Adam A7x monitor v.s. JBL LSR 4328P

There are so many studio monitors out there to choose from when it comes to the mixing stage. How do you know which one is right for you and the genre of music you’re working with? Well I have two different monitors I like a lot from a personal opinion. The first pair is the Adam A7X Monitors. To me personally these monitors are not very bright but they are very clear for the highs and Mids. I would say these would be great for music geared toward rock and other genres that aren’t big on hearing a lot of the low end. A great spec on this particular brand of monitors is that it uses the ribbon technology. The ribbon tweeter uses a thin diaphragm that supports a planar coil. They are known for reproducing high frequencies. One of the many great specs that make this a great monitor is that it has the X-ART tweeter and advanced version of the ribbon tweeter. The X is just basically representing eXtended frequency response from flat all the way up to 50kHz. In the back of the monitor there is a ¼ unbalanced TRS jack connectors, there is also a balanced female XLR with a high gain (± 4dB). Finally each driver has its own specific amplifier. The 50W A/B amp is responsible for the X-ART tweeter. To this date these speakers have a total of four awards. Next monitor is the JBL LSR 4328P Studio Monitor. Theses monitors are great for RnB, Hip-Hop, Rap, and Dub Step. They are really for any genre that uses a lot of bass or low end in the songs. One of the great features about this particular monitor is that it can calibrate itself to whatever room your in that way it will sound good. There wont be any dead spaces due to all the low end getting trapped in the corners of your room. You would have nice sounding reflections. They are self powered so you don’t need an external amplifier. It has 150 watts of power for the woofer and 70 watts for the high Frequency transducer. The front panel meters show the output levels of the dBFS(decibels Full Scale) when measured at the mix position. Not only does it include a calibration microphone and mic clip but it also has a infrared wireless remote control and a LSR4300 Control Center Software. It has magnetically shielded transducers that minimize interference when used in close proximity to video monitors. Another great feature is the RMC (Room Control Correction) that provides electronic control of room modes.  They have silk dome transducer with Elliptical Oblate Spheroidal Waveguide for precise pattern control. In conclusion I would personally lean toward the JBL monitors because the music I mix uses the bass a lot. Overall these are my top two monitors that I feel sound good there are many other name brands to choose from suck as Mackie, Tannoy, KRK Rokit, Focal, and Yamaha active or passive monitors.
