Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Immerse yourself in sound and revel in the power of JBL's SCS200.7 surround cinema speaker system. The SCS200.7 is a complete, 7.1-channel home theater speaker package offering exceptional sound quality and installation flexibility. It's ideal for anyone seeking high-performance multichannel home theater sound from a system that fits easily and unobtrusively in any room.

The SCS200.7 produces rich, enveloping surround sound from the latest 5.1- and 6.1-channel listening formats, like DVD-Audio, SACD, Dolby Digital EX, and DTS-ES Discrete (compatible source components and processing/amplification required). A 7.1 audio/video receiver would be able to generate 7.1-channel listening from 5.1 and 6.1 programs, giving you even more spacious surround sound--and keeping you at the ready for the arrival of discrete, 7.1-channel formats.

The SCS200.7 comes with 6 timbre-matched satellite speakers, a matching center-channel speaker, and a dedicated 150-watt powered subwoofer, along with satellite wall-mount brackets and all necessary cables. The system features elegant, understated styling and a rich metallic-silver finish that complements any home entertainment system and living room.

Although smaller than many systems, the SCS200.7 is engineered to reproduce movies and music with clarity and sonic realism. Its satellites and center speaker feature titanium-laminate tweeters and advanced-technology 3-inch woofers (1 each in the satellites and 2 for the dialogue-critical center speaker). The powered subwoofer uses a large, 10-inch woofer and perfectly complements the other speakers with deep, articulate bass extending to 35 Hz (at 6 dB down).

You can place the speakers on shelves using the supplied table stands or install them using their unique swivel-bracket wall mounts. Optional FS1000 floor stands are also available.

What's in the Box
Six satellite speakers, 1 center-channel speaker, 1 subwoofer, satellite and center-speaker shelf stands, satellite wall-mount brackets, and all necessary cables, and a user's manual/installation guide.

Product Description

This is a high quality 8 piece speaker system from JBL to be used with a 7.1 channel system. It features an 8" , 100 watt subwoofer for excellent base. It includes the brackets for the satellites and uses a titanium-laminate tweeter for excellent high end response.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sounds Great, May 12, 2005

I did not expect to like these speaker as much as I do.

Due to space constraints and room configuration, a satellite/sub was the only viable solution for me. In the past, I have only used large tower speakers.

These speakers were easy to mount on the walls and are easy to "aim" toward the listening area.

Observable build quality seems to be quite high for the price of this system. The manual's instructions were clear and easy to follow.

I use the speakers equally for both music listening and home theater. The system sounds great at any volume and I have never noticed any limitations in their ability. Of course, I always set my receiver to utilize the sub.

Priced in the mid three hundreds, I have found this system to be a great value.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great system out of the box, February 16, 2006

Also own a system with bose acoustimas 3 for rears and acoustimas 5 for my fronts. Overall I would say these speakers sound pretty good for under $400 bucks, not quite Bose but are a tremendous amount cheaper. For a surround sound speaker package they handle plenty of power if you set them to Small if your amp has that option. Good clean sound (I used 16 gauge wire and not what they came with). The speaker stands are great that it comes with. Overall I would say they are a good value, they were shipped in a well packed box, no complaints.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great 7.1 system!, January 19, 2007

From the get-go, setup was simple. All speakers came with stands & wall mounts. They also came with large gauge speaker cables (included). The subwoofer also has its own connections - producing clear, thundering bass. Speakers perform at all levels of demand, including movies (BluRay), iPod, stereo, and High-Definition TV. There aren't many 7.1 speaker systems in general, but this one stands out above the rest, especially for the price.
