its revealing the differences between the Alnicos and Ceramics. That said, the X preamp didn't effect the sound as much as I would think (or as those online say it does). the problem with tests like this is things are not the same when plugged in to an amp; the X preamp might sound more dramatic there.

Hello
I think the JAX sound more natural..
On the new Yamaha BB Line we have a mix between alnico and ceramic..
And it sound punchy and round...
