Whatever I say is little. From such small speakers, I never expected to hear such bass. Songs that I have listened to hundreds of times on these small speakers reveal details I have never heard before. Very balanced sound at low and high volumes. Tight bass and highs that don't screech.
I give them 5 stars for their price. They are definitely value for money. I have put them (a pair) in a 50 square meter store and they cover the space nicely with music at a volume that does not bother the visitor.
No, it is not for main speakers.
It is better to save some money and go for something better, like the active JBL 305.
However, we are talking about a very cheap speaker.
I use 4 of them for surround in a 7.1 setup, and with the help of audyssey, the result is much better than expected.
If you want a speaker to simply do the job, with very little money, it is ideal, for example, as a surround speaker.
Good evening everyone!!! After 5 years of living with them, I can state the following: The speaker is very cheap for the money it asks for. My involvement with sound (hi-fi) has been long-term since a young age. I have listened to speakers worth 500-800-1500-5000 euros and many other machines (amplifiers, CD players, etc.). I bought this one by chance. That day, I went to buy an amplifier (Nad, my favorite for those who know) to connect it to an Audio Spectrum that I have. The seller, during our conversation and by using the Nad to drive some speakers he had in his shop, quickly made me listen to the small JBL speakers. I said, "Hold on, play the small one again." I was impressed!!! To not bore you, let's get to the point. The speaker (which is very small and doesn't fill your eye with anything, next to the... much more expensive competition), if you give it some time to break in, a clean amplifier with strong power reserves and a good sound source, placing it on a 60-80cm stand will elevate you to beautiful moments of musical enjoyment. Very detailed midrange, airy highs that don't tire you after hours of listening, tight but at the same time full low frequencies. I don't know why it has been mentioned as non-existent in the bass. Those who mention it should know that with 87dB sensitivity and 4Ω impedance, it becomes difficult to drive with weak amplifiers. This helps a lot in the listening experience, as it doesn't become forward when you give it volume and maintains balance. It has performed excellently in various listening sessions for me. The speaker is sold individually for 68 euros, meaning 136 euros per pair. Attention: I am always talking about the control 1 Pro, not any other model in the series. Inside the package, you will find wall mounts, they have slots on their backs for the mount, as well as transparent rubber pads to place them without wobbling, make sure to use them. What else can I say about this little speaker that I have particularly loved? Recently, I connected it to a tube amplifier, and there the listening experience skyrocketed, but let's move on to other situations. In summary: The speaker, in my opinion, is worth every last euro in its category and even at a lower price. Of course, if you already have a Spendor S3/5 worth 1000 euros, then there is no reason to buy this one!!! For the rest of you, take your favorite pieces and go listen to them - compare them with more expensive ones. Thank you for reading. Good continuation to all of you
I have them as accessories in my home cinema, the sound is somewhat dry and without bass (the sab is necessary with them). However, they are magnetically shielded and at a good price, and they look "bulletproof".
