Your Advice Requested For Floor Speaker Purchase...plz Help?

[D-MANN]

OK-
My brain is FRIED from all the research I have done the past few months on floor speakers.
I need help and request your best advice.

Can I get a review on the following two floor speakers?

-Celestion (F30) 5 1/4" 3-Way Tower Speaker

-JBL STAGE Venue Series 6" 3-Way Floorstanding Speaker

I have no other model options...because I am purchasing one of these models from the Base Exchange store(I'm in the US Air Force).

So those two speakers are my ONLY choices.

What do you recommend?

I am all ears...THANKS!

Hi and welcome,

The Celestions are reviewed on AR in the Review section. Not sure about the JBL. But if it were my green I go for the Celestion.
It is in my mind a more refind speaker.
Good Luck.

Peace

hmm, hard choice, the celestions might be better in some ways, the jbl's will go a few hz lower, though, so heres what i think
celestions:
+the celestions are more refined
+have 2 midrange/bass drivers
-the 2 woofers are smaller then the jbl's drivers, but that one only haves one woofer.

jbl's
+they go lower then the celestions
+haves the bigger bass driver
-haves only one bass driver

note that these are only a few things i came up with, there will be more i think, when you get the chance of hearing them, do that, this will help alot.
your genre of music might be important too.

JBL's are considered more highly on another forum I frequent. I'd get those.

Though I think you'll be happy with either choice.

Thank you all....

I just purchased the CELESTION speakers for my new SAMSUNG 40 inch LCD.

x2 CELESTION F30
x1 CELESTION F35C
Total $219.99(F30) + $75.99(F35C) = $295.98....NO TAX!

When I have the system all hooked up, I will let you all know how it sounds.

thanks very much!
