i am going to buy a pair of 1 inch drivers. i have three options: JBL 2425, EV dh2t and Peavey 22xt. the price i get is more or less the same. i am building a pair of Pi 4 speakers, with a JBL 2226. pros and cons of each one? which one would you recommend?
The JBL 2425 is very similar to the current product offering of the 2426. I use 2425's and like them better than other drivers in that price range. I don't hear any difference in the 2426 either.
The 22xt I find to be harsh and fatiguing to listen to. It does not have as good an extension in the upper freqs as the JBL.
Pilkar, You already have a JBL bottom end 15", the 2425 will mesh just right together. Other than if you mentioned a Altec driver for same money, and even then is only personal preference between the two of them, if you were wanting to break the wallet, I have heard that TAD is the best out there. Of course I am partial to the JBL/ALtec combo as that is what I have.
I have run my drivers on: Altec 811B's/511B's, Edgarhorn and Martinelli, last 2 are solid wood horns which I like very much.
Just take this as my opinion, I hope it helps you out :-)
