Is Edifier T5 worth it for R1280DBs / Any alternatives?

It is for a desktop PC setup in a small/medium sized room.

I heard that there are some problems with the T5. There have been reports of the auto standby mode kicking in too often, for example when listening to not so much bass heavy tracks. You then need to raise the volume to wake it up again…
Don’t know how exactly that makes it unusable, but would like to hear from someone who experienced it.
