so today I'm doing a bit of a Christmas unboxing and uh the reason that I have
to do this while we're still in front of the tree is the thing that I'm unboxing
is actually the Christmas present that I gave to Esther and if she's on the ball
she'll be putting in an annotation so you can check out her Facebook page she
also works at NC and if she could hurry up and get her butt into the frame then
we'd actually be able to have a look at the Christmas present that I got for her
thank you Esther so uh let's get a quick photo of the gift giving presentation
and our camera person jump the gun a little bit go for
it there we go awesome okay so Esther
kindly is allowing me to do an unboxing camera person come on in and let's have
a look at the edifier e3300 multimedia
speakers so these are a lifestyle model
of speakers so what that means is that sound is a concern as it always is with
edifier they are a speaker company they are a sound company come in closer
and the difference is that with their lifestyle models you will need to be
able to appreciate style a little bit more than you would have to if you were
just going purely for sound so let's start with what we got here to start
with let's start with what we have to start with you can tell I'm tired it's
been a very long very long Christmas so
here we go we have the multimedia speaker system users manual so that is
going to show you what is inside the box it's going to show you how to set it up
not all speakers oh it gives you some troubleshooting tips awesome thanks
edifier okay the next thing we're going to find is a oh this is a 3 and 1/2 in
to 3 and 1 12 inch Jack audio cable so
just your standard 35 m whatever your
standard like headphone jack audio cable computer cable okay then you've got a
power brick all right that's fairly beefy looking so I'm guessing that's how
our speakers are powered then next we find a control puck and this is very
stylish I mean that's what their lifestyle series is all about is
maintaining that premium sound quality
while having like a stylish exterior and stylish functionality so here is your
volume control knob and you can see actually this is functionality that I
love I love having a headphone Port right on the front because it's a quick
easy way to switch between headphones and the actual speakers and that is a
nice solid knob it's made out of some
kind of solid material feels good when you turn it like it feels like an old
receiver rather than feeling like a piece of plastic that's just kind of stuck onto something so this plugs in by
cereal okay probably to the back of the sub but we'll find out more about that
later okay here we will find the speakers themselves okay so these are
the two speakers something that you'll notice about edifier speakers is that
they always feel way heavier than the competition in any given price range so
despite the fact that these are like a lifestyle speaker and I realize I'm
using that word a lot but it should be emphasized they are still quite solid feeling so
you can actually I believe you can take off the front here but I could be
mistaken so I better not try too hard oh yeah you can there we go so you can
actually take the front covers off these speakers
and yeah are you supposed to do that hard to say no I don't think you're
supposed to do that I better put that back on there we go okay so that snaps
right back into place Esther's looking looking on in shock and awe as I do that
okay so have a quick look at the speakers close up camera person are you
can you're close up really I find that very surprising okay so those plug in
Via a three 35 mm Jack okay so then we have
our power cable that plugs into our power brick and let's get further along
into the unboxing so all you're going to find at the bottom here is the subwoofer
okay the subwoofer is a very important part of any 2.1 system it is the 0.1 and
that is what is going to give you all of the kick that you get out of that
speaker system so let's just get this
out of the little baggies okay blow it
off okay so on the top you'll find a metal stylized power button okay so
that's like a brushed aluminum surrounded in a glossy black all right
then this is the front of the subwoofer so you can see what the whole setup is
meant to look like when it's all together so it's kind of two slim towers
and then like a triangular looking subwoofer okay in terms of con activity
actually why don't we start with a close look down this kind of this Gap right
here so you can see this is a down firing subwoofer so there are technical
reasons for that although I couldn't tell you exactly what they are but it is
supposed to produce a more desirable sound as far as bass is concerned and
even some speakers actually the makos which I unboxed recently use all
downward firing speakers on the back you have a base
control knob you also have the port that
gets the from the control knob and then
we also have a line in a speaker out and
a 1.8 volt in so that's your power input
thank you for checking out my unboxing of the edifier multimedia
e3300 lifestyle speakers
