Never heard a pair of JBL's I'd want to live with, but some of the Revel models show promise. Speaker choice is very subjective and personal, as well as room and system dependent..
JBL I have had: L25,L36,L40,L120,L300,AquariusIV(2),S1,4408. Currently have L65,L100,L222,DorianS12,B380. The L222 is the daily driver. Working on connecting the B380 wirelessly. The Dorian’s are my original pair from the late 60s. The L222 are from the late 70s.
The Revel studio 2s are nice for a smaller room, but the Salon2s very nice for a larger room. Smooth top end, very deep, great midrange. Not as resolving as more modern tweeters, but easy on the ears.
