JBL lsr sounds hyped. If you want hyped sound , why not go for a hifi ^^
I think equator is better in terms of critical mixing.They are not as adams or higher stuff but they are better the jbl lsr. Even Yamaha hs8 is even flatter than equator i think but the better stereo imaging of equator will help u more. Translationwise equator is better than jbl but find some way to check the balance of low. A decent computer 2.1 speaker like altec lansing or sony will do.
