Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

It was "Star Wars" that first brought the need for more realistic motion picture sound into the spotlight. And JBL, having pioneered cinema sound in 1928, led the way. Today, with more than 70% of all new movie theater installations, JBL is by far the world's leading supplier of professional sound systems. But our expertise isn't limited to theater. JBL's home-cinema systems are widely acknowledged as the ultimate in home-cinema equipment.

4.0 out of 5 stars All in all, two thumbs up., December 5, 1999
By 
This review is from: JBL SCS125 6-Piece Complete Home Theater Speaker System (Electronics)
Pros: TINY SATELLITES- satellite speakers the smallest I've seen, comparable to Bose, without the Bose price. GOOD PRICE- You have to look very hard to find a system like this with a powered sub for the same money. EXCELLENT DEEP BASS- powered subwoofer cranks. Hope you don't have any downstairs neighbors! COMES WITH SPEAKER WALL BRACKETS- don't discount this! Many home theater systems don't come with these and you can pay 50$ a pair for wall mounts, if you can find some that fit your speakers.

Cons: DOESN'T COME IN WHITE- Why are white speaker systems so hard to find? OK, this is a minor point, but if JBL is going to make the spkrs so tiny, and you're going to the trouble of installing this system, why not go all the way? LACKS MIDRANGE- with the tiny satellite size comes a compromise in midrange sound reproduction. SATELLITES HAVE SPECIAL SPEAKER WIRE PLUGS- so if you are not going to use the speaker wires that come with the system (and they are kind of small gauge) you will have to do some splicing. SUBWOOFER DOES NOT HAVE AUTO ON/OFF- OK, I'm nit-picking.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very fine surround sound system for a good price, August 5, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: JBL SCS125 6-Piece Complete Home Theater Speaker System (Electronics)
In a review of speakers, its obvious that what matters is sound quality. I listened to quite a few similar multi-speaker combo systems before purchasing the JBL. It is way better than either Boston Acoustics or Cambridge Soundworks systems that are priced higher. Its true that there are better systems out there, but for a reasonable price, you can get yourself a good sounding system. If you like classical or jazz the treble is crisp, and if you like rock or rap, trust me, the bass is more than sufficient to shake your house. In addition, the subwoofer is a tasteful deep black, and the satellite speakers are quite inconspicuous. The JBL SCS125 can be integrated into your sound space nicely and easily fills the space with deep, rich sound. You be the judge and go listen yourself, then get this system and have enough cash left over to get a new component!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Price, April 16, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: JBL SCS125 6-Piece Complete Home Theater Speaker System (Electronics)
This is a nice above-average home theatre speaker system. Thesatellites are fairly powerful and easy to hide if necessary. I agreethat they do lack the midrange of the more expensive systems. I replaced the center channel satellite with an Infinity center channel speaker (this is by no means a must). The small subwoofer offers plenty of punch. The only really bad thing I can say is that I have had trouble with the speaker wires. Three of the connectors have gone bad. It's not easy to replace them since they are JBL-type connections. If you can't spend $1000 then I would recommend this system to anyone. END
