high end jbl or horns or emerald physics c1

i recommend a pair of jbl 4430 or jbl 4435 studio monitors. you will not go wrong regardless of the type of music you want to listen to. if you dont want a 2 way spekaer, how about a pair of 4355 studio monitors which are 4 way? excellent detail regardless of your taste in music. flush mounting the monitors reduces defraction distortion, this is one reason it is done in studios and this is the way i have all my monitors set up. also lets not forget, the first powered/active speaker was the jbl hartsfields (1960) with tube amplification. always compare speakers to live events not to other speakers. if you try that you will take the politics out of buying. if you would like any other info regarding these speakers dont hesitate to email me and perhaps i can help.

I second Ditusa suggestions.

Look into Tannoy before you decide. I have owned most all vintage Klipsch am I altec JBL collector as well as other vintage loudspeakers. And a Tannoy monitors is a good step up in performance over the vintage kit. Some guys have near give away prices on there tannoy studio monitors.

I do like other music. Good alt.country??? Cartoon Classical, Old Smokey 2am Miles Davis or HH.

I kind of like toys, somewhat high end. I saw some JBL 9800's and the really high end 60k summit(?) I saw for sale a while back for about 12k but they are gone now.Are they worth the money? Those are the jbl's I am looking for. I do want those "God Balls" that Jaybo speaks of. Plz tell me model numbers

I have atc100's german physics,meridian,legacy to no avail. I loved my martin logan stats and if they could play louder thats what I want. I did see the Edgar Horn at ces one year and really liked but bought the gp's.

I do want the live sound and 'feel' so call it what you want. We all played in bands, bro in law is a professional trumpet player. I go to venues in clubs a couple times a month.
So i read about the emerald physics and thought i would post and ask.

I am leaning toward a custom 4 way horn built by some old altec lansing folks in the area. But resellability is a concern.
Maybe Obama can help?

Do some research on Urei 813's. I think they might be just what you are looking for.
