit on either side of a monitor. No separate amplifier is needed, since all amplification is built in.

Alternatives

The Edifier M90 is a larger active desktop pair with a 4-inch aluminium mid and bass driver, 100 W RMS, HDMI eARC and Bluetooth 6.0 with LDAC.
