I know the word "better" is subjective. But for a FRFR monitor on stage, in a loud band setting, for top 40 modern rock cover band stuff (i.e. Shinedown, Van Halen, Alice In Chains, etc.), which do you think would be the best option to go with? I'd like to find a monitor that can give me something close to the "amp in the room" feel, while doing a solid job of producing the tones/profiles as close to the original as possible. Ideally, if the monitor sounds great, I won't need to also use a guitar cab on stage and will just run direct to FOH.
I can get the Friedman and the Yamaha for basically the same price. So throw cost out the window and base this simply on which cab you would go with in the above scenario.
