And relatedly, the Edifier was not very good. The default sound was overly bassy -- but not good bass. Like when you get a rental car and the idiot before you turned the bass to 10. In addition, the electronics are subpar. You can hear a "buzz" from the internal amp if you leave the Edifier on and at any sound above 1/2 way. I use these for Chromecast audio streamins, so hearing a constant buzz sucked.
The electronics don't suck, they are premium components. There are several articles out there that go through a teardown of various edifier models. All of the components used are more than appropriate for a given product at a given price point.
This is a deals thread, not a place for you to threadcrap with your biased audiosnobbery.
I only wish the S2000pro had a sub out, but most folks wouldn't use a sub with these anyway, they hit the lows incredibly well.
The s2000pro is also bi-amped.
I did have what I thought was an issue with them when new as well, I kept hearing a chirp in the sound on some tracks, particularly when using the DSP. I contacted Edifier and they offered an exchange. I did some more testing and realized a compressor I was using was slightly clipping, and the DSP amplified this impulse. I dialed the compressor in a little more carefully and all is well.
The other thing I like about both sets is that even at max volume, there is no audible distortion, they play clean all the way to the top. This means they dialed in the amp gains and paired them with a well matched driver. You are also unlikely to damage the speakers from normal inputs.
any one have input on these guys? considering them vs. the S2000Pro

You seem to be an Edifier fanboy, and I guess that's cool. But the fact is these are low to mid level speakers with low to mid level components. They do in fact hiss and they do not sound good -- to me. If you love them, awesome. But your opinion is yours, just as mine is mine. The fact that we disagree does not alter the fact that both are opinions.
