2 RCA inputs vs 2 RCA, Optical, Coax (digital) - all selectable via remote; plus Sub-out (sub-mini).
19mm "Eagle Eye" dome tweeter (said to be silk-dome) vs 13mm silk-dome
Unknown BT version vs "BT 5.0"
Processing: DSP and DRC (range control) vs Soundfield Spatializer (stereo separation by adding some opposing/common-mode cancellation).
The/My 1280's multiple inputs are handy for basic Dolby switching when selecting the many PC/Monitors/USB-box outputs. Use gold/contact-wipe sub-mini connector/cable to avoid intermittence scratch/pops for the sub-out.
The 1700 should be cleaner-sounding with bi-amplification and larger silk tweeter, but signal is messed with by the DSP/DRC - at best, response can be made flatter at the cost of some phase non-linearity, and some companding from DRC can avoid (bass) over-driven distortion while still hearing background voices.
Both have the mid driver made of paper dome, which is still around cuz it totally kills any resonant surface-wave distortion (even if other cone materials are stiffer).
Edit: R1700BT has BT 5.1 and Class-D amps (x4). per:

They sound really good.

I don't have a good setup for a subwoofer, so I didn't want one, and I'm happy enough with the bass these have, but if you want thump definitely look elsewhere.
