Anyone have any direct comparisons? I'm looking for something to monitor for a wide variety of electronic music (sound art through to EDM) and mixing the occasional instrumental bits.
Would you consider the JBLs against competitors in this price range?
Have you considered Yamaha HS8? They can be had for buy 1, get one half off $525 US dollars without tax. They go to 50Hz with no loss then drop off. They have more power than the LSR308. I heard the Alpha 80 at AES and they were impressive on the low end but pricey. The Alpha 65 sounded pretty full on the low end as well. But I would go with 8 inch woofers for what you are mixing.
