 Great, affordable surround sound. March 28, 2008

I have listened and researched much audio equipment before I decided to buy these and I am impressed with these JBL's. They are only 2 way speakers but as rear surround speakers these will help develope the depth of surround sound that you are looking for. As front speakers, I would personally not use them. I am looking into JBL's 3 way - 6 inch drivers for the front speakers. All in All these are spectacular for the price, they look good, and are well built.
 Great choice February 28, 2008
This a great pair of bookshelf speakers! I am starting a home theater system, bought a nice receiver and these speakers. I was looking at the Sony equivalent which is cheaper, and the sound of that set in store was muddy. Got these instead at an incredible price on Amazon. Sound is clearer, they look nicer and are smaller, and have a nice bass response for the size (not rushing out to get the subwoofer quite yet - play the THX opener for movies... you can FEEL it). Movies sound awesome, music sounds awesome!

JBL Venue Series Monitor 5-Inch 2-Way Speakers (Pair)
I have owned many JBL speakers for over 30 years. This one fell well short of my expectations. The bass needs to be tightened, the highs sound too metallic.
Not suitable for music listening, maybe good for TV watching.

These speakers, by JBL, weigh around 8lbs. But don't be fooled, they sound like a speaker that would weigh 25lbs. They can produce a powerful yet very clear sound. Attach them to the rest of the Venue Series and it'll blow you away, or attach them to your computer setup and have premium audio fidelity. I am very impressed with these speakers and will continue to support JBL! audio equipment.

These JBL's pack a powerful punch, they're much stronger than you would think. Actually I've been very impressed with this line of JBL's products. If you need great bookshelfs at a great price you can't go wrong with these or the Arenas.
