Easy to operate

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This receiver is easy to operate. I like how there are many different listening options. The more we use it, we are discovering which options fit best for movies, TV, or Bluetooth. The Bluetooth option is great as we use our LR for workouts so being able to automatically link up to the aystem is great. Only drawback would be is that sometimes the receiver doesnt revert back to the last setting so we have to change it. It's easy to change but I would prefer is always startup with the last setting.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Outstanding Sound and Quality Build
on August 7, 2024
Posted by: Harman Fan
While attending Audio Advice Live this past weekend in Raleigh, I had a chance to audition the MA9100HP. I was impressed by the detailed, powerful sound that this AVR produced. After my questions were answered, I went ahead and ordered a 7100. It drives my Martin Logan Motion 40i speakers just fine. There is no strain. I have enjoyed well detailed sound. Setup was simple with no problems. I listen to 80% music, and the 7100 delivers! It replaced my Marantz SR6012, and actually sounds clearer and is more dynamic. The sonic signature is reminiscent of my Harman Kardon AVR and receiver. I am very pleased. Imaging is great, and is something you do not hear on many AVRs. I know that I am not of the target group that JBL is trying to attract, but take it from a 60+ Audiophile that this is a well built, and sounding AVR.

Sleek, versatile receiver

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The JBL Stage 2 Series speakers are an excellent system for phenomenal sound. They look great and I appreciate that we have the option to use them with or without the cover, depending on the look we’re going for. The speakers are solid and feel like they are well-made. Everything came boxed in a way that protected the speakers. While it made it somewhat difficult to remove from the boxes, it protected them from damage. Two of our boxes had pretty big holes in the outside but there was nothing wrong with the speakers inside. Set up was fairly straightforward. The knobs for the connectors made it easier than what we’ve experienced with older speakers. The number of speakers makes for truly amazing audio. They do take up a lot of space so I recommend making sure your room is large enough to accommodate all of them. The instructions are helpful for spacing but you need plenty of room to make the configurations work optimally. We did have to read and re-read the instructions to make sure we were doing everything correctly. The receiver is sleek looking and includes any port you might need. I really like that the front display is so simple, although the technology behind it is not. It is pretty large, though, so be sure you have shelf space for it! I

Insane sound, very versitile

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So this receiver has a ton of tricks up it's sleeve. Streaming through WiFi, using Bluetooth to cast music, full 7.1 surround sound, 2.1 stereo, this thing sounds amazing. Gobs of volume and it's not a huge size. Good functionality, it does require the JBL Premium app to fully set things up. Be warned: to take full advantage of this receiver, you need to do a LOT of hook up work to get everything wired up. In a world of wireless sound and plug and play, this is old school. Lots of speaker wire had to be run but the effort is worth it when you hear the full range of sound that this system can deliver. Movie special effects are theater quality. Remote control is simple, has 2 large control knobs that can toggle through all menus and set-up. And it's super cool looking with it's accent lighting that's adjustable. This is old school theater sound in a modern package
