Wow that's good news, I'm not the only nut in the world...grin They really are nice even if a bit pricy, but ay JBL has been making speakers for a really long time. THe only one who might be able to top this is Bose and I bet if they made something like this, it would cost more, but you can bet they'd sound like a full-blown stereo..grin >Scott and List, > >I had the same experience at RS, got the JBL speaker set, and can't say enough good about them either. Like you, I could do with a bit more separation, but it's absolutely the best pair of small, battery-powered speakers I have ever se en. I've had a couple $20 pairs as well, and there's no comparison. >
