The SCL-5 is the highest performing round in-ceiling model in the JBL Synthesis Custom Loudspeaker (SCL) series. It is designed for deployment in high-performance immersive audio systems in medium to large size rooms. The SCL-5 features JBL’s patented 2409H 1-inch (25mm) compression driver mated to an offset High Definition Imaging (HDI™) horn. This patented horn design is integrated with an angled 7-inch (180mm) Advanced Aluminium Matrix cone cast-frame woofer operating behind an acoustic aperture waveguide. The innovative configuration yields incredibly smooth and consistent performance for off-axis placement up to 60 degrees from the listening position. Premium components are used throughout the crossover network including a boundary gain adjustment switch while high-quality gold-plated push type speaker terminals ensure a secure connection. Installation is simple and quick with the new Cat Claw mounting mechanism that allows the speaker to be securely clicked into place freeing up two hands for tightening it down flush to the surface of the ceiling. Round and square zero bezel magnetically attached grilles are included and can be painted to match any décor. The SCL-5 is acoustically designed to match any of the JBL Synthesis Custom Loudspeakers (SCL series) as part of a complete JBL Synthesis immersive audio solution.

Works well.
Color: 2-Speed Rechargeable Set with Base
Close to 5 stars. Only minor complaint is somewhat shorter battery life then expected. But since it is rechargeable, not a big deal. Like the adjustable grinder and the clear container so you can see how much it has.

Great salt and pepper set!
Color: 2-Speed Rechargeable Set with Base
Great salt and pepper set! I love that it has a light that makes it easier to see how much is coming out. Very easy to use, easy to fill, nice selection of grind sizes. It is also nice that it has a base to hold it because there is a very small amount of salt that comes off the bottom so it keeps it from going on the counter while not in use - it's not leaking, just leftover residue from the grind you have just finished.

They’re nice… if they work…
Color: 2-Speed Rechargeable Set with Base
I ordered four of these grinders and two of them broke down while a third never started up. I am honestly disappointed in the failure rate of these otherwise nice grinders. If only one grinder in a two-pack failed, I would’ve just taken it on the chin and moved on. But three out of four total is unacceptable. I like the way they look, and the grind speed and settings are nice. But there’s a serious durability problem they need to fix.

Highly recommend!
Color: 2-Speed Rechargeable Set with Base
This electric mill set is great! The mills stay charged longer than I ever expected, and the operation is consistently very good. Since purchasing these four months ago, I’ve only recharged them once…and our family uses them nearly every day. Having the activator button on the top is the best…no accidental messes like the ones with activators on the side that can be inadvertently touched when grasping the mill. Having a stand to catch the small grind remnants also keeps your counters clean. They are a perfect height—large enough to hold significant product and small enough to not tip over. I also purchased a set for my parents, and they love them as well. Great product!
