Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
As affordable as it is all-purpose, JBL's 3-way Northridge Series E90 floorstanding speaker is capable of delivering clear, dynamic sound for both music and movies. With the E90, your program's bass and midrange frequencies--efficiently boosted by the speaker's dual 8-inch woofers--come through loud and clear, without unwanted distortion or boominess.

The Northridge E90 is sold as a single speaker. Buy two for stereo uses or pick up five--or merely three--for use in surround-sound applications; only three if you'll be using two other speakers to serve as the left/right front or surrounds. If your TV is on a high shelf or mounted on the wall, as would a flat-panel set, you can simply position the "center channel" speaker beneath it (or check out the traditional Northridge E center channel, too).

Be aware that you don't need a television to enjoy multichannel surround sound: the SACD, DVD-Audio, and DTS-CD formats all make ample use of full-range center-channel speakers, providing you have the space and the inclination to set up speakers for five- or 5.1-channel music listening. Use a powered subwoofer for the ".1" low-frequency effects channel, or configure your surround receiver to fold the ".1" signal into the audio feeding the other speakers--with the E90's 36 Hz bass rating, you'll have plenty of bass even without a subwoofer.

The speaker's Elliptical Oblate Spheroidal (EOS) waveguide imbues sound with unparalleled spaciousness and definition, and the speaker uses a titanium-laminate tweeter to reproduce high notes with extraordinary clarity. The PolyPlas (polymer-coated cellulose fiber) cone woofers feature traditional JBL engineering--the same technologies used in JBL's Professional equipment, which is found in stadiums, music halls, and movie theaters around the world.

Shielded components allow speaker placement near video monitors. A low-diffraction IsoPower baffle directs the sound power into the room, reducing distortion from cabinet vibration.

The speaker's lock-mitred, computer-designed enclosure requires no internal bracing. Its flared, FreeFlow port increases bass response without adding unwanted port noise (sometimes heard as "chuffing" when you really crank your tunes). JBL's custom-designed drivers allow the use of simple, Straight-Line Signal Path (SSP) crossover networks with high-quality electrical components that minimize processing that could degrade the signal. Finally, JBL has outfitted the E90 with all-metal, gold-plated, five-way binding-post speaker terminals for secure and flexible hookups, from bare wire to banana-plug jacks.

What's in the Box
One speaker, a speaker grille, and a user's manual.

5 out of 5 stars Super Sound.......2006-11-03

You get a super crisp sound. By up grading from my old Bozaks to the JBL was like turning on a new receiver. Great speakers for the money you don't need to spend a lot for great sound. I love them.

4 out of 5 stars The jbl e-90 are very good sounding tower speakers.At 400 bucks with free shipping for the pair is a steal........2006-03-09

The jbl E90 is a very good sounding speaker system.At 400 bucks for the pair,this is very good deal.The speakers are a little bright and are best used with neutral sounding seperate amplifers or a high current receiver rated for more than 100 watts at 4 ohms...If the amplifier has a 2 ohm ,high current rating,thats good too.Most amps clip or limit without 4 drive,and contrary to popular belief,A low powered or current limited amp can damage your speakers more easily than a amp. that is loafing along.You will need a good subwoofer with these speakers..I highly recommend these speakers. !Enjoy!.I thank you Stewart L.

5 out of 5 stars Sound great to me.......2006-03-04

Amazon recently dropped their price for these speakers (to about half of list), and offers free shipping, too. For items that weigh 50 lbs. apiece, that's a really good deal. I've had these for two weeks, and they sound great. I mainly use them as part of my 5.1 surround sound setup, but I tested them with music, too. I checked out the E60 and E80 models at a local store, and liked them. The E90 is better!

4 out of 5 stars A real big sounding speaker for those who wish to make a statement........2005-12-20

This speaker system has a very deep soundstage,and rock solid bass...These speakers take up a lot of space...The highs are a little bright...These speakers will give you a definate "wow factor"...Add a good subwoofer,like the top of the line velodyne subwoofer..."Enjoy" Not for small apartments...These speakers are "definate", lease breakers,for sure...Please note for home theater use,i think smaller speakers,might be a better choice...It all breaks down to individual tastes in music...Please audition,these speakers in person at a dealer or friend who own these speakers,and please only purchase from a dealer,with a good refund/return/exchange policy...I thank you stewart L. 12/19/05.

4 out of 5 stars Good value, If you get a good price.......2005-12-12

Price is all over the place on these so shop around.

I am a bit of an audio buff, but on a budget. I also believe in diminishing returns as you go higher in price. For me I hoped these hit the sweet spot. I am happy with the sound. I have JBL E10 Surrounds E90 Mains, EC35 Center, and a Velodyne DPS-12 sub paired with a Yamaha 5760. Movie experience is as good as I could hope for. Sounds fantastic! Music is great, but could be better. I tried to audition speakers and receivers but just got too frustrated, so I bought this system based on reviews and price.

If you are not going to have a sub or like tons of bass, Get the E100 with the 10" woofers. The E90s are nice with a sub and were the right size for my set up (I considered the overall hieght and position of the tweaters relative to the screen).

I cannot emphasize enough how important the Center Speaker is for movies. This was my first surround system and I am glad I bought the best center channel I could in the Northridge series (EC35). So much of the movie sound goes to the center.

The E10 surrounds were a real surprise for me: Great sound for such a little inexpensive speaker. I was going to get E20s but they are just to big to put on the wall.
