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 had a pair of JBL L-200 speakers sitting around here for a few years when I discovered Acoustic Horn Company. In speaking with the owner, Bill Woods, I became convinced that all my L-200 needed was a better horn. This proved to be true.
If you go to:

you can see my project which, I suspect is exactly what you are looking for.
They will play very loud with no breakup and the clearest, most natural, undistorted reproduction I have ever owned.

I bypassed the horn and crossover in the JBLs, mounted the ah300 on top and biamped through a dbx Drive Rack PA. It was a very simple mod.
