Does the audio compare at all to JBL 2.1 12 Watt Subwoofer?

I'm still trying to figure stuff out, but my initial impression is very anemic audio.

I have made the decision to purchase the ln40a750, the only difference is the 750 has a subwoofer bass speaker in it. Worth it to me because I had no plans in hooking it up to stereo system.

I think the match is acceptable... At the same time a more powerful amp will sure do better. I was hoping for more "umph". Im going to try the speakers with a more powerful amp to see if theres any difference.

I have a powered sub also and am using the LFE.btw...I did some experimenting with the Speaker Settings because i actually have small bookshelf speakers for my surround setup (Energy CB-10 frt and Polk r30 back). So I set the Speakers to Small for the front and back and the Sub defaulted to 'Normal' (I think that's what it said) and it sounds much better now. Hope this helps.

I would say yes. I'm using it too power my two JBl 12's and it sounds great.

I'd say this model but If your looking to get the full potential from yours subs(I don't know what kind of jl's you own but still , there jl's) run a different amp, this amp runs 3-400 watts rms on its best days, it does this job, just not the best, it's a great bang on a budget, installed it on a buddies system and his 10" power acoustik does alright with it, if your gonna use this amp, I'd suggest buying two

The dayton Audio DA115-8 4 I bought was a replacement for the small subwoofer speaker I had in a home media audio system that went bad.. It has even better bass than it did before and can handle higher volume as well as being made of materials that will last longer than the speaker I replaced.. You will need to look at several other reviews of the PW577X to try and decide

Using the Energy ESW-8HG 8" 200 watt Take Classic subwoofer - just because I like to pair things if I can, sounds very good overall.Enjoy

Only difference is the Audio (15x2 watts and a subwoofer versus 10x2 watts) and thickness of the unit. 860 is ultra thin.

That's all in the "ear" of the beholder. I matched my JBL with a couple of older Bose front speakers we had and then puchased a set of Klipsch rear speakers I got a great deal on. It sounds good to myself and my family. I think you would need to purchsase the JBL and see (Listen) for yourself. If it doesn't meet your needs (Sound good with the primus speakers) then send it back. But I've been happy with it.

I returned this item! I had it in a 10 x 10 basement room/mancave and IN MY OPINION the sound wasn't good enough for the 2 of us playing a video game. The subwoofer lacks any kind of "woof". Volume between channels is almost indistinguishable and even with the system at max power I was still left wanting. Hope this helps.

The newer 400 might have some advantage with the subwoofer being long throw floor firing. Not sure if its a $200 advantage. Other than that I highly recommend getting a 60.6 set while they last. I have been extremely pleased.

Well I have two quantum cosmic series 12's on the 2.1500 and it sounds like my jeep is going to rattle apart. Both of my subs are rated at 1200 if I'm not mistaken . I'm happy with it's performance on both subs. Recently I bridged it onto just one of the subs and it sounds fine but it just won't tune right . But to answer your question I'm satisfied . As long as your not trying to hit on the db meter you'll be satisfied with the performance and the price

I have the VE-12s, which are the same speaker except a 12" sub-woofer instead of a 15" (actually gives lower bass response for some reason). This speaker pretty much provides its own sub. Any sub you will buy for a reasonable price will pretty much duplicate the effect of the big speaker anyway. Just buy a pair of these and a beefy stereo amp and enjoy the volume (if that's what you're into).

I have mine hooked up to a pair of JBL studio 190's and I can crank it all the way up with no distortion. It sounds great and yes, "real loud".

I have mine powered at 50w x4 and I would say the bass is fairly decent, it's punchy, but not very boomy. I definitely recommend backing these up with a small sub. Love the speakers, you won't find a better set for less than triple this price.

Overall, JBL produces high-quality speakers and some of them sound exceptional. For the astronomical price of $999 I am sure you cannot go wrong with this speaker. The JBL is capable of producing better sound from lower quality music. The B&W; will produce amazing music but only from amazing records. I am not sure you could compare these two models as apples-apples as they differ significantly in price and dimensions. You are getting an audiophile-quality system in any you choose. The B&W; is loud enough to fill a small room but a medium room will be filled more adequately with a JBL.
