Compact Bluetooth Powered 4.5" Desktop Reference Monitors designed for recording musicians, DJ, podcasters, and music and video producers of all levels
With JBL One Series Reference Monitors, you’ll hear true clarity and detail with no colouration. The 104-BTs deliver crisp highs and rich bass just as intended. Plus, they’re acoustically optimised for desktop placement with neutral low-frequency performance. And their smooth off-axis response means you can monitor with confidence in a wide sweet spot.
Taking professional, compact reference monitors to the next level, One Series 104-BT (black) and 104-BTW (white) speakers feature Bluetooth 5.0 wireless audio streaming. With Bluetooth compatibility, audio producers have the flexibility to reference their mixes through wireless or wired connections to ensure their tracks sound great on all listening devices.
The world’s top recording studios and touring artists rely on JBL Professional monitors to deliver unparalleled fidelity and performance. Now, they’ve optimised that technology in their smallest form factor ever. The One Series reference monitors’ innovative new coaxial driver design features a high-frequency driver aligned with a precisely contoured woofer cone to deliver accurate response, exceptional detail and impressive off-axis performance for the most neutral, accurate presentation, desktop to desktop, room to room. Plus, the cabinet’s precisely contoured low-frequency port works with the driver to provide accurate bass at all listening levels. And with low frequency extension down to 60 Hz, you’ll be impressed with the bass you get, even without a subwoofer.
JBL 104 BT reference monitors offer premium performance, even at loud playback levels. This is accomplished through clean, integrated 60-watt Class D amplification that distributes 30 watts per speaker. And with their efficient design, One Series speakers can be driven to 104db SPL (peak), without the distortion found in other monitors in their class.
JBL One Series reference monitors were created with the modern production lifestyle in mind. They not nly feature a sleek, new look for JBL, but with their compact size, content creators can get legendary JBL sound even in smaller workspaces. Smart features like a front-panel volume control allows convenient level adjustments without straying from the sweet spot, the front-panel headphone jack automatically mutes the speakers, providing isolation in one simple step, and dual 1/4-inch balanced and single 1/8-inch unbalanced TRS inputs, plus Bluetooth accommodate a wide range of sources. In addition, 104-BT and 104-BTW include a front panel selector that allows you to easily switch between inputs or keep them all active.

There was a little glitch with dispatch, I wasn't bothered but the guys at mix foundation reached out to me when they noticed and got it fixed up, I really appreciated the phone call.
I have a complex set up for my home sound system enjoying playing my records over 2 decks, 10 speakers providing sounds in various rooms (and 3 amps to run them), and of course a bass, and wanting various input sources (computer, decks, radio, usb etc). When my valve linestage died, I needed something to run this complex system or had to rethink the whole set-up. I looked at pre-amps, but all had limited inputs or were very pricey to meet my needs...then someone suggested a mixer and the Allen & Heath ZED-10 is truly multipurpose! It gives me so much more versatility than a pre-amp in the way I can run the system, and I still have spare input sources available. Everything is sounding great, and I can adjust/equalize the different inputs (which I was not able to do before). In my opinion for the price tag you really get great quality and value for money. Note: I'm not an audio expert so apologies if the terminology used is not the best.
