    Product Description

    Building on JBL legacy of high-quality sound performance, the 3 series Mk II represents an upgrade of the impressive LSR3 series. These compact, professional quality, powered studio monitors retain the LSR3 series' image control waveguide for incredible detail and imaging, and the broad sweet spot that means you get optimal sound even off-axis. The Mk II series now features updated high-frequency (HF) and low-frequency (LF) transducers, which respectively provide optimized damping for superior transient response and greater linearity that allows impressively deep bass with lower harmonic distortion. Upgrades also include new boundary equalization (EQ), which restores neutral LF response when speakers are placed on the work surface and adjacent walls. Hear for yourself why JBL is legendary in sound performance and quality.

    Can’t go wrong, especially for the price!
    I absolutely love these speakers. I’m an audio post mixer and decided to step up my game and make a proper home studio since covid has forced me to mix from home. I wasn’t going to drop 5 grand on some Genelecs, or even 3 grand on some Adam Audio speakers, and people kept recommending the JBL mk3’s, and they do not disappoint. I have the 308’s for my LCR and the matching sub and I have the 305’s for surrounds. Pair that with the Scarlett 18i20 and it’s a home run. I went to guitar center and listened to pretty much every pro studio monitor they had there and the JBL’s were by far the best sounding, and at $199 on sale, you can’t go wrong. The highs are crystal clear and these speakers have a fantastic low frequency response. I was worried that I’d need 2 subs - one for bass management and one for LFE but the 308’s definitely don’t need bass management in a smaller listening environment. My only complaint is that the volume control knob on the back has detentes so when I was tuning my “room” aka my basement, I could only get within about 1.5dB. Again, not a huge deal and to even get that close for a home studio is amazing. I would recommend these speakers 100%. I’ve been mixing on B&W 803’s for a very long time at my studio and the 308’s are a nice, affordable solution for my home setup.

    Reviewed in Spain on August 25, 2020
    Los monitores son bastante potentes para un estudio mediano con una distancia de metro y medio y dos metros respecto al punto de escucha. Su calidad es sorprendente. Se detectan matices que hasta ahora no detectaba con altavoces de gama media. Agudos detallados pero no excesivos, medios más que aceptables y graves suficientes para no necesitar subwofers. Una buena compra por su relación calidad/precio.
