First launched in July this year elsewhere, the Edifier MR5 has made its way to our sunny shores. These basic studio monitor speakers have levelled up in several ways, which we’ll touch on below.

Like its past versions, the Edifier MR5 is designed with accurate sound reproduction in mind and has a neutral (flat) frequency response for its tuning. This makes it very targeted at folks who need neutral sounds for music production, video editing, or just about anyone who prefers having a neutral soundstage. Per its spec sheet, the MR5 claims to have a range of 46Hz to 40,000Hz (40kHz).

However, this version is bigger than its predecessor, because it now comes with three drivers (one for trebles, mids, and bass), for better separation and clarity. The previous MR4 was a dual-driver speaker with one driver handling the mid and low frequencies.
