Speakers are the most accurate I've ever owned, just plain awesome for any production, music, cinematic production/editing, why spend $4000 for some studio monitors when you can have the accuracy, the bass reproduction and the beauty for a mere fraction of the price? I'm officially a "JBLien" (no biting my phrase) my house is covered in jbl speakers, for home theater, studio and personal/portable audio use

I had to boost the high frequencies to get these studio monitors sounding more like the Event 20/20BAS studio monitors that I used for 20-years. Using the 7-band Graphic EQ in my Onkyo HT-RC370 receiver I had to boost the 6,300Hz frequency +5dB and the 16,000Hz frequency +6dB to get these studio monitors sounding best to my ears. On the back of the JBL LSR308 studio monitors I increased the LF (Low Frequency) +2dB and left the HF (High Frequency) switch in the center. With any speaker I want to hear the super low bass all the way up to the super-high frequencies; These JBL LSR308 studio monitors lacked in the super-high frequencies area [Imagine turning the treble down; You'd lose that crisp clarity of all the sounds; That's what these studio monitors sounded like with my ears]. So after making those changes I am finally happy with the sound I am getting from these studio monitors. These JBL LSR308 studio monitors have a little more low-end than the (Version 3) Event 20/20BAS studio monitors that I use to own for 20 years. These studio monitors are not as tight, punchy, clean, crisp, responsive as they Event 20/20BAS studio monitors because they don't have as much power [The lack of power makes these studio monitors sound a little blended, mushy, less responsive/punchy/tight]. The LED light is white and a little bright/distracting for my eyes [I plan to buy congo blue light filter material to cut a little piece and place it over the LED light to make it dimmer and a dark blue color]. I would have made the JBL logo at the bottom light up in a dark blue color instead. For FUTURE models I recommend they allow a person to boost the super high frequencies with switches on the back, have more power to make them more responsive/tight sounding, and have the JBL logo at the bottom light up when the studio monitors are ON.Read full review

For near field speaker, most we think about jbl lsr 3 series and the yamaha hs's..Well, of cause both are good, and the yamaha hs's is more balanced. But jbl lsr 3 is very good at imagining. A good DAC will let both speaker hear different, studio monitor can accurate reproduction the quality of sound. Last, money range, What I can say is, jbl lsr 3 series not the best choice for your little room, because it bigger then you think. At this price range, I would say jbl 3 is the best. Remember, don't forget the sub. Buy the sub, place at the center, make image and sound like live.

IMO KRK's has punchier bass, but the JBLs have better highs. Overall, great reference speaker. Decent all-black look.
