Title: Not the best for the Money
Review: I'd like to set the record straight about these speakers because part of why I purchased them was because they had good reviews. I bought these for a stereo setup to listen to music 90% of the time and to watch movies the rest of the time. I'm something of an audiophile with a Pro-Ject turntable and a Harmon-Kardon receiver. I listen to a wide variety of music from jazz to hip hop to punk and heavy metal on vinyl, cds and mp4s. I will say these speakers do have a lot of bass with the dual 8inch woofers, but it sounds muddy and clumsy. The highs are distorted and the mids are weak. the overall sound of these lacks warmth. I ended up going with Polk Monitor 60s. For only a little more dough these are a world of difference.The JBL speakers look ridiculous too. They look kinda cool in the picture but once you see them in person they are huge (10 x 40 x 15"), the silver looks like imitation aluminum, and the silver grilles are really cheap.
Is the review positive or negative?
