You read the title right! I sold almost my entire speaker collection because of these cheap speakers! Here's why I think the JBL 306P mk2 is the only speaker 99% of people really need.

    I love the appreciation for budget speakersā€¦ everyone will recommend a $1000 pair of speakers, but giving reasons why a $99 pair of speakers are great is harder to find. Thank you!!
  • @MrTanglefur
    Great vid, I have to say it's also been a pleasure to see your channel cinematography evolve this video is so clean and well shot/ edited, really great stuff DMS.

    Ive had the lsr305 for like 8 years now and I dont even feel the need to look for anything better since I love how they sound and how the waveguides work, pretty impressive for the money.
  • @NateTheMeh
    Iā€™ve had the LSR308ā€™s for years and they are truly my endgame. The 8 inch cones with my properly treated room is just magical to listen and mix on. LOVE me some JBLs. Back in my geurilla mixing days I took them to atlanta and they even survived a drop down a stairā€¦ No issues since then!

    Bought a pair of LSR305 + subwoofer as a backup set of speakers years ago and it quickly became my main setup for music production. Been looking into a set of room speakers, for normal listening, that don't require as much of a near-field listening position. I almost fell deep into the Hi-Fi rabbit hole but these seem like a great option, and I can stick with 1/4"/ XLR connections on the gear I already have. Also, loving the ultrawide video format.
  • Nice! Iā€™ve got the 305 mk 2 in my studio and have always loved the sound.
  • Thanks for the review! And here I've been thinking of getting a pair of these to upgrade my JBL LSR30X (yep, the Drop-customized LSR305 in piano black) speaker and moving the 30Xs to my bedroom.
  • @editorlaserna
    This video is GREAT! I never had this set into account. You just opened my eyes. You should do next - an ultra cheap Hifi audio system, I would like to see with what you come up with šŸ˜®
  • Yes! Much like you after getting a pair of LSR 305ā€™s for my studio it made me re-evaluate all my other speakers. They are fantastic and still in my studio after several years. Got rid of my other speakers in my life and went JBL Studios 5 series 5.2 system in the den, JBL Stadium speakers in my car, JBL 300tws earbuds and a Charge 5 and man am I hearing some of the best audio I have ever heard where ever I am now.

    Got a pair of these to use in my living room. They work amazingly, both for general content and dedicated music listening. And I picked up a pair for $200 off ebay that were basically just open box returns with some slight cosmetic damage. Thanks for the recommendation and review of these! Can't wait to see what the projects you have in the pipeline, like an update on the speakers.

    This series is well known for their wide sweet spot, as well as for being a tad noisy. I use these exact ones for my composition and practice keyboard lab, and removed the sub (Presonus) in the end as these are delivering a great full band representation.
  • @luda9201
    i have always liked your videos, but I really feel you have found a very nice production that suits your style since your office move, really nice stuff :)
  • @camoturtle18
    Can you please make a more generic video about getting started with speaker setups? I have no idea where to get startedā€¦ All I know is headphone amps and dacs etc, that equipment I know very well, but I am clueless as to how to begin setting up a speaker setup.
  • @jimashby43
    Depending on the subwoofer, I've found about 80hz works with the 305s,306s and about 65-80 depending on movies or music for the 308s. I've had a lot of fun with all of them. Love Magnapans but they need so much room to bloom.
  • Great video and sick Hakke hoodie, thanks for the content!
  • @philrfranklin
    Kali LP-6 V2 are said to be a great contender for these speakers at only a marginally higher price point. I would love to see a comparison video!
  • @MrGhostVortex
    I own a pair, and matched to a Schiit Modius/Magnius stack running balanced/XLR...can confirm, fantastic set!
