WOW! Never have I heard any speakers that sound so good... These are absoloutley amaizing.... The JBL control 1's are small but powerful speakers. These are ideal for the profesional or the home user. The sound reproduction is probably the best I have heard. Even running off a home stereo they sound good. So long as the amp does the output these speakers will sound just fine.... they act great as satalite speakers and ideal for partys because of their small size. They are stylish too. The small size with the black colour looks excelent, but they are also producde in white so there is a choice. Also the logo on the speaker front spins round so no matter which way up the speakers are the logo is always the same way too... Overall a good buy for the money.
...of these speakers with the JBL Control SB2 Sub Bass Speaker. The single cone Sub is designed to drive 2 pairs of top speakers in stereo. Having switched the system on for the first time today and got some music running through it I was primarily amazed at the projection of these little babies. They throw the sound really well and the overall sound I can describe in one word: Crisp! Without the Sub Bass unit these speakers extend down to 80hz which ... ...more likely suffer tinitus before these speakers gave up and popped their cones. For the money these are a bargain. Some places are doing them for £69.99 a pair and at that price, coupled with the sound quality and JBL heritage, you could do worse, a lot worse! ...

Advantages: Excellent sound for an excellent price! Solid build, 100 watts RMS Disadvantages: None for the price!
...have owned 2 pairs of JBL Control 1 speakers and they have never let me down! The first pair I owned I gave to my dad as he liked the sound so much!
These are bookshelf speakers and measure (H x W x D) 227 x 130 x 140 mm. They can be mounted on a stand, on a shelf or you can also order the wall brackets from jbl.
For the size they have an excellent sound, warm solid bass with crisp mid and treble. They are 100 watts RMS and can really handle some ... ...4" bass woofer and a 1/2" titanium laminate dome tweeter. These speakers also feature a front mounted bass port. When you play the speakers loud its is astonishing the amount of air that is forced out of the bass ports! The speakers case is extremely tough, I have dropped one of my speakers (accidently, not some extreme test!) from head height to the floor and it survived! The speakers also have tough removable metal grills with rubber edgings. The ...

Advantages: Compact Size Good Sound Disadvantages: Bass response
JBL although most people have probably not heard of them they are one of the top speaker manufacturers in the world. They are mainly involved in manufacturing speakers for concert venues and cinemas, next time you visit your local multiplex and the lights are on have a look at the speakers and most likely they are JBL.
The control1 is from the professional series of speaker and I believe is still available today. They are marketed as compact monitors and are quite heavily used in small environments such as bars and small theatres etc, as for their size they produce an excellent sound.
I have had my 4 speakers for around 4 years and use them with my Sony Dolby Digital amplifier to provide the sound to my DVD?s. When I purchased the speakers they cost around £70 from Richer Sounds, they are, from looking on the web are still ...
Advantages: Great sound, pro speakers Disadvantages: A bit small
for a pair of 12 inch speaker cones he has lying in the garage, I don't think my JBL's will be replaced.
-Background-
JBL have been making speakers for over 50 years. They aim to provide precision sound quality that is available to everyone.
-The box-
The box is a white colour with a black top and outlining. It has Control1X written on the side. The box is just big enough to fit the 2 speakers in it perfectly. The speakers sit into a polystyrene sleeve. I don't know if there are any instructions with these speakers as I didn't get them in a shop and I don't know if my dad has them lying around somewhere.
-Where they can be used-
The Control1X is a compact personal size speaker so it can be put anywhere, shelf walls (if brackets used) etc. They will fit most hi-fi systems by connecting them with speaker cables (can be ...
