JBL Balboa

 

This is a full 5.1-channel system, complete with active subwoofer, that sells for just $1499 for the lot. And in this case the subwoofer is crucial to the overall performance — it is, in a word, a cracker.

Good center

 

Speaker delivers crisp clear audio, but gets a little distorted at higher levels. all in all a great speaker for the price, but you get what you pay for.
