I reviewed earlier as well. These speakers have gotten better with time. For the idiots that try to run these speakers with a crap reciever, you are getting what you deserve.

After reading reviews on this set of speakers and lusting after them for a few years, I finally broke down and ordered them online. I replaced a pair of JBL ND310II's with the 412pII's and there is no comparison to these massive speakers. I have not...

Great overall speakers. Rich, incredible mids & good (not great) highs. These speakers do love to play loud, but definitely aren't lacking at lower volumes. I will have to say I was a little disappointed with the AMOUNT of bass (given there is 2 12"...

Mids!! Overall sound is arguably better than anything else in price range. Bass is respectably tight & sounds good. Highly recommended for rock & really any genre of music

Few considering the value/price

These speakers are straight out amazing. First, in response to the 1-star rating below, which says that the bass is "terrible"... that could not be farther from the truth. These speakers use a powered sub-woofer, and if it's not connected to a...

I'm glad I spent the money!

I debated for weeks over whether I really needed new speakers (I'm a practical person with a limited budget) but I decided to splurge and buy these. All I can say is...WOW! I'm really glad I spent the money. I have never heard music or movie...

A top speaker for a great price.

 

A top speaker for a great price.

I don't understand the 1 star reviews below. Perhaps their speakers were defective in some way.These speakers are seamless and revealing from top to botom with excellent definition and fine balance. The best from JBL so far.

Not Worth the Money at ALL!

I have owned these speakers for a couple months and they sound awful for their price. The Bass is so terrible. If you put a KLH speaker next to it i would pick the KLH. I do not reccomend these speakers at all. Take my word for it.

Product Specifications

If you're accustomed to conventional home speakers, you're going to be amazed by JBL's professional sound quality at home. From Santana to symphonies, Die Hard to documentaries, your favorites will suddenly come alive with power and detail you've never heard before. You'll instantly understand why only JBL has a fifty-year track record of building the world's finest live-concert, theater and recording-studio loudspeakers. And why so many audio professionals rely on JBL sound quality. Own Studio Series loudspeakers and you'll be in good company. This 4-way, floorstanding tower with 200-watt powered woofer section reproduces sound with incredible power, while preserving the clarity and detail of the original recording. The custom-designed MDFenclosure and Elliptical Oblate Spheroidal (EOS) waveguide provide unparalleled spaciousness and definition. The pure titanium tweeter and the midrange transducer are mounted on a Linear Field Proximity (LFP) bezel that insures a seamless transition between the middle and high frequencies. The PolyPlas (polymer-coated cellulose fiber) cone woofer features traditional JBL engineering, the same technologies used in JBL's Professional equipment that can be found in stadiums, music halls and move theaters around the world. Shielded components allow placement near video monitors. High-temperature oversized Kapton voice coil and HeatScape motor structure allow these speakers to effortlessly play all types of movies and music. The woofers are built on cast-aluminum frames, which reduce distortion and increase power handling capability. The onboard amplifier increases bass response, especially when used with dynamic sources such as movies, without demanding additional power from the receiver. A low diffraction IsoPower baffle directs the sound power into the room, reducing distortion caused by cabinet vibration. The lock-mitered computer-designed enclosure requires no bracing. The FreeFlow flared port increases bass response without adding unwanted port noise. JBL's custom-designed drivers allow the use of simple, Straight-line Signal Path (SSP) crossover networks with high-quality electrical components that minimize processing that could degrade the signal. All Studio Series loudspeakers are equipped with all-metal, 5-way, gold-plated binding post speaker terminals.
