    I think I prefered the Yamaha HS8 in this test. It seems more clear sounding, however the JBL might be better for longer listening sessions with it's more inoffensive sound.

    the same track is playing, seamlessly, but the speakers switch back and forth? did you actually record the speakers playing or edit in the tracks? I turned my monitor off and the sound never changes on my Tektons

    It's crazy how the HS series sound different (and better) as you go up in size. HS5 is unbearable and sounds like a broken toy, HS7 is better but kinda harsh, but HS8 is pure heaven.

    They are close. JBL has more accented highs but overall I would tak HS8 due to less fatiguing and smoother sound.

    This comparison tells you almost nothing. There’s a reason why this is not done. The recording equipment colors the sound. Both monitors are great for the money, but the listening test is nearly worthless. Bad demo. Just show the graphs (which are the same over and over again BTW).

      The choice doesn't matter for you, if you cannot tell the difference. Being a mixing engineer i can tell about the significant differences even when i hear this through pods. If i hear this on my setup. It is like comparing apples and oranges
