About this product

Get big Hollywood sound from a home theater speaker system that’s small and elegant. The JBL® CS480 delivers realism with four satellites, advanced titanium-laminate-dome tweeters, and 3-1/2-inch drivers. A voice-matched horizontal center speaker uses two midranges for dialogue power and clarity. And a potent 125-watt subwoofer rocks the room.
