I'm curious about the 580 and frequency response but can't find it anywhere. Larger woofer than the JBL 530, has two of them and has larger box so curious how that lower end registers. I know it would be room-dependent but still curious.
THank you so much. Haha, I was hoping for a room curve like bass response vs the bookshelf slope we always get around 100-110hz but dayamn!!! That's a serious booty back there at 70hzDon't know if the measurements are any good and you will need to google translate, but FWIW:

The polish measurements are garbage. Over there most of their results feature dat booty.THank you so much. Haha, I was hoping for a room curve like bass response vs the bookshelf slope we always get around 100-110hz but dayamn!!! That's a serious booty back there at 70hz

Here's a Russian effort. Probably slightly more realistic.

They are easily worth the current $700 sale price at JBL direct.5
Thank you. Intresting that the top end doesn't look like Amir's measurements so I have to take the rest with a grain of salt. I waited too long to pull the trigger anyway. Pair of 580's for $480....Missed out. Oh well.
No I am sorry I did not.@ROOSKIE, did you try the foam port tube inserts that came with your 580s to see what effect they have on taming excessive bass?
hello,Just ordered a pair. Don't have any space for them, but I'm super curious to blind them against the Infinity R263 and JBL 308p.
hello,
did you have a chance to compare the infinitys to the jbls? I know it is room and equipment specific but really interested to read your thoughts it it
I actually slightly preferred the JBL. It wasn't blind, though, and I sold them to a friend who uses them now. Honestly, it was really close, but I did slightly prefer the JBL.
thanks Richard! that is interesting, i would have expected that the JBLs are a bit better in movies and the infinitys in music.
i currently have a Monitor Audio RX6 based 5.1 music setup but am thinking to spread those to 2 bedrooms and have a new set up with JBLs or infinitys. so you what made you sell the JBLs and keep the infinitys?
