    Hi there! Many of You where asking what is the difference between new JBL 305P MKII and older JBL LSR305 and does this difference actually matters. Well, today we will answer those questions.
    From the outside the differences are very limited, 305P MKII uses more of a shiny and easy to scratch plastic on the front panel compared to the old model. Changes to the front panel in my opinion are not very fortunate, I do prefere the older matte finish better, it is easier to keep clean and looks less cheap. From the technical point of view the internals are mostly the same, but the new model now sports the auto off function which the old model lacked. One thing that did not change is the level of hiss coming from the tweeters, the new model will annoy many users with that as the old model did.
    Soundwise I would say that both models are very hard to destiguish. There will be no real improvment in sound quality in going from LSR305 to 305P MKII l which is a bit of a pity to be honest. Maybe bigger 306P will bring something more to the table soundwise, I will try to find out soon.
    If You where wondering if there is a point in "upgrading" from LSR305 to 305P MKII than my short answer is NO. JBL 305P MKII is just a slight facelift that brings very little new to the table except for some shiny plastic and auto off function. But if You are in the market for new monitors comin from lesser models than JBL 305P MKII is very soild proposition, one of the best in this price range actually.
    What do You think? Which model looks better to You? Let me know in the comments below! Cheers!

    It's funny because a lot of factors are influencing, including the inherent frequency response of the room where the comparison is recorded, the frequency response of your room if you're listening to this on a monitor, or the frequency response of your speakers.
    In my case I had the LSR305 for more years, very good. A few months ago I acoustically conditioned my room, bought the new LSR305PMKII, I was also impressed. To the MKII they added a material to improve the DAMPING of the speakers, this makes the transients feel much more, there is more punch and greater definition therefore in everything that has textures so it sounds more relevant, in my opinion this is very nice, they feel much more the attack of the guitars, the consonants of the voices, everything that is detail is more evident, I just made the difference between the two and it really is worth changing to the new ones. If you feel very bright you can reduce them with the filter.

      both JBL do no precise bass and have to few damp. maybe you hear it better try in the deep song begin at 5 min 57 boost with EQ 64 hz + 5 db and hear with headphone. then you can hear that the longer low bass of the drum the JBL produce is not in original. the deep song when boost 64 hz is good to test if speaker have unprecise bass

      @@user-lw9py Remember, frequencies below 500hz become victim to room response, nulls and peaks will be introduced even to the flattest speaker even in the very best of rooms. Both these speakers are recorded in a room (which adds a coloration) via a microphone (which add coloration) into the DAW and then we hear them via UA-cam (which adds compression) and then our equipment and speakers (which add speaker and room coloration) or headphones that add their own coloration. I love these tests to compare how one speaker sounds to the next in comparison to the original signal and in the context of the rooms and the and limitations above. The bass anomalies you hear might be a combination of all the factors above. Cheers!

      yes i know, but hear the deep song on his video M-Audio BX5 D3 vs KRK Rokit 5 RP5G3 || 5 Track Comparison in same room. bass is much more precise as from JBL and same loud on both. deep song is at 3 min 47 sec. I think the most precise bass is in the maudio bx 5 or presonus . the klipsch have precise bass too but because this base drum is on low frequency silent can not compare. frequency diffrence can compensate with EQ but a unprecise bass stay allways unprecise

Planning on buying a subwoofer but there's yet to have any comparisons on the various brands to choose from. I do hope that one day you would compare studio subwoofers like the JBL LSR310S, Yamaha HS8S, PreSonus Temblor T10 and KRK 10S.

      LSR305 with subwoofer is a great setup. Regarding brand of the sub, I have tested quite a few of them (KRK 10s and Temblor T8 to name a few) and most of them worked similarly well. If You can find used KRK 10s in good condition than I would suggest buying it, mine felt like it was build to last centuries

    Great comparison. Seems like it's a tradeoff.. with the MK II you get a tighter presentation (in a good way) but brighter also. With the 305P you get a somewhat duller sound, but warmer and more relaxing. So the winner, for me, depends on the track, and even depends on what PART of the track is playing.

      When you're used to work with speakers with lack of bass frequencies like the SLR or Yamaha HS, you say that kind of silly stuff, do not confuse flat response with lack of bass, that's why mostly of the modern producers are overwhelming the bass frequencies on their mixes, because they always go with the trendy stuff without check if those speakers are really flat, the MkII are better in all the ways, that's why they have the Namm award to the best studio monitors, over Yamaha, KRK, Adam and other brands.
      I know JBL is a very known brand but, say the old 305 sounds more flat than the new one, idk, you must check your ears, is just my opinion.

    305 monitors have good reviews on the Internet.
    So I found your channel, and watched almost all the videos.
    It is informative. I concluded that the 305 may be one of the best monitors in its price segment, but the sound of household speakers, not monitors, turned out to be more pleasant.
    AirPulse A300 Edifier S1000DB sound better, maybe not so "truthfully", but more colorful and beautiful.
    Sound 305 is quite hard, but in a300 there is melody and openness of sound, space and air.
    I also liked the sound color of the KRK monitors, but these are my individual preferences.
    KRK sounds quite warm and fascinating because of the average frequency.

    Hum... I didn't think is going to be much of a difference when they were talking about faster transients and I thought it's just a marketing BS but, I guess I was wrong.
    The sound is a bit more crisp and better separated which is nice to see they improve them but, to be honest I wanted more.
    It's not enough to be worth upgrading from the old model.
    I like that the screws are not visible anymore and the integrated light into the logo is quite nice but, I don't like the glossy finish at all.

    MKII sounds very HI-FI'ish to me, they have elevated boomy bass (which they can't reproduce precisely apparently) and elevated high-end (to create the illusion that they are more detailed I guess, as I don't hear much difference in the transients definition, it's just brighter). The first generation sound is much more balanced and closer to the source tracks.

    Wow I've got lsr305p and I actually don't want to upgrade to MKII. I think JBL just realised that the performance / price ratio was so damn high on their first version that they've just chose to make some minor changes to it , added new shiny look and sell it for more money.
    But in my opinion not everything that is shining is golden...
    Still a good price / performance ratio with MKII though and maybe new 6" version will be really interesting...

    I bought JBL 306P and tested it for a bit. I also have KRK Rokit 8 G2.
    The things I didn't like:
    Con 1. The twitter actually defines a big chunk of what's bad about the JBL 3 series sound: it sounds harsh and compressed, and the thing is too small in radius for efficient work it seems. The waveguide construction only helps to spread sound more evenly, its quality isn't enhanced by it.
    Con 2: There's no bass in the "sweet spot", you have to really move within the room to start hearing it.
    Con 3. The amplifier is very noisy when there's no signal.
    What I liked:
    Pro 1. Overall sound is belivable. Despite all its shortcomings, I feel like I can critically listen to my mixes on this thing. Yes, it doesn't sound as pleasing as say the Mackies, but it sounds more balanced and true enough.
    Pro 2. When I found the spot in my room (near a back wall corner)... the bass became immensly good. I can't place my workstation there, but I can stand and listen from time to time, and the bass is so deep and rich, my 8" KRK Rokits don't even come close...
    Overall it's really sad that JBL didn't use a better twitter since all the competitors have much better twitters, but overall this thing provides an ability to mix on a budget device.

    Las únicas diferencias son estéticas, uno es con brillo y otro mate y a uno se le ven los tornillos,lo cual puede ser hasta mejor para un desmontaje y al nuevo se le han ocultado.No tengo ninguno pero los he estado analizando y son iguales,misma placa mismo altavoz,todo,la diferencia es sólo estética.

    • @cl2nden1st89
      @cl2nden1st89 5 років тому

      Miloš Sládečka Well, you will be annoyed by the hiss from the Kali as well. If you don’t want hiss, just try to avoid class D powered monitors in general. Fortunately, the Kali are superior to the JBLs and are front ported. If reviews online are to be believed, they are not as fatiguing as the JBL - that alone is worth more to me than any other attribute.

That combined with the slight peak in the upper mid range around the crossover point,turns me off a bit. I was really hoping they'd fix all that in the new version.
