After careful consideration I have decided to transfer all hardware review activities to a new domain. I purchased Hardwareasylum.com in 2012 and have been working hard to build a new and improved Ninjalane on that domain. If you are reading this you have reached one of the archived articles, news, projects and/or reviews that were left behind during the site migration.

Introduction
When it comes to building a computer there are a few things that you just cannot live without. Monitor and keyboard are a given and while speakers are not required for any sort of computing you'd be hard pressed to find anyone without a set handy. In this review we'll be looking at a completely new set of speakers from Edifier called the Edifier e1100. These speakers come in a 2.1 sound configuration meaning that you have 2 satellite speakers and a single subwoofer.
Edifier has been building custom and high quality loudspeakers since 1996 and since then expanded to be one of the largest acoustical manufacturers in China with a total of 3 companies in China and North America.
