These sit in different size classes, so this is not a straight ranking comparison. The Edifier M60 ranks #9 of 48 powered bookshelf speakers by sound quality at $199.99; the Edifier D12 ranks #7 of 29 powered desktop speakers by sound quality at $179.99.
What the Edifier M60 does well: Small desktop speakers with even sound, USB, Bluetooth and included stands, easy to set up at a desk. Watch for: The on-axis response rises by about 0.57dB per octave, so the tonal balance becomes brighter toward the treble.
What the Edifier D12 does well: A stereo desktop speaker in one box with Bluetooth, aux and RCA inputs, and a lot of sound for the money. The tradeoff: Bass is limited by its 57Hz specification.
Buy the Edifier M60 at $199.99 if you want a powered bookshelf speaker. Buy the Edifier D12 at $179.99 if you want a powered desktop speaker instead.
