Great Speaker September 25, 2009
Derek White (Orem, Utah United States)
This is a great speaker that is worthy of the JBL name. Great power, great clarity, great sound reproduction, great high and low frequency.
Vibrant September 12, 2009
teetertotter (Badger State)
I have been a JBL believer since 2004 with my EC series Northridge 5 speaker system. The ES series is a step above The EC 35 was the best investment I ever made for a center speaker hooked up to my Yamaha Receiver at that time. Wow! This center speaker has you right there at the moment with practically original voices coming right at you that are crisp and clean! My right and left speakers are E20's and the backs are E10's.
br /
br /What now has blown me away today is replacing my 5 year old Yamaha receiver with Denon's AVR-1910, which has REALLY brought my JBL speakers to life with ALL its potential! My Yamaha subwoofer is still the 8 year old 8 inch.
br /
br /JBL EC or ES series are truly affordable with BIG sound with cross over clarity! Especially HUGE with my new $500.00 Denon Receiver.
Full range sound- for sure!! April 25, 2009

I have a full JBL surround as far as speakers, and I've always just used the TV as center. I bought a Harman Kardon receiver last October and the processing delay no longer allowed for that set-up. I borrowed my roommates JVC center speaker to do the job and it sounded decent. It's a nice speaker, but it just didn't blend or match. I did some research and went to the local Fry's and listened to a few and settled on this JBL, came home and ordered it for 1/3 the price off Amazon.
br / I didn't realize what I was in for till it arrived and I opened it up. Like everything else, it's bigger once you get it home and where it's going to go. I hooked it up and WOW!! The voices got so much more full and rich with their range and filled the room much much better. Add to this, I can no longer sit and close my eyes and pick out where each front speaker is and which one the sound is coming from. It all blends into a seamless wall of sound like it should! I guess I didn't realize how important the center channel was and am very very happy with this one.
br / If you're looking for a full range and powerful center speaker with excellent sound/detail reproduction, this one will definitely do the job. However, I must express the importance of matching up with your existing speakers for a seamless sound. Not necessarily by brand, but by ability and size. This would be way too much speaker if you just have a couple little satellites or tiny bookshelf speakers for your front. If you have full range speakers for your front channel's, this will compliment extremely well.
br / I also just want to add how well the directional reproduction in the room is with center and with the JBL Balcony Series that I'm running for the side channels. They were definitely a great addition as well and pair up with the crisp highs this center puts out to really give the room a true 3D sound quality. I've put in and cranked up a couple concert DVD's and watched a few live concerts on the Palladia Channel HD (digital sound feed) at close to full volume, and I must say that it sounds so good that I really feel like I'm at the concert!! (Even waking up with the foggy-head and ear-ringing till noon the next day).
br / I consider myself an audiophile. I've owned Carver and Bang Olufsen through the years. (I justified a set of BO ear buds for $200 without blinking an eye.) I personally will say that this is an awesome center, and for it's price point and sound quality it earns high marks for it's performance within my set-up. I'd say it's totally worth the $400 that Fry's wanted for it, and that the $160 I got it for on Amazon was a steal!!
Great center March 4, 2009
R. Rodriguez (Houston, TX)
I wanted to post a quick ditty on my new JBL center speaker because there's really not alot of info about it. I have a 7.2 system with 2 Venue monitors in front and 4 venue Balcony's plus 2 PA-120 subs in a mid sized room. I wanted to upgrade, finally my 5 yr old Yamaha center so I looked at what was affordable and could closely timbre match my other JBL's(I still have L26's from 1973).
br /
br /1st, I know I don't have front towers but my room layout wife are roadblocks.
br /
br /I gotta tell you...this center sounds incredible, goes well with my other JBL's. I put in Band of Brothers - Bastogne at the beginning where the bullets are whizzing by and that scene was completely new to me.
Completes my HT nicely January 3, 2009
Siddhartha Jain (San Francisco CA)
I ordered this new to fit in with:
br /- Two JBL Northridge E80 floorstanding
br /- Four (two rear and two surround) JBL Control 25 speakers
br /- Yamaha 8" sub
br /- Yamaha HTR-5230
br /
br /I am no audiophile but this center channel delivers all voice crisp and clear and my HT sounds great.
