high end jbl or horns or emerald physics c1

Can anyone give me their opinions. I saw a pair of jbl's for sale for about the price of the Emerald Physics c1's. I still have my burmester 956 amp but have been looking at ML or I have some high power tube amps laying around I could use.

I have the ML 390's front end. Looking for some eq for the system also.

I mainly listen to rock music. Alt. rock and Classic rock at "extended realistic" volumes.

I have some jbl 4733 that have the output wanted but no finesse.(?) I like my old altec lansing studio monitors the best so far for what i listen to.

???

I'd check out Westlake BBSM 12 - these will have you smiling and rocking out - used around $3K.

Expand your listening tastes and buy speakers that can play all types of music. =8^)

I first thought my JBLs were king, no other speakers in the world can beat it. Oh boy, how much I was wrong.

Oldrockstar knows what he wants and explained what he wants and asked for help in getting realistic (dynamic) sound reproduction. He has probably been in a band and knows the feel of how it really sounds. FWIW - Dr Floyd Toole believes musicians and sound engineers listen differently from ordinary folks. He believes that untrained folks prefer more ambience and reverberation and coloration whilst musicians have a heightened sense to coloration and tend to prefer a clean transparent or "raw" or "thin" sound. Horses for courses...
