Review 1 of 38
Price Paid:
$150.00
from can't recall Summary:
Bought these after listening to many, many different selections of outdoor speakers. Found these to have the best range of sound and much better bass than most. Strengths:
Solid across frequency range. Weaknesses:
These mamas are big. I tucked them under my deck but they still are very noticeable.
Don't come with wall mount brackets like the smaller model. Brackets are an additional $40-$50 bucks.

Review 2 of 38
Price Paid:
$220.00
from Harman Audio Online Summary:
These are gret for the price, i use them for music in a second room. The highs on these are super clean, decent mids and pretty good base for 6" speaks. The bass is lacking if you really enjoy bass, but with a decent reciever, im running a Yamaha on these, and put in something with a little base tehy perform nicely. Also they will go as loud as my 125 Watt per chanel amp will drive them without fatigue or distortion. Overall great speaks for the money Strengths:
LOOKS!! almost bought them for that lone, PRICE!! CONSTRUCTION, solid wood, large components, sturdy, Size, not as big as the mammoth N28's, Clarity Weaknesses:
slim to none, lacking in base Similar Products Used:
JBL n28 s26 Yamaha, denon etc

Review 3 of 38
Price Paid:
$189.00
from best buy Summary:
I do not actually own this product....YET! Like a good boy I did my research for about a week on the internet and found 4 different speakers to look at around the $200 range. The first was big KLH speakers with a 10" woofer. They were pretty big and had more bass than the JBL's and sounded almost as good. BUT they had to be played louder to sound as good. The JBL's sounded good at any volume level. They have an amazing bass response for their size and they can hold that bass for a very decent volume. I think they sound fuller than the 3-way 8" JBL bookshelf speaker (u might not believe me but seriously)!! The highs are so well dispersed i cant believe how wide and spacious they sound. There was another guy next to me looking at the same speaker and he also was checking to make sure a sub wasn't on... it sounded like it!! They have a very good design and the speaker material is superb. The N26 outdoor sounded horrible to these. Sony, KLH, Yamaha, and and small Bose cant match these. I have to say the closest you'll get to these it a big pair of bose towers or a tower yamaha...(still not that great for the size) Strengths:
Great bass for size, INCREDIBLE high dispersion, great design, great looks. Weaknesses:
if you listen to hip hop or techno at a very very high volume, you'll need a sub (hey they're only 6"!!!) Similar Products Used:
Sony 3-way bookshelf (crap) Yamaha NS-A638 (not bad) Bose bookshelf (pretty close) KLH floor speaker (only sounds good at higher volume)

Review 4 of 38
Price Paid:
$160.00
from Best Buy Summary:
I bought these speakers (N26II) based on JBL’s reputation and the positive reviews on various sites. I even compared them to similar priced speakers including the Infinity IL 10BLK which is also a 2 way with 6” driver. I found that I liked the sound of the JBL much better. I use these speakers as my mains for my surround system with a sub woofer and they do an excellent job. Great for music too. I have them matched with an N CenterII and will be adding the N24II’s for surrounds soon.
Infinity is a good speaker in that price range also, it just depends on what you like to here. Strengths:
Good high's, not to heavy on bass,very good speaker for the price Weaknesses:
None at this time Similar Products Used:
Infinity, Kenwood

Review 5 of 38
Price Paid:
$189.00
from Best Buy Summary:
I recently bought these speakers as a Christmas present for my girlfriend and they are fantastic. Reiterating what the others said, beautiful, crisp, articulate highs, and powerful lows (considering the 6-inch driver). Very impressed with the sound, especially for the price. Strengths:
Beautiful full sound for a reasonable price. Weaknesses:
Of course there are better speakers, but we are talking in the $200 range. I can't see any weaknesses under that consideration. Similar Products Used:
Bose 201, Bose 301
