First, I don't have much knowledge about speakers. So if you say buy this, I will listen you for sure. I am interested in music producing but since I am not even an amateur, I don't really care about the speakers being flat, etc. I just want to buy something reliable overall.
I only have 3 different products to choose between ant nothing else. It is because some of other speakers are not in stock/available or overpriced in here.
I decided to get a Mackie CR3-X, then I saw some topics about some people whining over the physical quality. As what I understand, CR3-X has a plastic switch behind and it might break pretty easily, even if you don't use it. I also saw some writings about its power unit or something. Some people were losing their products to that failure.
Then I started researching Presonus Eris E3.5 and unlike Mackie CR3-X, I didn't see a community complaining over the exact problems. However I didn't like the bass quality of Eris E3.5 after watching some comparison videos. I came across Erin's videos and saw that I can make it sound a bit better by tweaking the knobs behind the speaker.
Then I saw Edifier MR4 2.0, it was in stock. I compared the sound of Presonus Eris E3.5 and this one and MR4 sounded way better in my opinion. I watched some reviews for this product and I ordered an MR4 2.0 (can cancel my order). I made sure to watch Erin's review and he was OK with this product when you compare it with Presonus Eris E3.5 and Mackie CR3-X.
I also heared that if you buy an Edifier MR4 2.0, you will also need to get a subwoofer. Is it still necessary? As what I heared from comparison videos, this speaker still has better bass than Eris E3.5 anyway. Is it really going to be worse than my Logitech Z313 2+1 in terms of bass?
Please keep in mind that those 3 are my only options and all of them has the same price in here. I will be using those daily for typical daily stuff like listening music, watching movies and maybe music producing just once a month. Since I am upgrading from Logitech Z313, it is going to make a big difference anyway. I just want something reliable because I don't like to upgrade my gear every year or so.
