Edifier Luna 5 Encore

Edifier's Luna 5 Encore looks distinctive, but will its audio performance grab your attention?

Distinctive design, Tight, focused and natural sound, Low-ish price tag

FM Tuner is poor, Stereo separation isn’t great, Not all that loud

Edifier iF500 review

Edifier's latest dock can hold its own sonically, but in terms of value it's outclassed

Smart, solid build and design ; remote control ; plenty of bass depth.

Lacks clarity and crispness ; closed sound ; relatively expensive.

Looks good but sadly sounds rather average for the outlay demanded

Edifier Luna 5 review

If Dan Dare's arch-enemy The Mekon had a hi-fi system, this is what it'd look like. The Edifier Luna 5 iPod dock is definitely different, although the first question you have to ask yourself as you heave it from its box is whether ‘different' is...

Stuff magazine

Edifier's Luna 5 is a different and distinctive take on the iPod dock. Whether that's a good thing is another matter…

If you’re after a distinctive-looking dock at a reasonable price, the Edifier could be for you. But it's not quite the all-rounder we were hoping for

Edifier Luna 5 iPod dock

The Edifier Luna 5 is not an iPod dock for the discreet. It's rotund and black, and will sit glowering on your shelf. Design-wise, it echoes that classic, the B&W Zeppelin - the curvy wonder that John Lewis insisted was only for the coolest member of...

The design and the sound quality

The lack of a DAB radio

Edifier Luna 5 iPod speaker

The perfect all-in-one iPod speaker rig for those who cringe at the wallet-emptying cost of the Bowers & Wilkins Zeppelin.

When it comes to sound quality, the Luna5 is very close to the current big boy on the block, the B&W Zeppelin, but – to our eyes at least – it looks better and only costs half the price.

Edifier Luna 5 encore iF500 iPod dock

Luna 5 iPod dock houses a subwoofer, two tweeters and two mid-range speakers, delivering great audio.

Great audio quality no matter the genre of music, works with range of MP3 devices and CD players

Unusual design may not have wide appeal, remote control layout is not intuitive

Edifier Luna 5 iPod Dock

Several people I spoke to while auditioning the Luna 5 said something along these lines: “Oh, Edifier, they started out making really crappy computer speakers.” If that's the case, congratulations are in order for the Beijing-based...
