JBL G300 vs The Competition

The results of the comparison with the DT SM 45 are in. BTW-- MO is that the 45 is a better spkr than the 65.

Bass expression did improve withe the 45's( enabling me to dispense with the hphones) on the following:

Dizzy Miss Lizzy
How Can I Be Sure
A Girl Like U
I Feel Fine
Day Tripper
Babys In Black(L)
Darlin(L)
R & R Music.

The 45's are quite impressive and I may end up with them but for now a test of the Canton 502.2 will follow.

I also tested Stoney End & the G300 came out on top there as well.

One correction as Its Gonna Be All Right can be tweaked so it sounds as good on both speakers. This leaves the SM65 as a clear winner on only 4 tracks

After a couple of weeks the results are as follows.

I didn't get to the first 5 or Money but there were also some editions--

Please Please Me
World W/O Love
Memphis-- Lonnie Mack
Dizzy Miss Lizzy
Youre Going To Lose That Girl
Dead Mans Curve
Cant Buy Me Love

The results are:

G300-- 17
DT---- 5

The bass response in the G300 was almost always clearly better than the DT's-- despite the 30 claim.

The 5 DT votes were for Fun Fun Fun-- not necessarily better bass in this one but incredible guitars especially in the beginning. I think I know now what is meant by sound stage.

Rock & Roll Music-- better bass with the DT's here. Enough where I can dispense with the Hphones

Its Gonna Be All Right

Cant Buy Me Love

Dizzy Miss Lizzy

On 2 they both sounded good--- Roll Over Beethoven & World W/O Love

I have never heard a bass recording more awesome than the latter.

The verdict then is clearly for the JBL's and the 65's are going back. It should be noted that I had a pair of SM45's but didn't test them fully-- presuming the 65's would be better. I intend on testing the 45 again because the bass seemed better on them.

But first will be the Monitor Audio Bronze BX-2

I thought there was an edit function. At any rate, 3rd from last should read Its
