Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

The bass is tight and full, with good articulation and a sense of body to acoustic instruments. Cymbals, guitars and vocals just sound totally natural. Bass is deep and crystal clear but not very punchy imo.

If you're into vocalists, these are some speakers worth trying out. They can be cranked to high levels without distortion. Best when used when the listener is at somewhat of a distance from the speakers.

Unique look will be eye catching.

They are rock solid and seem hard to overdrive without insane levels of power. Build quality is very good and will not break or tarnish if taken care of. They have small nicks and dents but nothing off putting.

In person the studio 580 appears to be one of jbls best architectural pieces. The studio 190 are a great speaker and big bang for the buck. This applies to the 570.

Cons

The feet are so cheap i could see them flexing from the weight of the speaker, and was afraid to move them. The bass was all thump and no precision. And the poor quality of mdf / vinyl / crossovers / speaker cones & caskets / binding posts / outpo... Read More

Considering the price point and sound quality, i would expect a pretty standard rectangle shape.

Shipping

Im glad jbl sent these speakers out with way too little of shipping protection.

I understand that these are difficult to come by, but i picked up mine last december from harman's ebay site for $477 each, new... Read More

Packaging/appearance

I moved the bookshelfs to the rear and already had the matching center in place.

Competitiveness

This impression is from hooking them up to just a dayton 60w class t amp and a fiio e17 dac and playing 256kbps mp3s.

Next up, i tried the new bluray audio release of the classic patricia barber lp, modern cool.

I now have them connected to a dayton apa150 amplifier, preceded by a yaqin cd3 tube buffer with tung-sol 6sn7gtbs.

I tested a variety of bluray discs, starting with my reference disk, the roy orbison black and white night concert.
