With them I had to switch out the Super II's in my guitar to Super Distortions (Dual Sounds) because it was too glassy, but I really never liked the Super II's anyways.Did you use the E-120's prior to switching PU's?

Break in time was not longer than any other speaker that I've ever owned.

It would still be nice to hear from someone who's heard them, though, as to how JBL-like they are.I can buy Emi's at dealer prices, i haven't done it yet because of the way the Weber's sound and weigh. I'd like to hear them to see if they're worth a shit, but don't really want to get stuck w/ yet another 25# of speaker I have no interest in using. I've got a basement full of e120's already fitting that description.

I just bought two, put them in a HT 2x12 cab and have played them through my Alembic, my Schecter hollow body and my SG and man oh man, nothing - absolutely nothing sounds like these. I am so addicted, I'm forgetting to eat at night!.These are original cones. I'm scratching my arms, rocking and salivating right now. I need to get home.....muble mumble mumble...Yeah dude, they kill. End. of. story.
Peace,
