5.0 out of 5 stars I like these speakers, July 12, 2006

I was going to buy the EC35...but decided I wanted a slightly smaller speaker cabinet as I wanted the flexibility to be able to place the EC25 into my entertainment center cabinet behind speaker grills. This turns out to be able to with a width of slightly less than 18". This compared to the EC35 which is almost 22"...which wouldn't work.

The sound from the EC25 is good. Dialog is good and directed. Voices are not shrill. Any heavy audio requirment easily handled by my JBL main speakers...so the center channel ec25 is matched/mated well with the other JBL speakers.

So it is not only a great speaker for the price, but it integrates well with my other components, and fits within my space requirments. I would buy this speaker again.

This review is from: JBL Northridge EC25 2-Way Dual 5-Inch Center Channel Speaker, Single (Black Ash) (Electronics)

I got this to replace my Center Onkyo which was really bad, could barley handle the load. So it was between the EC25 and the EC35. Well after much debate i went with EC25 because it was 75 shipped compared to 150 shipped. Well it didn't matter got it and it sounds GREAT with everything Music, Gaming and radio. I am really happy with this speakers it smokes my last Sony, and Onkyo. Mid and Highs are clear and crip no distortion even if i crank it up to max on reciver last Onkyo, or Sony couldn't do that. I highley suggest this speaker!

I bought this speaker thinking it would be a good buy because of the JBL name. I have it matched up with Klipsch front speakers and Wharfedale rear speakers. The Klipsch and Wharfedale speakers are outstanding. The JBL speaker doesn't seem much better than the television speakers (an old Sony Triniton). It gives a flat sound that has very little clarity or depth. You should go ahead and spend the extra money for a speaker that will deliver a sound that will enhance your system and satisfy your listening experience.
