Strength:
accuracy and size!
Weakness:
nothing considering! Great treble and mid range, bass is good up to a point, but perhaps it's because i use a pioneer sx-1250 with them. Very pleasing for price! Similar Products Used: none |

Strength:
The overall presentation is very balanced. The speakers have a smooth midrange and high frequency response. I was also pleased with the volume that could be produced from such a small package. The ability to Bi-wire such inexpensive speakers is also a great feature.
Weakness:
None for such a small speaker system. I use these speakers in my bedroom system mounted on suitable, stable speaker stands with a Harman/Kardon integrated amp and an NAD CD Player. I have never been as happy with a speaker purchase in my life. I can recommend these to anyone desiring a small quality speaker system for a moderately sized space. Bi-wiring these speakers really open up the the midrange and improve the soundstage as well. Similar Products Used: I have a pair of Celestion 3s and a pair of Paradigm Titans to compare these speakers to. The Celestions have a very nice treble and the Titans have excellent bass for their size. The JPWs are much more balanced overall than the other two. |

Strength:
Beautiful, smooth, crisp highs and mid freq. bands
Weakness:
Not much bass, what does one expect from a driver about 4 inches diameter. However it produces pretty tight bass. This pair of bookshelf sounds as good as if not better then B&W loudspeakers around the same price range in the past. I am a B&W loudspeaker fan but must confessed that B&W does have its misses also but not the 800matrix or nautilus series. JPW 310's mid and highs freq. bands are beautiful, I feel that they are more on the brighter side but nice to me. They will take on B&W V201i and trash them except the bottom end. Similar Products Used: B&W V201, V201i - good for classical, Great for rock |

I purchased these speakers to hook to my NAD 310 and a future NAD CD Player in my bedroom. I was pleasantly surprised by the smoothness and musicality of these speakers. They have crisp smooth treble and full mid-bass. Don't expect much deep bass from the 4 inch woofer but the bass that is there is clear and very tight. Sound Organisation makes beautiful matching stands for these speakers. I highly recommend them for a second set or to match with a subwoofer. |

These little speakers are GREAT!! I auditioned these speakers against the similarly price NHT SuperOne, and Paradigm MiniMonitors, and found that I liked these better. Against the NHT, the jpw had a fuller bottom end, and overall they were more detailed and had a fairly warm midrange compaired to the NHT's almost sterility. The Minimonitors bass was much fuller than the JPW's, and perhaps the detail was a tiny bit better, but I also thought that the MiniMonitor's treble was harsh by comparison. The SuperOne, MiniMonitor, and 310 are all good speakers and are worth auditioning depending on your needs and wants, but I would have to say that I think these JPW's are the best bookshelf under 600 bucks. |

Weakness:
not many for the size The 310’s are excellent value for money, providing a clear concise and refined midrange and treble. They lack a little in bass, but then they are small and u can’t have everything, can you? I’m using them as my rear speakers on a home cinema system; once you place them at the correct distance from the back wall (if u have one) they sound great combined 510’s at the front. |
