Speaker shootout: Jensen C12K vs Eminence 1228k

Which sounds better?

Amp: Fender '65 Deluxe Reverb Reissue

Amp settings:
Vibrato Channel
Volume: 2
Bass: 5
Treble: 5
Reverb: 2

It's not my ideal setting, but I choose it to get a flat response.

Mic: Shure SM-58

No effects or EQ were used after recording. Same mic position, same amp position, same cable, same guitars, setted all knobs on 10.

Interesting, but have you choosen which you like the best?

@bennettskb555 Jensen is far better for me. I usually set the treble on 6-7 and bass on 5. Sounds perfect to me. To get a good sound with eminence alnico, I had to set treble on 2!

jensen is better!!!!!!!!

Aside from the obvious sound differences, the Eminence speaker also makes your hair longer. Awesome.

at 2.25 the eminance is way better

[UKToneKing]

the eminance seems to have more sparkle, its brighter, but the jenson is a warmer sounding speaker, if I had to pick one it would be the jenson, but the eminance is great to, both together would be real nicer

[gwanksta]

for recording i would choose the eminence

[audioware1]

C12K is more balanced tonewise.

Any opinion on the C12K2?

could you tell me your recording equipments? i mean we know the mic shure sm-58 but what is for software and for external sound card. Do you also have mic preamp?

[ElectromaticG5120]

I think you may need to combine these speakers to let them complement eachother.
