    JBL Speakers

    I purchased these JBL speakers originally to put behind the seat of a 85 Short wide pickup as their physical size would fit.. I tried them out on my garage stereo which puts out 100 wpc. I noticed that they require considerable more wpc. than my truck stereo puts out without an added amplifier. I am breaking them in on my garage stereo for the moment and then will try them in my truck. They definately need considerable power to get the volume up. They sound good for the price but the highs are muddy as well as the bass. I have a set of car pioneer coaxial speakers in wedge boxes (that won't fit behind my truck seat) and they put out brighter sound than the JBls at a lot less wattage. Of course if I turned the volume up too much I would burn the voice coils out of the pioneers at about the time the JBLs start putting out some volume. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. Good speakers for the price.

    These speakers are great. Huge sound in a small package.Wall mounted or just place it on the table they work excellent. The short depth makes them look nice. They also look awesome without the grill on.

    These speakers are a great addition to my surround sound system. Used for as satellite speakers they add rich sound and are slim enough to not draw much attention.

    I purchased four of the JBL Arena B15 speakers to use as the surround speakers in a 7.1 system. I have them mounted to the side and rear walls and appreciate that they do not stick out very far. From my research, only in-wall speakers would intrude less into the room. I also like that they have a channel for the speaker cable in the back so that I could run the cable on the wall (not in-wall) and still have the speaker flush against the wall. This made installation very easy and look nice when complete.

    Was looking for simple speakers for my garage- had old receiver that was collecting dust, so I stopped by BB to see about some cheaper models that wouldn't be ruined by the dust. I ran across this model on the discount table as they were demo model. Took them home and now my garage rocks! They will crank up well in my two car garage that has the wife complaining. Sound is excellent and way better than some entry level speakers. I am a Bose fan and these are fairly comparable.

    I bought these speakers to work as my satellite speakers for my surround sound system and I have to say that I am very impressed. Rich full sound and pack a punch for those really exciting scenes. Great buy for the price and I am not disappointed.

    The midrange is awesome, the tweeters are really sweet. I bought these speakers for my girlfriend and she loves them. I would recommend them especially if added to a powered subwoofer which is the next purchase.

    These speakers have a great sound stage, but lack dept in the low a mid-bass. For the price a great set of speakers and overall a good value.

    Just wanted some old fashioned, inexpensive hard wired speakers for our new tuner. JBL has always had a good reputation so we tried these and they were better than expected. Very happy with product.
