Deal Details
These are $2090 each on the JBL.com website, so this is a nice clearance deal.

These are basically the next-tier-up equivalent to the JBL Studio 680 which is currently being clearanced for $450 also here on Amazon.

The HDI series feature nicer build quality and parts; audible improvement is more likely with 2 channel music listening than during HT. Mainly for those folks who simply feel better spending a lot more money for similar performance.

This line is highly regarded in the objective / actually engineered for hi fidelity sound crowd.
I tested the 1600 'bookshelf' model it is an excellent speaker in nearly every possible way. I have not heard the towers but would expect them to be exceptional.
I hope jbl stays in the mid priced speaker consumer market. There is talk of them going only to the classic lines (L100,L82, ect) and the synthesis stuff which is typically bonkers expensive. (Everest, Summit series, crazy expensive home movie theater custom instal stuff,)

How does this qualify as a "slick" deal? According to Amazon Rufus, this has been the same price since January.

I hear ya. I would love to try a pair of 1600's out if they went on a good sale again. I also wonder what will happen to revel. Which is also owned by harman international. A subsidiary of Samsung. As I feel they're way overdue for a refresh. I do know they have rebranded a line of revel speakers recently with the Arcam badge.

Yes, this "clearance sale" has been going on for a while & probably will for even longer.

Having heard these & 6 series(also on clearance).
These are for the devoted JBL fan with maybe a large environment & listens at high levels.
The average person would likely find these do sound better but likely incrementally imo.
Definitely not worth over double the cost better imo.

I still have a pair of J350a's that sound amazing! Sadly the are too big after getting a new entertainment centerMad Still debating between JBL or SVS to replace them.

Unfortunately both Revel and JBL, which are both now owned by Samsung, are getting rid of their mid-level model series. JBL will have the Stage series (entry level, below the Studio series) and super expensive Synthesis series. Haven't heard anything about their Classic line, so I'm assuming those will probably stick around.
