#26 JBL AC25: $814.67 each Amazon eBay

Pros: An ultra-compact two-way installation speaker from JBL Professional with two 5.25” woofers and a tweeter. Audio Science Review measured a preference score of 0.43 that reaches 4.01 with an ideal subwoofer, with 0.79 listening window deviation. Measured bass extension of 124.5Hz (-3dB).
