#125 JBL LS80: $3,000 per pair Discontinued eBay

Pros: A three-and-a-half-way tower with two 8” woofers, a 2” titanium compression driver on a Bi-Radial horn and a ring radiator super tweeter. JBL’s data shows a very flat on-axis response (0.14 average deviation). Sensitivity is 90dB. Measurements show a preference score of 4.65 that reaches 6.32 with an ideal subwoofer, with 0.47 listening window deviation. Measured bass extension of 67.1Hz (-3dB).

Cons: JBL no longer makes it. Bass reaches 67.1Hz (-3dB) and about 34Hz (-10dB). That data is low quality. Discontinued.

How it compares: Just above it: JBL Project K2 S9800 - $13500 more. Just below it: Focal Aria Evo X N°2 - $899 more, 1.8Hz lower bass extension (-3dB).
