I recently had the opportunity to experience JBL’s new MA AV receiver and Stage 2 Loudspeakers. What’s exciting about these is their suitability for the average consumer in terms of price, ease of setup, and features

JBL ’s new MA AV Receiver and Stage 2 Loudspeakers are priced at $400 to $1,600 for the MA AVR.

Retail prices range from $ 300-$1,200 per pair for the JBL Stage 2 speakers.

EZ Set EQ offers an AR-generated calibration feature that scans the room and intelligently informs you about the optimum location of each speaker for the ideal listening experience.

Though I would have loved more imaging (a better idea of the placement and position of the instruments in the orchestra), I can attribute that to the modest 2.1 speaker system we were demoing on. The song’s chorus brings a powerful low-end that, concerned about muddiness, I was almost nervous to hear for the first time. I breathed a sigh of relief when I heard the precisely controlled but punchy bass. The JBL Stage 2 speakers obviously did the song justice, given that others in the room were soon quizzing me about the artist..
