Great item for size and priceNovember 29, 2008 The speakers are a bit bass heavy for my taste, but still a great value for their size and cost. Bass heavy music tends to sound a bit muffled, but overall I still think this is a great option if someone is looking for laptop speakers that pack a bit of a punch. Very stylish design that compliments my macbook very well. Wow, I sound like an apple snob :)
A pleasant surpriseNovember 26, 2008 So there I was in Best Buy, agonizing over the choice between these speakers and the Bose Companion 2 speakers. The Bose ones had a great display and sounded great, too. The JBL ones were not even out on display. But I had read good reviews about these on this site, and given the $40 price difference between these and the Bose, I figured I'd give these a try.
I'm really enjoying them. The sound is warm and the mids are crisp. They have a surprisingly good lower end considering how small and light the speakers are - I was expecting them to be on the high-and-tinny side.
It's of course hard to compare them directly, as I didn't buy the Bose, but so far I'm very happy with these - and I'm pretty particular about sound quality. They're half the size and half the price, but they certainly don't sound like a compromise.
I give them 4-stars not because they have any obvious faults, but only because I think 5-stars should be reserved for the truly exceptional.
Nice & CuteNovember 23, 2008 These two speakers are really very nice and cute looking. Also, has the best performance for the price I paid. This pair of JBK speakers set is parfect for home use laptops and desktops. Easy to install...plug and play.
JBL Duel SpeakersNovember 23, 2008 After reading the reviews I expected better sound quality. Overall, OK for the money. If you are expecting rich, full sound reproduction, I suggest you look elsewhere.
JBL Duel SpeakersNovember 23, 2008 Package arrive faster than expected. Sound quality is excellent for the price. The only negative is that the control knob is somewhat hard to turn on and off. Excellent choice for the price.
