JBL 308P MkII Powered 8-inch Two-Way Studio Monitor

JBL 308P MkII has been equipped with acclaimed 3 Series transducers that now perform even better. Hear deep, accurate and tightly controlled bass, thanks to a long-throw 8-inch woofer and the patented JBL Slip Stream low-frequency port. Enjoy soaring, immaculately detailed highs, via its woven-composite 1-inch Neodymium tweeter.

JBL engineers took things to the next level with faster HF transient response through fine-tuned ferrofluid damping, and greater low-frequency linearity and reduced harmonic distortion courtesy of an enhanced woofer design. The result is a studio monitor you can trust - with unmatched performance, stunning imaging and neutral frequency response that’s unbeatable in its class.

Tailored Sound to Fit Your Studio

The dimensions and acoustics of a room can have a major effect on sonic accuracy, and that’s why JBL 308P MkII lets you adjust the response to fit your studio. The new Boundary EQ attenuates the low-end boost that can occur when you place monitors directly on the desktop or near walls. The 3-position HF Trim switch allows you to adjust the high-frequency response of the 308P MkII to tailor it to room acoustics or personal tastes.

Patented Image Control Waveguide

Reveal impressive detail, ambiance and depth in your mixes with JBL 3 Series’ groundbreaking Image Control Waveguide. Originally developed for JBL’s flagship M2 Master Reference Monitor, this patented innovation ensures an acoustically seamless transition between the low- and high-frequency transducers and provides an immersive soundstage, with precise imaging. Offering a wide sweet spot and neutral frequency response, JBL 308P MkII delivers a crystal clear representation of your mix, revealing subtle details, even when listening off-axis.

Big Sound Out of the Box

JBL 308P MkII is ready for the most demanding production styles right out of the box. With 112 watts of total power, the dual, integrated Class-D power amplifiers, custom designed by JBL for each transducer, give you generous dynamic range for any project. From music production and podcasting to cinematic sound design or daily vlogging, enjoy the output and power you need to hear exceptional detail at any volume - even at peak SPL. Simply plug in, power on, and start creating.

JBL 308P MkII Powered 8" Two-Way Studio Monitor 2-way studio monitor

JBL 308P MkII Powered 8-inch Two-Way Studio Monitor SKU: 308PMKII

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Gerat Studio Monitors! I've been looking for some time the right solution for my small studio. It's a 12ft x 13ft space. Most of the time I was listening to HiFi music through my high-end headphones, but at times I just wanted to take them off and continue to listen to music. I had other speakers that sounded flat. I hooked this directly to an iFI DAC and magic! The sound is very neutral, the highs are very clear, the bass powerful enough. Now I find myself listen more without my headphones.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great bass response and amazing stereo field I bought to produce my songs and I know I have a pair of the best monitors I could buy in its price range and even more expensive ones would not be as suitable for my needs (EDM/Urban). And yes, there is a hiss that is just normal for professional monitors and they are inaudible as soon as any audio signal comes from them.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Precise and dependable! It is said that “You are as good as the tools you work with” and I couldn’t be happier with these monitors. As a passion, I do remix work in my home studio and for the first time I am able to listen to my projects and hear amazing sounds I didn’t hear before. My work has improved so much more because of all the details these monitors provide.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Impressive build and sound quality. I use a pair of JBL 306P MkII's for studio monitors and for music playback, song accompaniment during guitar practice and pleasure listening. Really, for a set of reasonably priced powered monitors, they sound fantastic. I run them from my PC through a DAC directly to each speaker. Impressed by the sound and the build quality. Purchased and shipped directly from JBL. Great experience. Would buy again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Even, present sound I’m using a pair of these monitors for a home recording setup in an apartment. While distortion at higher volumes isn’t something I’ll typically experience, I heard none in a brief test. These speakers work great in my bedroom setup. The sound is evenly balanced for the guitar-based music I’m recording, with bass that isn’t too boomy and accurate reproduction of my source audio.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Quality / Sound I am enjoying these monitors in my home studio. Originally purchased without the subwoofer (LSR310S), but added that and now is feels complete. Very happy with the quality and sound for my application. Crispy highs and great bass frequency response (more so with the addition of the LSR310S).
