The Edifier e25 Luna Eclipse has been designed to serve the mainstream audience, so we will be adjusting our testing procedure to emulate situations which most users will face.

Firstly, we connected the Luna Eclipse up to a Dell Inspiron 15 laptop via Bluetooth. This was very simple and only took a few seconds to complete.

We commenced testing with Chopin’s Nocturne in Eb Major (Op.9 No. 2) which is a rather delicate piano piece. We were very impressed with performance in this test, with the speakers exhibiting a balanced sound and incredible clarity in the higher frequencies.

Moving on to more mainstream music from the likes of Adele, we were impressed with the warmth of the mid-tones and the generally well-balanced soundstage.

Unfortunately, the lack of a dedicated subwoofer lets the Luna Eclipse down in more bass-heavy genres. They aren’t particularly well suited to the likes of drum and bass and dubstep, so we would recommend looking at other models if you plan to use the speakers for this kind of music.

Moving on to our movie playback test, we played the opening sequence Dark Knight on Blu-Ray. The compact size of the Luna Eclipse and the lack of prominence in the lower registers meant that they struggled to create an immersive experience, even in our relatively small living room test environment. The sound-panning was good for a set of stereo speakers, but not particularly impressive on the whole.

We also conducted a gaming test with the speakers in Battlefield 4. While they rendered gunshots and explosions accurately, the sound balance isn’t particularly well-suited to this kind of use. They are perfectly satisfactory for some casual gaming, though.

We were quite impressed by the maximum volume level offered by the speakers, especially considering their size. We doubt that there will be many users out there who think that the Luna Eclipse needs to be any louder!
