There are a couple of things to look out for if you are shopping for a desk speaker. It needs to be compact so that it doesn\u2019t take up too much space on your desk. It also needs loads of connectivity so that you can hook it up to all your devices. And on paper, the Edifier M90<\/b> nails these two points.<\/p>\n According to the spec sheet, the M90\u00a0is just\u00a0133mm\u00a0wide, 212mm\u00a0tall, and 225mm\u00a0deep<\/b>.\u00a0To\u00a0give\u00a0these numbers\u00a0some context, it means the size of the M90 is somewhere\u00a0in\u00a0between that of the larger Audioengine A5+ and the compact A2+.<\/p>\n That\u2019s fairly compact, especially\u00a0when you consider\u00a0it\u00a0has\u00a0a 4-inch aluminium driver\u00a0and 1-inch silk dome tweeter. Despite its diminutive size, Edifier\u00a0says it has\u00a0a power output of 100W RMS.\u00a0<\/p>\n Connectivity galore<\/b><\/p>\n The M90 has loads of digital inputs.<\/p>\n Photo: Edifier<\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n This is where the M90 shines. To start, it has a USB-C port<\/b> that you can connect to PCs and laptops. It also has an optical input <\/b>that can be used with gaming consoles, TVs, or other audio systems.\u00a0The M90 also\u00a0has\u00a0an HDMI eARC port<\/b>,\u00a0so\u00a0you\u00a0can\u00a0use it in the living room\u00a0too with\u00a0your TV\u00a0as the\u00a0main sound system.\u00a0Finally, a 3.5mm aux input lets you pair the M90 with analogue sources.\u00a0It\u2019s worth pointing out, however, that apart from the 3.5mm aux, the M90 does not have any other form of analogue input. It doesn\u2019t have any RCA input jacks.<\/p>\n And if that\u2019s not enough, the M90 also\u00a0has\u00a0a subwoofer\u00a0out,\u00a0so\u00a0you\u00a0can\u00a0pair it with a subwoofer for\u00a0more\u00a0bass response. As for wireless connectivity, it supports Bluetooth 6.0. Supported codecs include SBC and 990kbps LDAC<\/b>.\u00a0Inside, the M90 features a DAC capable of supporting high-resolution audio of up to 24-bit\/96kHz.\u00a0<\/p>\n Since it supports Bluetooth, you can also customise its sound using the Edifier Connex App. The app lets you switch sources, change sound effects, and customise the way the M90 sounds using a 9-band EQ.<\/p>\n Availability and pricing<\/b><\/p>\n The Edifier M90 is available in black and white and costs S$399<\/b>. You can find it on Lazada and Shopee.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\nTruly compact<\/h2>\n
