JBL 250 TI or JBL 4425 please vote

To even the playing field to make a fair comparison I think the thread should have been the 250 TI's vs the JBL 4430. Now its two speakers of equal size and cost.

Ditusa, please tell me who is the overall winnder JBL 250ti or JBL 4430 ?

both are great speakers and different design approaches, however i believe the jbl 4430 is more coherent, more dynamic, better transient response and has better impact on the high and mid freq. now on the other hand, the 250ti's have more detail and the bass is more "in your chest" where the bass in the 4430 is more "in your gut"! overall my vote is with the jbl 4430 as i believe it has a more "live" factor then the 250ti. as a general rule, i compare speakers not to one another but to "live" events.

My vote is JBL 4425!

I own a pair of 4430, and I believe Ditusa does as well.
If WAF is important, probably the 250ti gets the vote.
The 4430 can probably be gotten for less money, but many you find may be very well hammered to death in the studios, and might need some substantial TLC.

I cannot comment on comparisons of sound, but as I understand it, the 250ti is claimed to be one hell of a great speaker. All things being equal, doubtful you would go wrong with either. Mark
