these are not for monitors July 6, 2008
1 out of 9 found this review helpful

These are advertised as being for monitors - but they aren't. They are regular, split wire connections for a stereo. I had to return them because of that. If you want these for your computer FORGET IT! They aren't compatible.

JBL Control 1X speakers June 9, 2008
In price vs. value, good purchase as speakers for kitchen stereo/tv. Vendor (Amazon/J&R) Excellent. Highly recommend J&R for electronics...check before you go to the Big Box or Discount stores

great little speakers for the money May 10, 2008
These went in to replace some older Bose 301 IVs. I think the Bose had more on the low end but I am now able to hear things in music with these JBLs that I never could before. They sound "smaller" than the Bose, but MUCH better sound in general, I think, much more lively, rather than just filling the room with that thick & creamy Bose-ness.

Pair these with a decent subwoofer and you have better than average sound for very little money.

Also, they're built like tanks, metal grills, thick, tough plastic.

You need some knowledge on audio system March 17, 2008

It's a good speaker!
but beware there's no internal-amplifier like Multimedia speakers.
Which means you need a receiver and an amplifier and connection cables to make your speakers work.

I'm not professional on audio system so it took me some time to configure them (and of course some money). But, after all things done, the sound quality is worth your work and your money.
