That JBL sound!
on July 9, 2014
Posted by: Tadpole
from Nashville, TN, United States
Let me start by saying that I purchased a pair of JBL studio monitors back in the early eighties and used them as my "reference speakers" for over thirty years. I finally retired them last year - still in perfect working order.
The next thing I would like to disclose, is that I am a speaker junkie. I love music. I love the sound of music. I have been on a quest for the perfect speaker all of my life, and have owned virtually every speaker you could think of.
I have missed my JBL's ever since I sold them. No matter what other speaker phase that I have gone through over the years (and there have been many), I always came back to the JBL's. No other speaker that I have found could do everything so "right".
I am pleased to say that the same is true for the new JBL Studio 590's. Now, let me warn you, these things are BIG. No matter what you expect, they are bigger than that! But the payoff is massive sound, or "solid walls of sound" as Elton John put it so many years ago. Yet with their huge walls of sound, they can be delicate and light as a feather when the music passage calls for it. And the best thing to me is that they have that "JBL sound" that I have been missing. It's hard to put into words, but kind of a natural and organic sound and feel. I have owned other brands that were technically more precise, but that, in the end, was the problem - they sounded "technical". These JBL's sound "musical". These speakers are enjoyable to listen to for hours on end. They are a very rich sounding speaker.
My only caution would be the size, and that you had better have a pretty robust amp for them (like all JBL's). I am using a Peachtree pushing about 250 watts to them and that seems about right, but I think that 300 - 500 watts might be even better.
My advice would be to buy a pair, get your favorite music, and settle in... for the rest of your life!

Best home JBL speaker available

This is plain and simple the best JBL speaker out there - available for the home.
You can see how their pro knowledge has seeped into their home line.
I will probably also augment these with a pair of JBL STX 828 speakers for more low end, but, if, in the future, JBL added two 15 inch speakers to the L590 cabinet, it would have the best home speaker in the entire space time continuum.

I need a bigger Room. These babies are big enough to fill the entire concert stage area in a nice barroom.
