Complete 6-Piece Home Cinema Speaker Package / Four 2-way satellites, center channel, powered subwoofer / Wall mounts included
Buyer Reviews :
Moving into a townhouse with a smaller living room, I was forced to give up my Yamaha NS-A638 bookshelf speakers, which I liked very much. After a great deal of research into smaller speaker systems, both online and in stores, I decided to buy the JBL SCS150.
The sound from the speakers is surprisingly crisp and clear, given the fact that engineering a speaker that is both small and good-sounding is very difficult. The subwoofer's bass output is fantastic also. As a test, I played the beginning of 'Saving Private Ryan,' the end of 'Star Wars: Episode II-Attack of the Clones,' and the beginning of 'Toy Story 2' (all on DVD). The sound was a marked improvement over my old speakers and they were even better at picking up some of the subtle background effects in the rears, compared to my old speakers.
Of course, a person can pay more for speakers that are smaller (the satellites measure 16' high) or even better sounding, but the JBL package is a good balance of budget and sound. As a nice rounding touch, the box also includes ample speaker wire and wall-mounting brackets.
There are only a few negatives. First, some people may not like the dark gray/silver casing of the speakers. I thought I would hate it myself, but I am beginning to think it is rather elegant. The subwoofer's physical size is rather large, almost the size of a small end table. Finally, my biggest complaint is the rather weird footprint of the satellite speakers ... it is not entirely flat and the holes underneath are set towards the back, meaning that owners will have to take a bit of caution as they hunt for compatible stands for these speakers. JBL does make a set of stands for them, which can be purchased on their website.
Overall, I'd highly recommend this package for those who want to do home theater in a room, but must do it with budget and space in mind.
