5 out of 5 stars Excellent Product!!   January 6, 2009
J. Glenn (Indiana)
I bought these speakers for my wife to use with our MP3 player in our kitchen. It is a smaller kitchen, and a under cabinet CD Player wouldn't fit, but these work perfectly. The sound quality is great (although I don't have much to compare it to), and they look really sleek. Excellent buy!


4 out of 5 stars Great speakers but with some caveats   January 6, 2009
W. Romero (Texas, USA)
As many other users have stated, the speakers sound great. Voices and music sound clear, and have noticeable bass.

Caveats:
- The knob is slippery, so you probably don't want to adjust them that often. Use audio controls on your computers instead.
- The speakers absolutely will not turn on without the power cord. On my old Sony SRS A37s, I could run them without power at the cost of bass and lower volume, but no sound comes out the JBL's at all.



5 out of 5 stars Amazing Sound!   January 6, 2009
Erika B. Moran (andover, MA United States)
I have a love of loud music and blew the speakers on my husband's Mac Pro. I read great reviews on these speakers and bought them. They are AMAZING!!!!! I even bought another pair for my kitchen. They sound great and don't cost much.


5 out of 5 stars JBL Duet Speakers sound awesome!   December 25, 2008

These JBL Duet speakers truly sound great! I use them hooked up to my Ipod Shuffle and they sound awesome, for such a small 2 channel speaker set up. Do not expect major bass, because they do not have sub-woofer. They do clearly bring to the table, quality sound that more expensive speakers bring, for a fraction of the cost. I would recommend these to anyone in the market, looking for a two channel speaker system for there computer, portable audio devices or gaming.


5 out of 5 stars Really good!   December 25, 2008

The speakers are surprisingly good for something so cheap. Simple set up: i.e. plug and play. There are no subwoofers, balance control, etc, but I really can't complain.
