The concept of your reviews is one of the best on youtube and I prefer them to many others. In comparison to the original track, however, nearly all speakers in your videos seem to have an early bass roll off, even speakers with a strong bass response like JBL 305P. In addition, the speaker recordings sound like mono reproduction. My only explanation is the Zoom H6 recorder. Perhaps you should (if it is possible) connect better external mics to your recorder.

It's true. I tested both speakers In real life - HS7 has a very shar sound with a lot of details, most people mixing on HS8 and there is reason; JBL 305 - Hi-Fi speaker with a soft blurred sound and deep bass, it's good for drinking.

JBL because I already have larger Yamaha. JBL is more eager, which may be needed to translate certain emotions. Everything else is fine with both. I can hear slight rubber in the Yamaha, but JBL is more metallic. But neither is extreme. I am currently looking for vocals with right emotion (not sad), and unported speakers with fast waterfall, since I am covered for other aspects.

Listening to the original, then the JBL then the Yamaha the JBL seems slightly closer to the original than the Yamaha. I had more success back in the days with JBL monitors than the NS10's to be honest and I actually prefer the JBL sound here to the Yamaha. I can't go by the hype, I have to go by the results and what works for me and that's JBL. Great match up though and both are great monitors in my opinion

For either I wouldn't suggest studio monitors, studio monitors are designed to sound flat and I'm exciting. However the krk rp5 g3s are actually quite hyped sound wise for a studio monitor, especially in the low end, so if you can grab a pair of those second hand for a good price, wouldn't be a bad deal, especially since the g4 is out, the g3s will be much cheaper, you can find cheap pairs on eBay all day long. The g4's however are pretty flat and I wouldn't recomend them unless you're a musician or sound engineer. Rather look at higher end consumer grade speakers, they'll be more fun for gaming and to listen to.

Vox I’d say keep/upgrade your Hi-Fi speakers if you want to strictly listen to music. Studio monitors are built for what they’re named for: mastering work in a studio. They’re not necessarily designed for listening to music, they’re more designed to be a true representation of what you’re mastering so that you can hear any flaws in your mixing/mastering

@@tyya2168 😂 couldn't be further from the truth mate. In reality you can make great mixes with either of these depending what you prefer, but the jbls indeed do have a flatter response and more definition, meaning it's more likely to translate better. Jbl only for listening? You sure about that? JBL is one of the first manufacturers to make a studio monitor, JBL has studio monitors which are over 8k a pair, these are their entry level ones and they're still amazing. These wouldn't be fun just for listening to music on unless you like the sound of something flat and quite uncoloured, which I do but that's because I'm a Music producer and I like to hear music when I listen to it as well how the song was produced without lots of colouration from my listening source.

These are both studio monitors and since we have no idea what the original is played on you can’t say one is better than the other. If the original is being played from a neutral sound source , then monitor that sounds the closest to the original is the best U can’t say simply the Yamaha is better without having any idea what the original sound source is ur just saying that bc ur repeated what u think u should say, ur not thinking. If u look at the frequency curves they are about e same expect the jbl has a high end bump all the way at the end. And the Yamaha has a mid range bump around 1hz. So it’s kinda even. It would be useful if this person actually told us what the original source is. He doesn’t. So these videos are useless

JBL LSR305s have hissing problem and more apparent at night when you are working in a silent room. It is annoying. It's because it uses Class D amp. If you are annoying by hissing problem, don't buy JBL LSR305s or any other JBL powered monitors that uses Class D amps.

Adrian Ronald Sehat I’d suggest to always look at any item’s dimensions in the description area and have a ruler or retractable tape measure at hand. Quite frankly I’d rather see an item in person.... but online “window shopping” nowadays seems to be the norm. We have a huge pro audio store where I live but even they don’t carry many studio monitors on hand as opposed to what they have listed on their online store - and especially the hundreds of headphones you can find online. when I went to the headphonebar in vancouver, while they had a sizeable collection, I couldn’t find many headphones I knew that existed as well; but least one could sample a lot of other headphones one has never heard of before...

No offense but you seem very narrow minded, I'm a professional sound engineer and I know what I'm talking about, as far as entry level studio monitors go, the jbls are solid. And indeed not only sound fuller but are more flat than the HS. I have a friend who sold his HS because he just didn't enjoy working with them, he then upgraded to eve audio which isn't even in the same league as a Yamaha HS, and he loves them, JBL makes proper high end studio monitors you'll see in proper professional studios, you'll see old Yamaha nsm10s in professional studios as well, but unlikely the HS series unless it's a second reference.

@@greendog2529 tight budget? LSR, No questions asked. These monitors just translate super well once you learn them, BUT you will need to get either some iso accoustics stands or fluid audio stands to decouple them, the foam pads simply don't work and due to the cheap construction (not cheap sound or speaker) but construction of the cabinet of the jbl they get a muddy boxy low end placed directly on the desk, with either of these stands however they're outstanding, another excellent option is the Kali LP6 which is made by ex jbl employees, I like both, Adam AX is an amazing monitor I have a pair, however their freq response is quote shallow without a sub for those much needed lows for most electronic music (as I mainly mix myself) the jbl goes down to 43hz which is the same range as only some 7 inch monitors go down to, the fact that not only a budget but a 5' monitor can achieve this is amazing, my only gripe with the JBLS is cheap cabinet construction and maybe sliiightly thin mids, but in this price, even above it, they don't have much competition, in their own right they're great monitors, tbh I prefer them over Dyna Audio LYD. Especially taking price into consideration. Another thing is the JBLs do reveal flaws easily in a mix, and what I like with their low end is that it sounds real and as and it's not some super hyped low end to try make the speaker sound bigger as some manufactures do, JBL got it right, the Low end is very tight and detailed for a 5' monitor, but do note they're rear ported meaning try keep them as far from a wall as possible (on the back end of the monitor) cheers. If I had to choose I'd choose the LSR, I know this monitor very well and I love it's characteristics and super wide sweet spot which is great for small studios and setups with less than ideal positions etc, (that waveguide thing they've got going on really works) The SC205 is amazing however I can't justify the price vs what the JBL offers performance wise, you need to spend quite a lot more money to start getting a significant jump from the JBL's
