The R11 Meta is the floorstanding model of the R Series. For a listening experience, its combination of 12th generation Uni-Q driver array with MAT and four 6.5” hybrid aluminum bass drivers allow it to pick out the subtle details of a recording, while also delivering raw power and agility. Metamaterial absorbs 99% of unwanted sound for pure and natural sound.

Ci4100QL-THX is an in-wall speaker. A deep understanding of the film making process and surround sound is at the very heart of this speaker system. Together with the discreet bezel design, offering a slim visible rim around the speaker, this series gives you tremendous freedom to position the speakers where you please. The results? Action sequences are powerful, and dialog-driven moments are natural and engaging.

Designed and engineered in our world-famous Acoustic Engineering Center of Excellence in Northridge, California, Stage 280F is the flagship of the new JBL Stage Series. This floorstanding loudspeaker features a 2.5-way design with Next Generation patented High-Definition Imaging (HDI) waveguide geometry, 1-inch (25mm) Anodized Aluminum dome tweeter, and dual 8-inch (200mm) Polycellulose cone woofers that provide deep, signature JBL bass.

I’ve had B&W, Klipsch K-Horn, and other higher end speakers and i dont feel any of the others handled the bass response as well as the Reference 5. Sure theres a price to pay but, as with much in life if you want something better than whats readily available youre going to have to pay for it. These are worth every penny. From tonal separation to dynamic dispersion, the ability of these speakers have yet to be fully realized ss I’ve uet to break them in.
