Roswell Neptune 8.0 vs JL audio 7.7

Just trying to decide wich pair I should get.
I listened both at the dealer but obviously not at wakeboard distance. Just popping up the volume few sec to not bother everyone in the place.
It's not a fair comparaison but they sounded pretty close.

I only have personal experience with WS tower speaker.
I know JL audio is a top notch audio company but I never heard of Roswell.

Any thoughts? The look ain't bothering me, sound quality at surf and wakeboard distance is more important.
Neptune have no grill (maybe less reliable or it's just the look) but they have a LED ring.
Are JL 7.7 really worth the extra $

Thanks
