JBL CS6100BG Review

The JBL CS6100BG Complete 6-Piece Home Theater System is a mighty fine speaker system for the money spent. The list price for the JBL CS6100BG is $1,199.00, which is a good chunk of change for anyone who isn’t an audiophile, yet it’s a good investment if you care about sound quality. For your money you get an amazing sound system, which is frankly much better sounding that anything in a lower price bracket.

The five speakers produce vibrant, clear sound that will most likely make you hear things that you otherwise might have missed in your favorite movies. They don’t sacrifice sound quality for style, either. The JBL CS6100BG’s speakers are as fantastic sounding as they are incredibly stylish.

The 10 inch subwoofer is powered by a 300W amp and it packs a powerful punch for your movies or music. It’s a much larger step up from other all-in-one kits that usually come with an 8 inch or less sub with much less power behind them. Read the JBL CS6100BG Review »

JBL CS480BG Review

If you are looking for an all around speaker for your home entertainment system then the JBL cs480bg is by far your best choice. The versatility of this system is astounding and offers an incredible sound that you need to hear to believe. The speakers are small yet they have a punchy crisp sound that is perfect for a room that isn’t very large. The sound quality is great for all types of movies and video games and they are consistent for listening to any style of music. Just be sure that when listening to music, use a CD player rather than a DVD player and use 5 channel stereo or else it will wont sound right. It is very surprising to hear so much sound with incredible detail and deep rich bass coming out of such a small speaker. They can be compared to any of the Bose speakers as far as performance yet they are priced less and offer the same quality. JBL has always offered a great product when it comes to speakers and they have truly lived up to their reputation.

Installation is easy too. I liked the option of two sets of brackets both pivoting and fixed that are included in the system and the screw terminals are of high quality and can handle 10 gauge wire. Everything you need to install comes with the speakers, even the speaker wire, however if you are planning to use them in a bigger room, you will need to purchase more wire.

The grills are a bit cheap looking but everything else about the system is great.
