Deal Details
The Studio series sale appears to be over, but JBL has a sale on the Stage series of speakers now.

A130 Bookshelves $180 / pair - https://www.jbl.com/home-audio/ST...home-audio OOS

A170 Tower $180 each - https://www.jbl.com/home-audio/ST...home-audio

A180 Tower $240 each - https://www.jbl.com/home-audio/ST...home-audio OOS

A190 Tower $300 each - https://www.jbl.com/home-audio/ST...home-audio OOS

A135c Center $180 each - https://www.jbl.com/home-audio/ST...home-audio OOS

I ordered a pair of A130s to compare to the Studio 530s that I got from the previous sale. If I like the A130s they will probably take over for HT and I'll move the 530s to my desk.

I've been wanting an excuse to update my Pioneer Andrew Jones towers and center. These look like a decent upgrade

I appreciate the unique design of the center that keeps it low profile, but don't think these speakers offer a huge upgrade over the 2nd AJ line. These are mass market JBL at good prices. Conventional speakers with dome tweeters, nothing special.

The Infinities that have been posted are better and similarly priced. The JBL studios that get posted so often are in a different class, but also much more expensive.

In these price ranges I'd go for the Infinities on sale.

The slim center was what really caught my eye.

Good to know. I've wanted the Infinity speakers for a while now but always seem to be a day late on getting them on sale.

The 3-way infinity center is comically huge to most folks, but it's worth it. So many lines are held back by weak center channels. That infinity lineup is not one of them.

I'm looking at the JBL Stage A120's. I found a great review for the A130 but don't see any for the A120 (assuming it will be similar with less bass) for 150 on crutchfield. Anyone have any thoughts on the smaller model? I will be using it nearfield for my computer on desktop.

Yes on paper the Studios are "better" whether that difference is "worth" it to you, you would have to listen to both to actually know.
