  • Deeply conflicted, Don't need them, Want them

    $99? chump change

    Should I?

  • +3

    $199 on their ebay site. Maybe they forgot the "1"?

    https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/JBL-CSB5-Bookshelf-Speakers-Pair…

    • I'm tempted even though I got 2 pairs on the previous deal… ignore the $799 RRP but this looks like a great deal from a reputable manufacturer

  • +1

    How would these go as rear surrounds in a 5.1 (or centre rears in 7.1) system, I wonder?

  • Cheap plasticy design. Seems like 8 years old.

  • Says pair in title, sold as single in specs.

  • Does anyone know if they can be used for desktop?

    • +1

      They appear to be passive, so you would need to buy a separate amplifier.

    • +1

      I have bookshelf speakers running from my PC. Motherboard sound > 3.5mm to RCA > $20 chinese stereo amp > speakers. Sound great.

  • +3

    "Video-Shielded Drives" from the pre-digital era

    I just bought and its for a pair, thanks to poster.

    Manual for these speakers were around in 2006? Old stock?

    https://www.manualslib.com/manual/79361/Jbl-Csb5.html

      They are. But as passive speakers they're unlikely to be outdated any time soon, no huge developments in design for, I dunno? 30 years? At $99 from a decent company they're a steal. Not going to have you blowing a stack (see what i did there?) but they'll sound pretty decent and much better value than what you'd get for the same price in a "new" design.

    I like the last one more daddy

      ಠ_ಠ

  • These vs Edifier R1580MB? Just got the Edifiers 24hours ago can still return them!

    • +3

      Edifier R1580MB are powered speakers. The ones in this deal are passive and will need an amplifier.

      @OP It might be a good idea to include in the title that these are passive.

        Thanks added into description ..

    • I'd keep the edifer. The JBL will need amp and sub by the look of its size and design. Cost same if not more.

  • +1

    The range is cinema sound. they are probably decent for the price, but not likely to be a very musical or detailed.

  • Anyone know where to find a very cheap receiver to match these with optical? be nice to add some not shit sound to a bedroom tv..

    • Facebook Marketplace. Pick up one a few years old for peanuts. I bought an Integra (fancy brand Onkyo) for $60 recently.

      If you can deal with one without HDMI, you will buy something very good for under $100

    • Try big op-shops too. My local Savers have a pretty frequent influx of AV equipment. Just picked up a fully functional Pioneer SC-LX85 for $40 the other day. Probably cheaper than scrap metals by weight. Best buy of the year for me.
