Product Description
Amazon.com Product Description
Hungry for senses-tingling surround sound but tight on space or funds? You can still get the most from your DVD player and audio/video receiver with this full-range surround-sound speaker system from JBL. The SCS135SI's quartet of stylish silver satellite speakers (left/right front and left/right surround) and center-channel speaker fill a room with sound, while the 100-watt subwoofer rounds out the bottom end, delivering the floor-shaking bass supplied by a program's low-frequency-effects channel (the ".1" in a 5.1-channel presentation).

All speakers are video shielded to allow distortion-free placement on or around a television, and the satellite speakers may be mounted on optional stands, shelves, or the wall (via supplied wall-mount brackets). JBL recommends powering the satellites with 10 to 100 watts per channel--that's enough to enjoy exciting home-theater sound, but those seeking bigger thrills will want larger amplifiers and heavier-duty speakers.

Each satellite houses a 3-inch driver and 1/2-inch titanium-laminate dome tweeters, and the center-channel uses the same transducers as the satellites for seamless blending, but has two midrange drivers for extra power and clarity, since the center channel carries up to 70 percent of a film's sound (including most dialogue). The ported subwoofer uses a large, 8-inch woofer for bass reaching down to around 35 Hz.

The subwoofer offers versatile hookup options: you can feed it a dedicated LFE signal from your compatible surround receiver; you can feed it left/right stereo outputs from an extra pair of audio outs on your receiver or integrated amplifier; or you can wire it directly inline with two of the supplied satellite speakers or even your existing left/right stereo speakers. (JBL provides speaker wire for this purpose, and the detailed instruction book describes the precise hookup procedure.)

What's in the Box
Four satellites, a center-channel speaker, a powered subwoofer, four speaker-mounting brackets, requisite speaker cabling, and a user's manual.

5 out of 5 stars Great System.......2004-01-31

I had been looking to expand my home theater system for quite a few months when I came across this system. I had been looking up specs online and going into stores to see how they performed. I have a medium sized room and this system does very well. I already had to large tower speakers and was going to put two of the surround satellites in a box, but instead also bought the JVC 8030VBK receiver which can create 7.1 channel sound with any format, so instead I used them all. The subwoofer produces deep rich sounding bass very cleanly at half volume, it doesn't really distort at higher volumes, but instead tends to take over the sound field of whatever you are listening to. The satellites creates crisp and even highs throughout the room and the center channel provides really clean dialogue. The speakers also come with wall mounts and a lengthy amount of medium gauge speaker wire, which doesn't need to be upgraded and provides really easy wall installation. Overall I am very pleased with the system. Others I compared it too were the JBL 236si with the slightly larger speakers and louder subwoofer, but I found that the smaller speakers actually produced a better sound. I also compared it to the Onkyo HTS760 which almost sounded as good, but whose satellites were almost four times larger, bulkier, and uglier. I also compared it with the Sony Dream system which looked great but leaves a lot to wish for in the sound catagory. For the size, sound, look and price, this system cannot be beat. I recommend it with no reservations.

5 out of 5 stars theater sound.......2003-08-28

Excellent sound quality from these speakers when compared with others. The sound comes out crystal clear and does not even show distortion at higher levels.

5 out of 5 stars Happy with performance.......2003-08-08

The speaker system gives great sound at a fair price. The subwoofer produces more bass than you could ever need. The size of the speakers allow you to place them almost anywhere you want (even mounted as the mounts are included). This system gives us great sound with our DVD's, our HDTV, and our CD's. We think we made a good chose.
