    Did a comparison today between the New J&M and the JBL, to my ear I liked the JBL and that is what will stay in the 6 and the J&M's will go on the shelf .

    Thanks for the comparison report. Can you quantify your preferences (bass, midrange, tweeter, clarity, volume, etc.) ?

    To be honest with you, and I would like to be honest with you, no I can't. Although I love to listen to music I listen to so much music over the years on shty speakers never messed with controls because it made no difference. I always have my son's set the bass and treble and all of that crap because he's young and has a good ear for it. The JBls were better to me than the new J&M's and much better than stock so I just said hell yeah these are staying in there I like the sound. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

    So where is the best setting for treble and bass?

    I normally leave my treble at zero and my bass at like +2 or +3

    +2 on Bass and -1 on the Treble sounds right to my ears.

    Good on you Chop. If you like it then they sound just right.

    Obviously not knowing a lot about speakers other than the fact that I bought more in the last 2 weeks than in my whole life, I have to say those stock speakers have to be WAY on the low end of speakers. The J&Ms were better but the JBL's appeared to be a good quality speaker, and sounded pretty good for the money, not to speak of the enjoyment they will bring.

    You may end up wearing those speakers out prematurely; with that much bass and exaggerated moment of the diaphragm....
