 impressive April 6, 2007

I wasn't exactly sure of what to think of these speakers at first.
My setup includes a pair of these speakers, connected to a 6.5" Klipsch woofer (from the GMX-A 2.1)
For $99, I wasn't sure if I would get much more performance than the stock sattelites from the Klipsch 2.1; however, I'm very impressed after a few days to adjust to the differences in sound. (The Klipsch were much more bright sounding, and as I liked that, I adjusted the equalizer on my computer for slightly more treble. After that, I would say these speakers sound great any way you listen to them).
My personal opinion was that they sounded somewhat flat on their own. I'm not sure how the woofer attached would alter the sound, but they seem to be nicely rounded on their own.
Recommended for anyone looking for a great price on a mid-range component.

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.

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.
JBL Venue Series Monitor 5-Inch 2-Way Speakers (Pair) September 11, 2007

Truly excellent product and value!
Looks well, is well-manufactured (solid), has almost 200-Watt peak power capability - AND sounds great as a Center Speaker for my family room home surround-sound system next to my 46" LCD TV (I used both of them, each on one side of the LCD panel, connected in series as 16 Ohms, not parallel). Perhaps OK as a small "Main" speaker, however, I would recommend using the larger JBLs for that purpose (I also own 2, 250-W very large JBLs for my 'Main' projector-based surround-sound system). I auditioned the speakers at local stores that wanted almost twice as much "on sale".

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.
