Personal Review

"I bought the JBL Bookshelf Speakers and found them strong in mid and high frequencies, built with solid MDF construction, and easy to mount. If you prefer a punchy bass, you may need a separate subwoofer. Despite a few downsides, these speakers offer a satisfying listening experience for the average user at a reasonable price point."

Bass Response
6
The bass response of the JBL Arena B15 appears to be its weakest area, it lacks depth and punchiness. You may want to pair them with a subwoofer to fill out the low end.
Treble Detail
8
The JBL Arena B15 provides a fairly neutral treble detail. The tweeter tends to be slightly bright and provides pleasing high-end detail and clarity.
Midrange Clarity
8.5
The JBL Arena B15 delivers a smooth and articulate mid-range performance. The mid-range is strong and provides great clarity, making them great for a variety of genres.
