JBL Studio 530

Thought they quit making this model. Glad they didn't. Great dynamic speaker, but too powerful for near field, like on a computer desk. Sounds best 5 to 6 feet apart, on stands, in small to moderate sized room.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Amazing!

Purchased these as surrounds to a Studio 5 series 5.1 set up paired with a L8400P sub. These actually hade a noticeable difference compared to the Studio 220s they replaced. Amazing crystal clear sound that matches perfectly with the 590s and a 520C center channel. Crisp natural highs, and amazing deep bass for a smaller speaker. Once in place the surround experience is completely open, and sounds flows so smoothly between channels!
These are hands down the best bookshelf speakers for the price point (even out perform MUCH more expensive speakers) and I will not hesitate to recommend these to anyone looking for these for surrounds or for any other application. Buy these while they are available, because you will regret not buying them if they are taken off the market again. I waited 2 years for these to be made again and it was worth the wait!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Outstanding clarity and dynamics

I bought 4 months ago to replace wharfedales Emeralds 97. These are much more lively and still refined. I have a 14 by 12 room for music only. I run JRiver Media Center, Windows 10 with a Synology DS218 NAS through a Topping D50S DAC to an older Yamaha DSP-A1 receiver. I also have a Dayton Audio DS1000 10" sub.crossed in at 70 Hz. I installed the bass plugs that came with the speakers as I don't need their reinforement and their 1 ft from the wall. This combination is amazing. These speakers work well for all kinds of music. I'm mainly fusion jazz and 70s rock.

Just check out the reviews online. These speakers didn’t disappoint. Incredible highs and just enough on the low end.
