Edifier is targeting desk-bound gamers with the Hecate G2000 Bar, a compact soundbar built to sit right below a monitor. The unit has appeared on China's JD.com platform, where pre-orders list an introductory price of 349 yuan ($52) ahead of its October 16 retail debut. Once the early promotion ends, the regular price climbs to 387 yuan ($58).
Putting open speakers on a desk usually turns multiplayer voice lobbies into an echoing mess. Edifier tries to tackle that headache with a detachable boom mic plugged directly into the bar. The mic works alongside AEC 2.0 acoustic echo cancellation, an independent DSP chip, and AI processing to suppress background noise while actively stripping driver playback out of voice channels. The pitch is simple: you can banter with teammates without clamping a headset over your ears.
Acoustics rely on a four-part driver array. Edifier packed two 56mm full-range units utilizing copper-clad aluminum wire voice coils, paired with two 60mm passive radiators meant to firm up the low end. Total continuous output sits at 6W (3W across each channel), stretching to a 12W peak. Frequency response spans 67Hz to 20kHz. To stop audio from bouncing flat off desk mats, the chassis incorporates a fixed five-degree upward slant pointed straight at the listener.
